I’m more annoyed they’re intermingled. The small userbase here isn’t posting enough to fill a feed, but the bots do make things weird.

If you’re in a news community, politics, tech space, etc. it can be pretty annoying to have both bots and users posting. Maybe if it was a news community that was only bots or no bots, that would be an improvement.

It’s definitely a problem here. They spam to every news community, then brigade the votes. And, they use a bunch of alt accounts on different instances.

Lol, oh good, they’ve seen this. I forgot to mention, they also brigade. 5 downvotes in 5 minutes.

Edit: 10 downvotes in 10 minutes. Nice

Lemmy.ml also has a lemmygrad instance that is spamming propaganda and disinformation in all the news / politics subs. The !worldnews here is just about useless since it’s 75% lemmygrad users and their alts spamming nonsense.

You changed the headline of this one also? What is your deal man? Just here to stir shit up?

Yes? Wtf do you mean? Does UN secretary general asserting his own opinion through a deputy spokesman does not equate to the UN rejecting shit.

Antonio Guterres is the Secretary General of the Secretariat. He does not speak for the UN on policy. Which, is exactly why your quote from Forbes says “Guterres was against the use of cluster munitions” not “UN Rejects”. The UN hasn’t done shit. They’ve not made a rejection statement or vote. They’ve not “condemned” anything.

One dude, through a deputy spokesman, at a morning briefing, said he didn’t like it.

Dont worry man, I’m up to speed on cluster munitions. Again, not the issue here. The issue is your link and headline. They aren’t true.

Munitions have nothing to do with it.

Lol, I’m a scumbag?

You spend all day posting sketchy ass news from sketchy ass websites that have sensational, nonsense headlines.

This is serious shit, not your play place. The use of cluster munitions and the US’ decision to send them are very important, very real things that are happening.

I don’t have an opinion, and haven’t expressed one here on the use of cluster munitions. My opinion is that you’re a spamming misinformation spreader whose @ pops up in my feed 30 times a day.

Why is telesureenglish the only news site on earth covering this?

Because, the UN didn’t “reject” anything.

“Accordingly, (Guterres) does not want cluster bombs to continue to be used on the battlefield,” Farhan Haq added.

Wtf is Farhan Haq? The deputy spokesman?

The UN didn’t say a word. Guterres hasn’t said a word. A deputy spokesman said Guterres said “he does not want them”.
