There's a difference between saying that people lost interest in the sub because of low quality discourse and saying they lost interest in the sub because of shills. The real reason people lost interest in coming here is because of the decline in both discourse and reach since the Reddit days, but that doesn't really have anything to do with shills.

Do you remember when radicalcentrist first came here? He was a shitlib (and still is) who would intentionally misunderstand people to deboonk whatever their argument was, then one day he started spamming WN positions like he's one of us. When I'm referring to low quality discourse, I'm referring to the subversives. No doubt the lack of reach compared to reddit has a role to play, if this sub had more reach I guarantee the shills would be long gone.

When has this sub had any high quality content on Saidit? All content here is low effort, and consequently also low quality. Occasionally, there are good posts. I don't think that shills could possibly reduce the quality of the discourse here because it is already pretty low in the first place and also because it is infrequent. Currently, the benefit of this place is that it presents new information and has a number of insightful posters that can comment on it. There isn't any discourse occurring, and if we actually brought up some topic worthy of discourse - because there are just a handful of posters here - it is unlikely that we will find more than two or three people at most who agree on any given thing. Off the top of my mind, my last more serious conversation here was on natural law and it involved just me and two other posters, and if I recall correctly each of us had his own different views.

Infrequent content is far better than garbage content. If someone happens upon this sub it's much better for them to see a bunch of genuine and useful posts that are a week or two old than a bunch of recent subversive gaslighting garbage from radicalcentrist and salos. If I had happened upon this sub for the first time and I saw a bunch of these shitposts I would conclude that the alt right are cringey morons and would move on, which is possibly their goal.

Could you also explain why socks was banned but radicalcentrist isnt? Socks never misrepresented himself. He was simply an ineffective shitlib that spewed the usual talking points. What radicalcentrist does is a hundred times worse and is clearly a breach of the stated rules of the sub. The mods are losing credibility and raising suspicion at the very least by his continued unwanted prescence.

Honestly, given your melodramatic tone, in my eyes you seem like way more of a schizo than radicalcentrist.

I never said he was a schizo. Pretending to be a white nationalist might be weird, but it doesn't necessarily make him schizophrenic. Not sure why this touched a nerve with you. I only addressed you because I thought you were a mod but I now realize you aren't, so excuse me. You can get back to your wordy pseudo intellectual blathering.

You didn't "touch a nerve", bro - I am simply telling it the way it is. You, with your eight day account, talking about the socks events from about a year ago, about "subversive gaslighting", about how DAR is in some manner representative of a movement, and implying that the mod team has been somehow subverted. Pure melodrama. You know you can just say they make low quality posts and argue your position on that ground, if that's what you believe, right? You don't need to go through the trouble of insinuating things about this place, the mod team etc.

But that's not what I believe. I don't believe he's just someone who makes "low quality" posts, and I don't think he's just some schizo. I think he's probably a shill or troll of some kind, and I'm not the only one who believes that.
