I think this guy was just someone who's defunct account had been hacked and used to troll. All of his comments from that day featured a ton of both sides arguments and misrepresented statistics, which to me looked like someone who was given talking points and tried to fix any conversation he could into conforming to them.

It was obviously propaganda, and I guess previously I would have thought someone who ran something ad large as reddit wouldn't be so stupid and oblivious...but here I am on lemmy a few months later, so who knows. It's now apparent that spez is that stupid.
