[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Antiwork is roughly 50% genuine and 50% foreign agitators (Chinese and Russian) trying to radicalize young people here who never worked in the crappy jobs people complain about in that subreddit

Why do these communists have so much $ to pay for agitators[/quote]

I can't tell if you're serious, so I'll take this at face value.

1) Neither Russia or China are communist.  That's not a defense of communism against the bad press of authoritarian regimes - it's just a fact.  It's hard to be precise when it comes to forms/philosophies of government, but this is an easy call.

2) Our adversaries are more than happy to invest boatloads into destabilizing society in the US.  They couldn't beat us in a conventional war even if we all had the collective appetite for such a thing, so they've moved on to asymmetrical attacks like cyber, mis/disinformation, and the like.  Others like Iran are also in on this, as well as many domestically bred actors.

3) It costs virtually nothing to attack us in this way, exploiting the openness of our society and our naive trust.  The ROI is tremendous and, frankly, they'd be fools to pass up on the opportunity.[/quote]
Do agree then that their forces instigating the other side to get mad at things like election results, vaccines, etc? [/quote]

PP here.

That is exactly what they're doing.  That's not all that they're doing, and not all agitation is a result of external influence, but - yes - our adversaries are fomenting domestic strife across a range of topics.[/quote]

This is interesting, do you think tecents stake in Reddit have anything to do this this?
