    i’m not saying there wasn’t money involved, but if you think a bot farm which is essentially not people is the same as people doing dumb missions on social media is the same thats on you.

            It sounds like you’re essentially saying that paying organizers is the same as running bot farms.

            This seems to imply that you don’t believe organizers should be paid.

            … or you don’t believe organizers are human, but that’s probably not what you meant.

              My point is both of them did the same, both paid people and bots, but it was treated as a problem when Bolsonaro did, but was ok when Lula did

                But they didn’t do the same, Lula didn’t run bot farms. That’s qualitatively different than paying organizers.

                You’re the one equivocating between running bot farms and paying organizers, so I’ll ask again: do you not believe organizers should be paid? It’s a simple question, don’t know why you won’t answer.

                  If lula did what he did without bots the msn is jesus christ himself, because it would be a miracle. Im not a religious person, so thats a no for me.

                  If you say organizer as a political activist, if they are not paid for their work then mostly only people who can get paid without working could be a political activist. Sounds like nonsense

                    Professional organizers are people who get paid for their political work. Activists are just volunteers.

                    And there was no “miracle” involved, just people recognizing they needed to act. This was a coordinated effort by a smaller team of professional (paid) organizers and a much larger mass of activists (unpaid). There’s no proof bots were involved.

                    You’re just judging based on vibes.
