I’m glad to be totally off of Reddit now but I have to say, props to the mods doing this kind of stuff. It’s pretty hilarious

They're getting no end of grief from bad/paid actors though.

The amount of whinging and bootlicking from people taking Spez's side was insane before I left for good.

It doesn’t seem organic. Protest posts would get 95% upvotes, then suddenly 12 hours later get slammed with bootlickers and downvotes.

Yup, before the 1st I was getting mass harassed by what were clearly new accounts for pointing out the responders were clearly copying/pasting from a script.

But once that was pointed out, only 12 year old accounts with little posting history showed up lol, which seemed bizarre.

I had a guy try to justify the latter type of account as "I'm just not very active on reddit". My man, you made one post, commented on one other post a few weeks later, then complete radio silence for 9 years, just to pop up spreading anti-trans propaganda on post after post?

It sounds like one of the many of spez’ alts he openly admitted to having years back, since he seems to laud him self as a troll.
