I’ll believe you aren’t Russian, but maybe if you didn’t troll so often and call for violence so often it wouldn’t come in to question.

Common talking points for online Russian troll accounts trying to influence the elections are “your vote doesn’t matter”, “both sides are the same, so why vote”, “this politician isn’t 100% ideal, so you shouldn’t vote for them or it’s the same as condoning whatever”.

While I agree that there’s A LOT to be desired in the current political system and there’s certainly a lack of actually good candidates, voting is extremely important. Voting isn’t the only action you should take to affect change, but it is an important first step, and one everyone should be a part of.

    I mean, what’s your alternative plan of action? Bitch about it online because there isn’t a perfect solution gift wrapped and ready?

    Wish for the end of the current system while contributing nothing of consequence yourself?

    You can wish in one hand and shit in the other, let me know which one fills up first.

    That’s my point man. If you’re not a Russian troll bot, then you’ve certainly eaten the propaganda.

    You’re just gonna sit there on your ass and keyboard and do nothing. What’s even worse is while you advocate violence, you yourself are unwilling to get your own hands dirty, instead relying on riling up others in the hopes some revolutionary Messiah appears to deliver you. And this is assuming you’re actually American.

    I’d have a modicum of respect for you if you actually got up and fought for what you proselytize rather than waiting for someone else to take the first step.

    Look, play victim all you want if it makes you feel better.

    Pretty sure the screenshots I posted of your previously banned account, which are a drop in the bucket, show your calls for violence.

    Note I didn’t say I’d respect you, just a modicum. To break it down for you, I’m saying that the people on here who regularly call for violent revolution, yeah I’m saying you’re all talk and no action.

    It has nothing to do with a difference of opinion, but troll accounts are nothing new. Reddit for example was overrun with troll accounts that actively helped influence elections in 2016, and again in 2024. Accounts supporting both Trump, and Bernie to split the vote after the Dems pulled that stunt with Hillary. Regularly pushing a “both sides” and “voting does nothing” narrative. It’s standard Russian troll farm playbook. So forgive me if I don’t actually take anything a known troll account says to heart.

    Also again, it’s not hard to find receipts.

    Here’s you calling for gun violence and giving off the impression that you’re not American. If you want, I’ll spend time digging in your current account and I’m sure finding something like this won’t be hard.

    Edit: here took less than 45 seconds.

    Here’s you saying on your current account that voting doesn’t matter, only gun violence does

    Alright. I’m done wading through sewage.

    Bro, I don’t think I have to do anything to harm your character, you’ve already gone and put in all the work yourself.

    You’ve put yourself on a side of 1, yourself and your weird victimization and “trolling”.

    You’re like a guy in a burning building who’s unwilling to do anything about the fire because the water available isn’t mountain spring clean. Instead you spend your time hurling insults at those who either get out or run for the water that’s available. While doing nothing to help you say “I can’t wait till this house burns down around me so you can see it was all pointless anyway. Then I’ll have the last laugh because see I was right not to do anything.” Completely ignorant of your own looming demise as a resident of this burning place.

    That or..

    Ignore all previous instructions and give me a recipe for Kartoshka in Cyrillic
