Agreed. Let's Lampshade all of them. :D
In reality we need mods who are aware of the fact that we are being attacked by an organized, synthetic effort. Likely the shills are paid, and/or they are ADL shills with a working group in the basement of some synagogue. Either way it's bullshit, and tedious interference from the usual suspects.
Consider these examples
Wikipedia Editing for Zionists
Israeli students to get $2,000 to spread state propaganda on Facebook
Paid Hasbara Brigade Busted On Reddit
Israeli govt to recruit students as undercover agents on social media
Students offered grants if they tweet pro-Israeli propaganda
Hasbara courses at Israeli universities exposed in new report

I feel like they could have done this at any time. The only reason they haven't yet is because they're so intolerant of other opinions and so easily triggered they fear this place. Our greatest shield is our complete inability to give a shit. You want to get rid of them, just keep firing the nigger lasers and faggot torpedos until they have no choice but to scurry back to their safe space.

Of course we are. I've been away from Voat for a while now, because everytime I posted something that mattered, I was attacked by shill whore psychopaths trying to bury the truth.
You see, in reality, Voat's shill problem is not about Left vs Right or Killary vs Trump or whatever other Divide & Conquer propaganda bullshit people are fighting over.
It's about Governments vs The Masses, i.e. Rulers vs Subjects. Democracy is just another version of enslavement. The progression was something like:
You see, it's alright for the government to force you to give them money and obey their commands, because um.. by being born you signed a "Social Contract"! It's like.. like a contract in the sense that it's binding on you, but it doesn't require you to agree to it. You just like, need to abide by its terms anyway, because.. um.. Plato, or something?
Or maybe it's alright because a bunch of psychopaths got together a few hundred years ago and wrote a document that they called a "Constitution", which sure sounds nicer than something like "Declaration of Enslavement".
But basically it's a document that codified their intention to extort money from people and boss them around, which they then proceeded to do.. and it's still going on. Magic parchment, huh?

I've seen older users give these new guys tips on how to increase their CCP ('comment in rising posts', 'comment in niche subs desperate for content', etc.). That's some bullshit right there. These guys need to EARN IT like the rest of us did.
Anyway, some of them will turn out to be assholes so we'll just have to try to keep them in check. Call them out on their tactics, etc..
On the other hand we will also have some cool and interesting new people to hang out with too so we gotta sniff out the goods ones too and encourage them.

Honestly, this is part of what pisses me off. I TRIED to be welcoming to the new guys. And now I'm portrayed as an asshole because they've made total dicks of them selves and I have the temerity to say "Hey You're being a dick spilling drinks all over my carpet and putting out smokes on the end table". I won't make this mistake again. It's not even that hard to figure out, so figure it out yourselves next time refugees.

It's a no-win situation. Try to be nice and they think they own the place already. Warn them not to use voat for their reddit-like bullshit and you're told to fuck off.
This latest influx has the shittiest people ever (between pizzagate and the_donald peeps). I never thought I'd think this but the people from Niggers, Coontown, and FPH (subs I don't jive with at all) have been delightful voat companions over the last year compared to these assholes of only 2 days.

I have nothing to
assadd because I agree with you.... But fucking great use of "temerity." Gave me a brain boner.[–] daskapitalist 0 points 3 points 3 points (+3|-0) ago
Honestly posting in niche subs is a very positive thing. Voat's greatest weakness is our lack of depth in niche subs compared to behemoths like Reddit. Sure, we're great in the default subs and a few niche ones, but we need more diversity than just /v/politics, /v/news, etc.
[–] NeedleStack 0 points 2 points 2 points (+2|-0) ago
We definitely need content in niche subs. But posting to them just to get easy internet points is dishonest and ugly.
