I am curious about:
- how much of this is actually true
- if it is necessarily possible for civilians to determine what is true here
- how many others wonder about these same sorts of things
Note that I have made no assertion one way or the other about the true epistemic status of these accusations.

- mistermann 2y agoIt is interesting and relevant, but does not address the questions as stated (which was not accidental). I doubt many people would notice that, which is a big part of why it's so easy to herd Normies.
- throw310822 2y agoSome of the first examples of fake comments on social media (e.g. 38 years old German woman saying that giving up Russian gas has damaged the country's economy and that Germany doesn't have to hurt itself for Ukraine) express perfectly legitimate and quite obvious opinions that certainly don't need a Russian agent to be spread or even suggested- probably there are millions of German citizens thinking the same. It's definitely great for an adversary of Russia to be able to claim that such an opinion is illegitimate, having being spread by an enemy agent. Now you don't need to engage with the argument and you can just dismiss it as an example of enemy propaganda.
