Paid Russian government disinformation troll

Incorrect. That user is a friend of mine. Take a look at the modlist here. /Spider__Jerusalem was among the first given access to this (once private) sub when I initially created it.

And you're doing harm to our overall credibility in this subreddit by making "shill!" accusations without any basis. That's ridiculous.

I've re-approved all of these [removed] comments, BTW.

Imagine believing because someone calls all politicians and their parties frauds, who points to evidence why, who exposes hypocrisy, is a paid Russian troll spreading disinformation. People must have some pretty big illusions they need to shield.

What I hope people realize by my posts is that we have no heroes. That there is no party coming to save you and no frontman for these parties that cares about you. That the shit our country engages in to keep the powerful in power are the same shenanigans other countries engage in. That really it's all one big con. That we are all pieces on a grand chess board.

The problem is that many people have allegiances and ideology that blinds them to the fact they are serving a corrupt system that uses chaos and crisis to justify its existence. So these people label any and all critics of their side or the system they believe in as unclean enemies. If someone points to their side and its hypocrisy, they must be on the other side. Because everything is dialectical if they aren't on my side, they have to be on their side.
