Sure. But I'm not going to write an essay to back my position right now with numerous examples.
I respect many of the far lefts beliefs like economic policy, pressure against the right wing, social policies supporting poor. I don't respect the extreme distrust of media, violent retoric (when I see it), ideological purism, because it comes off as culty
Should note that I see less violent retoric from the far left than the far right, hence "when I see it"
I don't believe the horseshoe theory. Far left and far right have a number of stark differences such as religion, economic policy, etc. I just believe that both sides are fringe cult-like environments, particularly when it comes to isolating yourselves and ideology control. Occasionally, I see other similarities.
Imo, far left isn't clearly closer to the far right in most beliefs, except cult-like behavior
The statement is that far left makes similarly culty statements like "X entity is hiding evidence that supports our views from the general public". It's the "everyone except us lies" part of the culty belief. My statement is that both far left and far right have fringe beliefs that are culty or close to it.
I never said those were equal statements
Sometimes the further left extremes I've heard hear are indistinguishable from conservative Q-Anon. I legitimately need to check users post histories to understand which extreme they are on
Before Lemmy, I didn't know it was possible to go so left that you hated liberals.
Russian bots have been noted rewriting history on Wikipedia for Baltic and ex-ussr countries recently too. I read about #estonia having to fight to preserve accurate history about Soviet imperialism on Wikipedia.
It was also noticable that contra-US bots were driving polarization leading up to the US election. There were a number of topics that went silent the day after election.

Could be true, but this suggests weak evidence.
I automatically assume Redditors are bots from some state actor. I've seen enough obvious campaigns that it's impossible for me to trust anymore
I knew most of it was spam. I just figured it was propaganda from various governments
I think they're complaining any Google DNS. It's just a privacy matter. Google will heavily track your DNS requests
