They're trying to sow the seeds of outrage. Do not take the bait.

I’ve noticed it too. I came here because Reddit has become increasingly toxic, with bots of outrage and division thriving there. I really hope Lemmy doesn’t follow the same path, but I suspect efforts will be made to make alternatives to controlled media even more toxic. I’m not sure what the best strategies are to counter this kind of malevolence.
HA HA HA HA. IMAGINE HAVING NEVER MET A HUMAN PERSON LIKE US! THEY PROBABLY DON'T EVEN EAT NORMAL HUMAN FOOD!
Hey most people here have never encountered any other human being who wasn't involved in their creation.
Not in school? Kindergarten? Heck, neighbours, people in shops? Not a single one?
A lot of amerikans are homeschooled or haven’t left their small town. True for some Canadians too.

Dead Internet incomming.
They're all like 7< days old aswell
I blocked NSQ because a bot is a mod. I don't see anything particularly odd here. It just seems like people asking general random stuff like real people
We're finally hitting the big time!
