It's definitely suspicious. I saw two of your post, linking to proper sources, posting in the correct communities, one at -3 and the other fresh after it was submitted to 0.

The only times I saw downvoted submissions on Lemmy are bot link spam and into the wrong communities on top.

But here you are with the topic Russia and it happens as well.

There does seem to be an unusual level of support for Russia/China in certain lemmy communities...

It’s coming from inside the house. A number of the people working on Lemmy-the-software are, depending on who you ask, healthy skeptics of the western imperialist system or useful idiots for Russian propaganda.

It seems so. They were on Reddit for a long time but got banned there, so now they are here I guess.
