Judging by vote totals, we're already in that sea of .ml alts brigading on behalf of hexbear that I mentioned.

I always laugh when someone assumes the reason why they're being downvoted because their assumption is almost always wrong.

I downvoted you because of how childish you're behaving. If you don't debate in a civil manner nobody will take your argument seriously. Regardless of whether I agree with your argument or not, trolling always deserves a downvote.

You need to touch my balloon knot, mate

I ADMITTED I COULD HAVE MISUNDERSTOOD. What more do you want from me?

Calm down. You're getting way too worked up over nonsense.

I would ask that you clarify what you mean. I could be completely wrong and misunderstood the context of your comment, but, and excuse my assumption, but to me, it seems you're being rude, a troll, an alt account from a person I pissed off, or just a random dude that I've never interacted with that is taking exception in a sarcastic way

Like I said, I could be misinterpreting your statement and mean no offense

Quoted, for posterity.

How do you know a tankie from a government paid shill like UniversalMonk?

I'm not familiar with UniversalMonk. Why do you think they're a government paid shill?

I'm not the person you asked but I just did a quick search. I don't know if it's more prevalent in the US or not, but here is a scientific journal on the subject:

"The medical profession faces a critical challenge with the mental health of its practitioners, leading to an alarming increase in suicide rates among healthcare workers (HCW)."

A number of high-profile, conservative influencers in the US have said they are “victims” of an alleged Russian disinformation campaign, after the Biden administration accused Moscow of carrying out a sustained campaign to influence the outcome of November’s presidential elections.

Tim Pool, Dave Rubin and Benny Johnson published statements on Wednesday evening addressing allegations that a US content creation company they were associated with had been provided with nearly $10m from Russian state media employees to publish videos with messages in favour of Moscow’s interests and agenda, including over the war in Ukraine.
