It doesn’t make sense that they would only serve propaganda to right-wingers and tankies. Maybe they’re focusing them because it’s easier, but it wouldn’t make sense to only do it to approximately half the population when they can do it to the full spectrum.
Or maybe there’s evidence of the right wing because it was easier to catch.
We should all be critical of propaganda, if you think “ah, it’s the other guys that are getting all the propaganda”, you’ve just become an easier target.
First of all, I am not uncritical of any “side”. And there’s a lot of different propaganda coming from a lot of different sources. To be honest I at least partially agree with your reasoning, and I think that reason is sufficient enough to form opinions. However, I object to the characterization that someone is a bot because they disagree with a particular narrative, for example the mainstream narrative of the democratic party who is responsible for pushing this bot paranoia, and making up a lot of the hysteria leading up to it.
Like just because something exists, doesn’t mean that someone who disagrees is a bot. Wasn’t long ago Democrats were saying that calling for a cease fire in Gaza was a Russian narrative. even if it was, that doesn’t make it wrong to speak out about.
Don’t need evidence to support a feeling.
