I’ve posted quite a bit on here since I created my account, posts I consider non-controversial, since I’m not interested in arguing or getting into heated topics like politics. Even so, I still get the occasional snarky comment. Out of curiosity, I sometimes check the person’s post history when I see something like that, and without fail, their profile is full of snarky, negative, or hateful posts overall. It always makes me wonder: do people like this genuinely get enjoyment from surrounding themselves with negativity? What’s the thought process behind it?

    Why would a country from the other side of the globe care about quite a niche social network that isn’t present in their cultural bubble?

      Divide and conquer. There is irrefutable evidence that they’ve been interfering in elections etc for more than 12 years. I learned this at a national security conference in Germany.

      Because that’s exactly the kind of thing Russians do. They’re culturally obligated to ruin things for everyone else.
