For all MAGA cries about free speech they never have a thing to say whenever he threatens to jail his enemies, open libel laws or goes after the media

The freedom loving boys over at r/conservative are fantasizing about rounding up folks who suffer from TDS (anybody who criticises trump) because they see them as national security threats.

They claim Reddit is 90% bots on that sub. I don’t think that’s true, or even close as I know Reddit has some protections in place. For example, 2 upvotes from the same IP using different accounts gets tor a temp ban. Human interaction is their core product.

But if you read that sub, it really reads like it’s against American values and the repeat a lot of Russian talking points. It’s scary. It’s like the radical Americans are being groomed to hate what America has become.

Like you said, they want too round up Americans that disagree with Trump? Round up? Seriously?

They call Zelenskyy a dictator? And a bad leader? His people love him and he’s done a great job up until now. You can’t have free and fair elections on a battlefield, he’s obviously right to delay elections. Plus a leadership change in wartime gives the enemy a HUGE advantage.

They say Zelenskyy needs to just let Russia keep everything they stole? Why? Because that’ll be the end of it? Putin won’t be back in a year to take more?

They say Russia isn’t a threat to the US? Ummm…they’ve been our biggest enemy for half a century!? Does anymore remember that?

They say Elon is doing a great job firing thousands of top performers in government roles while he can’t even show his receipts for his cuts? They accept that all of those jobs are wasteful because of an anecdote about a wasteful job.

They cheer 19 year old kids with the maturity to call themselves “Big Balls” with access to our personal information and the power to target a lifelong government employee for firing?

They cheer on when the US President “trolls” other countries? When Elon trolls the citizens with a Rick Roll while he takes a literal CHAINSAW to the federal workforce? And now the US President is a laughing stock and it used to be the most respected Office in the world?

Every isolated “immigrant did crime” news story gets posted there as political news. Yet they ignore every “Republican Official or Pastor caught with CSAM” material.

They cheer the demise of our system of checks and balances?

They cheer billionaires and unqualified people cabinet positions? Like…they want on oligarchy??? That has never been a popular American belief.

The only things that seem American are when they cheer on things like a factory being built here, which we can all agree is a good thing. But if you go in the comments the discussion will be about how great Trump is, how libs are evil, and not any real discourse about the factory.

I could go on and on…the point is, it really seems like that sub is heavily influenced by Russia. I’m not saying it’s bots, but something is going on.

There's no reason it couldn't be hundreds of paid human bad actors. Doesn't even matter where they live.

When are we just going to admit that these MAGA are complete morons? There’s no conspiracy. They’re just fucking idiots.

2 upvotes from the same IP using different accounts gets tor a temp ban.

This is just not true. I do it all the time.

u/stay_fr0sty Monkey in Space Mar 05 '25

Agreed. I meant upvoting your own post/comment from another account on the same IP.

In guess bots are free to upvote/downvote from the same IP using different accounts all the time.

My bad.

Funny, this study says Trump supporters are the deranged ones.

The rest of us that object to their bullshit are the healthy ones...

We really need to claim "TDS" the way they claimed "woke"; it describes them much more accurately. They enter a hivemind divorced from reality.

Jesus Christ. That is terrifying. And why do they perpetually think that the left are “brainwashed by the media”? Where the fuck do they get that from? There are like two news sources who aren’t chortling trump’s balls constantly. And it’s terrifying that like two people out of the hundreds that commented said how dangerous that thinking is. It’s terrifying how they accuse Dems of “propaganda” when they themselves are spewing propaganda? Jesus fuck.

You just now realizing this? That was the whole point of trump popularizing "fake news" 9 years ago. It gives his people an out of all of the negative press that Trump knew he was going to get. Plus we're talking about the type of idiots that think simply being a contrarian counts as critical thought.

Yeah but the boys over at that sub are like 90% bots at this point. They don't even respond when you ask them something.
