@lina Nostr was promoted on a bunch of right-libertarian and conspiracy theorist podcasts and radio shows such as Free Talk Live and The Corbett Report. So yeah, you are going to see a bunch of surface level conspiracy shit coming from them.

>while minds is indeed just a bunch of lukewarm rightoid propaganda pics
I suspect that most of those accounts are fed-run bots, kind of like the LibertyPatriot bots we have on here. They don't reply to anyone else. They post memes and scrape data on people who interact with them as most boomercons are too tech-illiterate to realize it.
@lina Who even uses Minds anyway? It always seemed to be "the other Gab". A lot of alternative outlets have accounts on there because they want to be on as many alt-platforms as possible, but they treat them like overglorified RSS feeds, only posting links to their latest videos because nobody wants to spends hours checking notifications on multiple platforms.
>nobody asked for minds to federate and it doesn't even federate correctly, just why???
I think they were trying to implement federation for a while. It seemed like ActivityPub federation was going to be standard for alt-tech after Gab briefly joined the fediverse. I even remember Brighteon and Steemit briefly federating.
@lina I think that meme in particular could be interpreted as saying that you should be prepared to defend yourself when the feds roll into your homestead/intentional community, not overthrowing the government. Hence the guy being in the woods and not in some federal building.
@lina I know some IRL conservatives and right-libertarians who openly say that they will answer the door with an AR-15, if the government suddenly came to their home to troon out their children, force vaccinate, confiscate their meat, etc.
like WOW NO SHIT AMERICAN GOVERNMENT IS CORRUPT?!?!?!?!??! ITS NOT LIKE LITERALLY EVERYONE OPPOSING AMERICA WAS SAYING THAT SINCE THE COLD WAR BEGAN
