I'm sometimes curious if they're here to discredit real accounts and to make Voat seem worse than it is?

I don't normally believe in conspiracy theories for which there is no evidence, but it's almost logical for me to do so - with regards to this.

See, I'm not sure anyone can actually believe the things they post are true. I don't think anyone can be that stupid and still function well enough to use a complicated keyboard and posting system. It's for that reason that I'm truly turning into one of the v/conspiracy folks!

Well, I suppose it's logical to believe that shills/psy-ops are real. It's difficult to spot them with complete accuracy and certainty.

I'm 100% certain something is fucked with their account. It might just be abject stupidity and ignorance, but that'd be so stunningly improbable that it actually (seems to me) makes it more likely that there's something fishy going on.

Note: I post this shit under my own name and make my accusations public. Fuck anon posting for things like this.

I really can't speculate as to their motivation or payment. I just don't know. It's just really fishy.

I'm on the political left, I'm a Libertarian Socialist (we're few in number, but we exist) and this is well known throughout the site. I've been very upfront about it, very open about it, etc... I'm not a racist, by any definition. Frankly, the world is running REALLY well - even if people aren't smart enough to look at the statistics. We're pretty much at the best point ever. So, if Jews are smart enough to control the world with just 2% of the population, then they deserve to be in control, 'cause they're doing a pretty good job and it's reasonable to conclude that everyone else is too stupid to do so, 'cause they let 2% of the population control them.

I think everyone deserves equal rights, regardless of skin color or ability. I think that's what equality means - not equal outcome, but equal opportunity.

I've never posted on Reddit, so I can't really opine. I saw a free speech platform and was like, "I like free speech!" So, here I am.

The userbase is tiny. I'm not sure why anyone would want to control it, except to ruin it. Controlling the narrative here is controlling a very small number of views that are generally considered deplorable and are held by socially and financially marginalized people (in the statistical norm). The average user here appears to have mental health issues and, from observation, a goodly number of them appear to lack gainful employment. I don't see any rational reason to control it (were I a source of power), but I see lots of reasons to keep it discredited. That message, the discredited message, wouldn't be for our fellow goats, but for those who are outside and, maybe, thinking about looking in.

That's what logic tells me. Now, if it's paid - then I'd be a bit surprised. My guess is that it's just independent people who have chosen to make the site a discredited place. This sends a message to the people who aren't free speech advocates. "That Voat site is just full of Nazis, racists, and scumbags. But I repeat myself."

Last week's most popular thread was my weekly guitar thread. Process that, if you want.
