    Of course they are which is why they’ve taken out all the stops to make it happen.

    There is a new push online on various social media platforms (including Reddit and Lemmy), by Russian Bots to spread either pro Trump nonsense, or anti Biden propaganda. Lots of people online posing as progressives trying to convince people to either vote for someone else, or even just to stay home on election day. Apathy amongst liberals and centrists is one of the biggest weapons that the GOP has.

    Spoiler candidates can be very dangerous. RFK Jr has no dreams of winning, and instead is looking to leverage his name to steal a few votes away from Biden and hand Trump a victory.

    There are also going to be a whole hell of a lot of dirty tricks which will try to cause confusion or stifle the vote. Some races will be extremely tight, so even a few percentage points switch sides or don’t go vote and a Trump win is absolutely possible, which will greatly benefit Putin and his pointless war.

      do you have any proof for this? I think you are making it up to discredit people who don’t like your candidate.
