Yes...also there are several shills targeting posts in new and saying some pretty awful stuff. :(

I feel like I'm "over deporting" people and posts and about to get myself whacked. I've noticed some trends though. Here's who's history I check and the red flags I watch for if I see a stupid comment:

  1. People have weird right-wing buzzwords in their name to seem super serious, but they don't really fit. "1776SuperPatriotMAGA" bla bla.

  2. They have a bunch of anodyne comments like, "Yeah, that was totally right. Barr is going to totally lower the boom on those guys!" Then in one of their posts there will be a link to a video like, "It's all explained here: http..." and that goes to some racist video with four views.

  3. The user is a one-note samba. For example, they're finding topics about the London attack and hitting every one to throw in something derogatory about Muslims.

Anyway, I'd be an unpopular mod and over-thin the herd, but I don't appreciate people painting us the way they see us on our own forum.

You're absolutely right. Great observations!

Cheers pede.

They're getting stealthy too, and upvoting each other. Quite a bit of inflated karma circle-jerks. I saw one against inter-racial dating that had to be a setup.

Still up at 240+ votes, FFS. https://thedonald.win/p/3ijHO1D/x/c/4FSGOlE

Yes...how many alt accounts has each troll already set up? Wish we could do something about this.
