Just so everyone knows, the above is a paid poster trying to disrupt our conversations on this site. Click the "block user" button above and disengage.

I kind of doubt @Site_rly_sux is paid to troll, as untreated mental illness is far more likely. Just going off comments I've seen in the past day or two though.

The thing I dislike about blocking dysfunctional users is it disables your perspective of reality. Thomas Grays conclusion (bastardized to 'ignorance is bliss') is correct, however the downside is you've cut the flow of information from your environment. Imo, awareness trumps happiness. But who knows? Maybe that's just because:

You haven't a thought of your own, as you've parroted far right abuses and disinformation at Saidit for years and anyone who doesn't join you in the circle jerk you label a leftist and block them, so that you can continue parroting the same far right lies like a good gimp for the .01%.

😁 (This is what you'd miss if you blocked trolls!)

Weird how the paid posters automatically jump in to defend the powerful and crap on the little guy. Exactly the opposite you'd expect, especially on a site dedicated to dissident political content and free speech. Who writes long graduate student-like research comments telling people off for exposing billion dollar megacorporations for fucking us over?

It's not really the opposite. A percentage have always sucked up to the powerful. "Bro, let me be your minion and I'll defend you for the benefits of complicity."

Saidit is pretty far from free speech (hence, my absence), and dissident political content here is far to the left of sites I've been using, despite the trolls that attracts.

As for the "graduate student-like research comments telling people off", your and my reactions kind of point away from that being a paid propagandist, unless I'm still overestimating average IQ. I think a genuine propagandist would look to 'fit in' more, and not be so contrary and obvious.

Regardless, commentary in the near future will likely be dominated by AI bots, if it isn't already on the more popular platforms.

But if everyone blocks me, how will they come to learn that the fake news you posted was a total lie?

People might still be confused and think it's true, when actually you posted a bunch of lies.

Seriously chipit think about it. You're telling everyone to block me, in which case, they'd be unable to discover that your post was filled with extremist lies.

Hey maybe everyone should block chipit. Then we'd get the same great result of your fakes going nowhere

/u/Chipit is a long-time poster who consistently and regularly posts dissident political content, quite unlike what paid posters are employed to do. He's a great example of what this site needs more of.

More lies.

Everyone should know that Chipit is a new member here and doesn't have anyone vouching for him. His IP address says he's in Quantico and I already caught him posting fakes in this thread.

[–]Chipit[S] 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (1 child)

Block and disengage.

You're the proven liar here. I am the trustworthy guy who pointed out all of chipit's lies.

People know which one they should be blocking
