Yeah, I feel the same way, a lot of these movements are just tyrannical government psyops waging proxy wars in the information era.
I realize that sounds like something a nutjob conspiracist would say but just look at how often the larger groups end up spouting pro-Russia and pro-Chinese sentiments, look at how forceful they are about spreading their ideologies here in the fediverse, look at an LBRY video comment section or at middle eastern talking heads.
Everyone in this whole world pretends to be a revolutionary and almost nobody is anything more than just another tool for a machine built for war and greed.

the single most important thing you will ever learn in life, is when to recognize your level of expertise. It will benefit you to no end, and prevent you from making a fool of yourself.
There are things that you are familiar with, and there are things that you are not familiar with. Be quiet, please. Just don’t say things. Unless you know explicitly, it will be productive, in which case, do say things.
I think it’s better to get your opinions out there so you can face backlash when you’re wrong. Where most people misstep in this hypothetical is they rarely try to look at it from their opponent’s perspective and/or from an unbiased third party perspective, and instead radicalize further.
I’m not sure if I get your point, as I’m sure happens to you quite often, are you calling the banning of discussion which is borderline illegal, inciting violence etc, and then the banning the discussion of that ban, a psyops campaign? I had to read comments in your Other Post to get a grasp of the situation.
I feel like you really should have noticed the signs that you’d taken a wrong turn in your life when Hexbear users starting backing you up.
They weren’t backing me up. Or are you referring to them?
What happened was I happened to step on an unlucky metaphorical giant hornet’s nest responding to someone who was randomly bringing up Luigi. If a form of advocacy is extreme enough, it causes a cautionary reaction, which is the most concise way I can put it. I then mentioned the whole thing elsewhere, but the ever-famous Blaze then asked me to not preach to the choir, instead saying I should tell everyone who was relevant to it. So I did, and that got removed by one of the mods of !yepowertrippinbastards@lemmy.dbzer0.com who told me to bring the matter to !fediverselore@lemmy.ca instead. So I complied again, doing that, and rather than being meditative, the response from all of them came off as vigilant, and then he posited the idea of bringing it back to !yepowertrippinbastards@lemmy.dbzer0.com formatted as a “the mods of YPTB removed my inquiry” complaint. So, again, I complied, only for both of the people in charge there to shame me for my way of thinking and implying I did everything I did in an attempt not to comply. All because a hundred people held the position that the CEO’s murder was ethically unquestionable.

You can say that again.
