Excerpts from top threads:
"Link is wrong, should be ... "
"Thank you much. It's far too early for me to be so confused when reading something. Edit: Nope. Still confused"
"Have you spotted the comment? This is confusing as all hell"
"How does this post have 11k upvotes if nobody knows what comment we're supposed to be fucking reading?"
"Can someone explain exactly what this post supposedly proves and how a Russian troll farm is at all involved?"
"I'm very confused as well - the user points out that the comment relies on speculation but I don't see the connection to Russian troll farms"
"Am I missing something? It just looks like the same old redditors regurgitating what they heard other people say. How is this Russian trolling?"
I hope this confusion will be a self-served red pill at least for some of them...

I think more people than you think are catching on to it, but they're getting silenced all over the place. Remembr the guy talking about crime rate differences along racial lines who got upvoted to the top before his comment was mysteriously deleted and the thread locked?

Ya it sounds familiar, I may have heard about that here. I haven't used Reddit much since the FPH ban over 2 years ago. There's been so much shady shit since then that I have no faith in its current user base.
