I like guns and I've been browsing gun subreddits for the past two years at least.

There is absolutely a concerted effort at infiltration.

The mods of /r/Firearms seem to be uncorrupted thus far, and they're as pro 1A as they are 2A, to their credit.

However, that means the subreddit is vulnerable to vote manipulation and shills. And I know it when I fucking see it because it's crystal clear based on the content of the comments in relation to the post itself.

You've got actual commies trying to convince pro-gun Americans that they're on the same side. The posts get heavily upvoted but then literally everyone in the comments are tearing their ass apart. But each post stays on the front page for like over a day sometimes. There's also pro-mask retardation sprinkled in there.

Another thing I noticed is "muh based black guy posting a picture of himself with a gun" posts. Of course, no one cares if regular black dudes own guns, much like they don't care if gay dudes do, but there's something to these posts featuring such people that seems off. It's almost like a gamer-girl post, like teehee look I'm into this hobby too. It's just a picture of a black/fag with a gun and literally nothing else, but it gets massively upvoted. I suspect vote manipulation, of course, because the posts themselves offer virtually nothing than the opportunity to upvote for "inclusivity". The one about the fag on the magazine cover stunk of it too.
