View submission: Suspected Campaign from Russia on Reddit

You are being paranoid. The UK population on reddit, particularly on political subreddits, and *especially* the UK redditors who are passionate about politics, is very much more left wing than the UK population in general. It's the exact same for US politics on reddit. Young, tech-savvy 16-28 year olds are maybe the most highly left wing demographic.

Yeah, the hard-left are used to 'towing the party line' I suppose. This incident shows I'm not being completely paranoid though, if the Russian tactic is to muddy the waters to the extent we can't tell what's fake and what's real it seems to be working. I can't be the only one who keeps seeing un-verified news and gossip being reported as fact every day.
