Ahh... tbh I didn’t check post histories so what I said was basically a guess/shot in the dark
Same as you, saw these same 2-3 posts being made here, c/gaming, and ConPro, and got an “inauthentic” feeling from it. Not yet sure if it’s forum sliding or what.
It’s a good way to identify astroturfing - the emergence of a single narrative from “different” places, simultaneously
Still find it fascinating that they bother with small forums like these.
They don’t necessarily even have to, they just need someone on the take with a large following to start the trend and the lemmings will spread it far and wide.
That’s not to say there aren’t literal shills here, just that not everyone who “shills” is getting a paycheck, in fact it’s probably a tiny minority.
Well, Not spotted any recently, but there was user that used multiple accounts and accidentally created a post topic here with the wrong account, that was fun to ask them what was up, and get the response before they deleted, haha
EDIT: Yea the amount of paid shills here are probably low and they are just drinking from the same source.
i posted it on conpro and gaming. And im anti zionist you can check my post history. I dont know about the others but i posted the second post on this topic because the first post didnt show the whole picture that was changed
