    I can’t remember off the top of my head, I think he was just burnt out from constantly sharting out anti-left propaganda.

    I remember he made a goodbye post somewhere and all the liberals were crying in the comments lol.

          someone discovered back in 2013 that the cyberspace task forces at elgin air force base uses reddit considerably higher rates that most municipalities despite being a fraction of their size – in other words the parts of the us military tasked with cyberspace warfare is actively using reddit at significantly higher rates than most cities.

          the mashable link that broke this story originally is now gone, so i shared links to the reddit post itself as well as another source.

            Ahhh, I’m on mobile and my translate is shit. I mean I could have told you there were tons of American feds on reddit lol, I used it for like a decade. Glad there’s some evidence though, thanks for the links!

              the problem seems to be that most people are aware that they’re exposing themselves to a platform that they know contains propaganda, but believe that they’re immune/resistant to it nonetheless – no one is.

                Oh absolutely. I couldn’t agree more. Also the difficulty in doing a 180 on a sincerely held belief is extremely difficult, especially when the propaganda is so thick.

                  it doesn’t feel very thick to me since a simple 30 second google search would easily dispel most of it – instead it feels pervasive since you end up getting it from EVERYWHERE.
