Absolutely everyone deserves their say, no matter how crazy. The problem is that the SJW idea of "having my say" is that the existence of their opinions is mutually exclusive with allowing their thoughts to be on equal footing. They are known to use numbers and influence to eliminate competing thought, because they know they have no way of competing in a market ideas. They go so far as to (proudly and outspokenly) engage in Astroturfing to suppress Wrong Thinking, which is what many people suspect you of attempting right now.

Many people suspect me of that? I am not aware of this...

I don't understand the reasoning, though. I don't think I've done anything that sounds like that. If they're the people I'm thinking of, they're just looking for their boogeyman. Chasing shadows.

I wouldn't phrase it as chasing shadows so much as crying out before struck. People don't want to see this community (by which I mean Voat as well as this sub) turned into Leddit 2 by sacrificing quality of posts for a higher level of activity. As such, people who have had many communities shit on by SJWs (who are a very real thing) are unhappily suspicious of anything that smacks of astroturfing for any goal. I think what's happening here is that people are having trouble assuming good faith because they have been burned before.
