I notice a large number of ragebait-y political communities being spun up by new users with thousands of posts & ai profile header photos. I notice comment sections are more acrimonious, and foreign disinfo talking points are circulating a lot more prolifically than before the US election started ramping up.

Anyone else notice this? Any idea on how to combat it on this platform? Are there any communities built around creating block lists of obvious troll/ai/disinfo accounts & communities?

      Anything that doesn’t bring up an immediate association with Elon Musk and friends is better. I hear mind virus and I just immediately remember “woke mind virus” and have an almost autonomic reaction.
