I don't know what you mean by that but what I said is dead serious. I posted this here as an easy way to embed a jpeg in a comment to Jason. If the ironleft didn't astroturf it then maybe two people at most looking through old threads would have chuckled at it.

I meant that you were trying to call out the /u/socks is a shill posters, but it failed? or did I misunderstand, is socks really a shill

Jason replied to an old comment of mine at 2am, saying socks is a shill. I was already sick of the whole issue. So I made that meme in reply, joking an angry old man just had had to write about socks at 2am.

Not that old. I'm trying to work my way down my pile of messages.

That's what I thought. Phew. JC has long been in my block list. He bombards me with shit/dick content otherwise.

If it walks like a duck, and talks like a duck.

He's just a troll.

He winds people up so people are not going to shut up about him.

But diving into conspiracy theories about a poster who is clearly having a great time on the reaction is a bit daft.

Not just a troll, a polite troll that gets you more engaged, pretending to want to learn, yet never changing their shill stances.

Needs a new term - "politroll"?

That would just be a normal troll outside the US where people have manners.

Magnora wants engagement?

We were talking about socks, not M7.

Who benefits from higher engagement? Who sees trolls everywhere, yet trusts one little puppet? Who has refused to promise he won't sell out? Whose hand moves the sock? ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)?

Excellent questions.

If you are engaged in a timesuck, you're not being more productive, however you want to define that.

I'm guessing most active SaidIt users know prolific socks and his views and others' views of him. He's unlikely to sway many if any of these minds. However causal, rare, and new readers might be influenced or at the very least remain steadfast in their views like his if they at least see someone sharing their opinions. There's no shortage of evidence that most people don't stand on their own. Most people will get the vaccines only because others will. That's why it matters.

The ruling class tells billionaires to pay millionaires to tell the middle class the poor are the problem - and that they all need vaccines. They are the puppeteer hands lodged up sock's mind. His mouth moves with their ideas. Whether he gets paid or not it's still shilling behaviour in support of vaccines and authorities and all their crimes, directly or indirectly. We must reject all the rigged systems.
