There's been a lot of brigading or bot activity in the last 12 hours.
I hope those brigadiers all work in the same office building in Moscow!
What are these downvotes you are talking about? I see -right at this moment- 43 up- and 0 downvotes when logged in via kbin, 47/6 on sopuli.xyz and 45/6 from another lemmy instance.
Maybe it's a networking/federation problem you are seeing?
You probably don't see them because you're on Kbin. It's visible from several other instances.
As I said... it's still only 6 downvotes when seen from other instances (including the one where it originated from).
A ratio of nearly 10 to 1 upvotes to downvotes is not what I would expect to trigger a complain about downvotes, bots and brigading.
So I actually assumed he did not see the upvotes properly...
They get them all at once, minutes after posting. That's why it's suspicious, each post was essentially starting with negative votes. See below:
Bread gonna be the new eggs soon.
What can the world do to make Russia's food prices increase? At this point, Russia is becoming a deadly threat to nations across the globe.
Would preemptive strikes on ICBM launch sites and subs be effective in de-fanging this conservative dictator? Complicated answers only.
