All your comment history consists of statements vaguely dismissing pizzagate and criticizing Donald trump. Looks like I found me a shill, CTR account.

I looked as well, being anti trump, and taking a sceptical view of pizzagate does not necessarily a shill make. His comments aren't dismissive, just calmly questioning. Its healthy to have people with that perspective around, even if to you and I feel the evidence is conclusive.

Yeah, a shill is more likely to exaggerate and rile up people, so that we all seem crazy. That way it can all be dismissed as a bunch of internet loonies imagining things. Calm and rational responses should be given consideration, if only as a good contrast to figure out what's actually weird in the email.

If the shills were calm and rational, they'd be doing us a huge favor. Bring more shills like that, please.

Right. I enjoy hurling insults over the internet as much as the next person, but yeah, calm intelligent debate is a fuckload more productive, and therefore benefits those being traffiked/abused all the more. Shouting shill without thought can be just as damaging as the shills themselves. It's up to us to increase our ability to discern.
