This is why anonymous image board can actually be very hazardous, because, well, its amazing how many people at this stage are suddenly coming forth and proclaiming how they knew it all along and anyone who didn't was a fool.

Yet, if you were here during the election, it was RIFE with support for Trump - and plenty of (regularly banned) opposition. Due to the anonymous nature of the board, and the ubiquity of proxys/VPNs/equivalent services, its really not very hard for a small group of people to give the impression that they are much larger in size as a group.

4 men with 4 IP's each to work from can thusly appear as 16 people, and in a thread, that can and does go a long way towards creating false consensus. I suspect some in this very thread know all about that technique.

In any case, the board was full of people proclaiming support for Trump, whether they were legitimate or not, so it seems probable you were one of those people and are now pretending you were not.

If you're going to be a fag butthurt that Trumpstein betrayed you, fine, but don't lump me in with you. I skipped out on most of 2016 because this place had gotten so terrible already before the primaries had begun and the alt /pol/s had died, thanks to the turkroach and his newfag cultists calling them goon and /intl/ boards and the handful of people who used them coming back here whenever kampfy stopped robotripping for a week.

I only come back here to shitpost.

This just ties right back into the previous commentary.

You made a claim about yourself, implying that you never bought into the Trump stuff, and I suggested that I suspect a lot of people are changing their tunes now that things have become more obvious to them, and your response was to come back and simply deny once more that you ever bought into the Trump stuff, and that's just not a very convincing argument, especially in a context like this one, wherien bad faith argumentation is commonplace.

Would you mind just not doing so then? No offense, but you aren't contributing anything by just shitposting, and there's always 4chan if you really want to shitpost. Shitposting here just seems absent of worth from your POV, as far as I can see it. At least on 4chan more people are likely to see your shitposting, and because the board is much faster (and much less aggressively moderated - which is really saying something considering how bad the moderation of this board has become), so you'll be able to shitpost in a bigger space with more people to see it and have more opportunities for quality shitposting. I'm just saying man, if you want to shitpost, this is hardly the best place to be doing it.

But hey, that's your choice, and there's nothing I can really do about it one way or the other.

This is extremely true and a very underestimated fact about this place.

I know, that's why I said it.
