The Harris campaign is shilling here? lol seems super unlikely. The userbase is to small to care about.

I have seen that argument a hundred times to convince people that certain places are free from it. I've witnessed shilling in tiny corners of the net.

The game is not to get millions of people to see it; that's television's job. The idea is to target specific groups with messages that will resonate with them in a place where they think they are getting straight opinions. That's why they always say the venue is too small to target; it's to get their targets' guard down.

Another important aspect is that they are not just targeting passive readers, but people likely to incorporate their poisoned messaging into future discourse on various topics. It's like spending all day shilling and then overhearing your exact talking points on the bus ride home, but on a much larger scale and longer timeframe.

The user I'm responding to also narrowed the scope by limiting it to "the Harris campaign." That's just one tentacle of a much larger political apparatus.

Places like this have different value.

It's not for control of public opinion, people there are beyond 'redemption'.

It's the best basket in which to test new rethorical and astroturfing techniques.

As one of the most 'resistant' places, if a technique can put a dent there, it is likely to work extremely well in more mainstream places to quell dissent.

As far as TPTB is concerned, there is no 'opinion' to be really spread there, only AI tools to be trained.

Why do so many comments try to persuade people it's AI doing it?

All you have to do here is say voting is a waste of time, it's all scripted, Trump's a Jew lover, etc. etc.

I mean, all of those things are true to an extent, but they know better to make it obvious they shill for the DNC.

Plus this whole .win site was set up to astroturf the right, giving the normie more control over it than Reddit, which is why patriots.win is how it is.

Look who is talking. The guy who admitted he reports people here to the FBI.

It's the law to report people who commit federal crimes. Not doing so is a federal crime in itself. We aren't criminals, so the only one reported is the fed pretending to be a criminal. That's why no arrests have taken place despite the imminent risk to human life and grave dangers to public safety ostensibly posed by the embedded agent. The agency has been caught.

What you are seeing by these constant messages about me is their form of damage control. Of course they will eventually claim that it was all part of a legitimate investigation into so-called "white nationalism" or some other boogeyman, but anyone paying attention knows that that is only a cover. The true aim is to give people who discuss conspiracies among powerful people bad optics, and in particular to interfere with American elections. This is increasingly clear the longer you read their messages and pay attention to which accounts engage in it.
