So people are mostly driven of “what is popular”, so if you spam the article and astroturf them. You give the illusion that it is a big problem that a lot of people care about. And that leads to people taking it more seriously.
So the end here is to make people who would leave the left-party (Vänsterpartiet) to vote for ÖP, feel alienated. “Oh my god, I can’t vote for a far right party! I better vote for the ‘only’ left party that is left.” is the thought they want them to have.
Well you can check the comments, and their mastodon page. It works.
The second aspect is that they want to hurt Mullvad as a deterent for other to donate to ÖP, I think that is why they go extra hard on mastodon and lemmy. Because a lot of people who would be interested in Mullvads products would be here.
