why am I reading bots abd trolls talk to each other

[–] Blackmist@feddit.uk 47 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Meanwhile local corporations and farms actually polluting the water every day.

"That's the American Way!"

[–] FenrirIII@lemmy.world 6 points 16 hours ago

Not just that, but corporations are also importing (work visas) cheaper foreign labor (e.g. Indians) and destroying the middle-class in America. I don't blame the people who seize the opportunity, I blame evil corporations

This have to be a bait, right?

[–] JargonWagon@lemmy.world 11 points 16 hours ago

I'm assuming so, since the name of the account is "Blonde Bigot" lol

When an immovable Russian bot meets an irresistible A.I. shit-stirring bot (also from Russia).

[–] whimsy@lemmy.zip 5 points 22 hours ago (1 children)

What are you saying? Where did Russia come from?

[–] BearGun@ttrpg.network 8 points 14 hours ago

"Russia" comes from the known fact that they very extensively use trolls and bots in an attempt to influence public opinion in the west i'd imagine.

Amazing how the Indian lady is ready to throw people from the north under the bus.

Someone does good things in India.

  • So proud to be an Indian
  • India super power 2020
  • India is a genius country
  • India is home to the most diverse population

Some people do bad things in India

  • Don't blame the whole country
  • India is too big, problems are big too
  • you just know which people do this
  • Kill these <insert religion/caste>
  • Don't tie us together with these savages.

They switch the rhetoric which always paints themselves as a better Indian. Then the whole nation starts brigading the internet discussions to defend themselves like it's their job.

India is proud the British made them a big player in the international market after leaving, but also isn't afraid to go low to bring out their moral superiority when it suits them against their own.

That's not really different anywhere else.

[–] Skullgrid@lemmy.world 3 points 4 hours ago

Eeeh, places that are more... "federal" or strongly regional tend to do this more. Some countries put on a more united front, places like the US and India, seem to do more of what 0_o7@lemmy.dbzer0.com is saying

[–] Duamerthrax@lemmy.world 42 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (1 children)

India is incredibly classist, or more specifically castist? What's the "ist" for the caste system?

edit: It's spelled "Casteist".

[–] calmblue75@lemmy.ml 24 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (1 children)

This specific case isn't casteist. It is general bigotry against Biharis.

[–] Duamerthrax@lemmy.world 23 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Just looked this stuff up. Apparently the Biharis use to be viewed as a caste but isn't anymore. Whatever. If it walks like a duck and quakes like a duck, it's probably a duck. Racism, Classism, Casteism, religious bigotry, sexism... all looks the same when you take a step back.

[–] RaivoKulli@sopuli.xyz 78 points 1 day ago

Racism isn't just for the whites

[–] ivanafterall@lemmy.world 14 points 1 day ago

Typical southern Indian lady, probably. Sorry, I'm not educated enough to be well-bigoted in this instance.

[–] dbx12@programming.dev 72 points 1 day ago (2 children)

out of our countries

As if they have multiple, like Pokemon.

[–] ryedaft@sh.itjust.works 20 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Well, if it's the UK then... then it's complicated. Although if it is the UK then it's even more complicated.

[–] jimmux@programming.dev 1 points 1 hour ago

I'm guessing "Edison" is in the US, but "Blonde Bigot" is in the UK. There's a weird movement to rebrand bigotry as a virtue over there.

[–] Coolbeanschilly@lemmy.ca 57 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I wonder what the Indigenous people would like to say to her. She's either a really good troll, or a really fucking stupid person.

I'm choosing to go with the latter explanation.

[–] _g_be@lemmy.world 35 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Username is blondeBigot, but even then it still doesn't narrow it down

[–] Coolbeanschilly@lemmy.ca 17 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Perhaps she's in the Uncanny Valley of being just clever enough to know how trollish her name and conduct is, while being too dumb to truly understand her origins.

Regardless, we should treat it as any Uncanny Valley, with a sense of atavism and dread, and shun it into oblivion, in all manners.

[–] I_Has_A_Hat@lemmy.world 2 points 19 hours ago* (last edited 19 hours ago) (1 children)

You're using Uncanny Valley wrong. However, Uncanny Valley still applies since one, or both, are certainly bots and people can't quite recognize it.

[–] Coolbeanschilly@lemmy.ca 1 points 15 hours ago

Hence why I used the term as a loose metaphor, it was meant to invoke that sense of dread for a hollow being. Language is fluid and definitions are analogue.

[–] iAvicenna@lemmy.world 36 points 1 day ago

lol she will be really surprised when she finds out who really pollutes the environment

[–] Lemminary@lemmy.world 13 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I thought she was being quite subtle about it and he wasn't reading into it.

Like the phrase "Nobody wants demographic change" hints at the genocide of natives, no? "I get it", you don't want your people to suffer like mine did. Maybe I'm reading too much into it, but she didn't need to be that agreeable either way.

[–] TimewornTraveler@lemmy.dbzer0.com 10 points 21 hours ago

it's LLM speech. Indian lady is ai, bigots are maybe people but acting in bad faith, likely paid trolls

If this is Edison, NJ, there's far worse than a little invasiven fruit in that river.
