There’s also 1 million more people than in 1989 and (I think?) a larger portion of NYCers are registered dems now. So that’s not actually that good. We should break turnout records every year if our population grows.

The problem is, unlike most people realize, astroturfing is rarely sourced from shill accounts like it used to be. Nor are high-karma accounts being purchased.

The issue is bots and shill accounts manipulate vote counts of posts/comments with certain positions. So, you don’t tell the difference, unless you find a way to track who is voting on Reddit content.

Why would the US arm people who hate us?

Wait, which time?

Removed by mod

That’s just about the opposite point of the article but ok

Democrats want new leaders for their party, which many feel isn’t focusing enough on economic issues and is over-emphasizing issues like transgender rights and electric vehicles, a Reuters/Ipsos poll found.

Did you read the news this weekend?

Sorry, you’re now deliberately spreading misinformation. I really tried to give you more chances.

If hardly anybody knew, how did turnout exceed expectations within 2 hours?

You’re also blatantly ignoring the other posts on that sub to push a false narrative.

You made a misleading post. I corrected the record with a simple explanation. Sorry that spam isn’t allowed on Reddit or Lemmy. When 50 people post the same thing, 49 are going to get removed every single time.

Might work if you spring for the custom feature where you get your own unique IP. But Redfin will recognize VPN IPs

Because the mod deleted your first post and you were spamming.

For the record, I was pretty close to deleting this post for spam. Insulting people isn’t convincing me to leave it up

Yeah, the automod removed your second post. And no, I’m not going to scroll back through the subreddit when you are capable of that.

When there’s already a top post reminding people to vote, mods should remove other posts saying the same thing. That’s called spam.

Those dogs need a field. They are ready to play

This post is 1.8 years old lol

I love when people are like “look, my city has a mural!”

Okay, but Philly has over 4,000

Like you said, it’s not new information that Tik Tok hides posts on certain topics and promotes posts on other topics though, so it isn’t surprising either way. I’ll add that they do it with more than just pro-China content

In case you’re a dude who never used a good sex toy, this is kinda accurate

I’m not seeing the evidence that you are claiming.

There are many reasons that unpaid volunteer mods delete content, including reposts, issues with the OP, etc.

His pardon cracks me up. There’s little “law and order” logic to it.

And I know he’s basically guilty of the charges because i-errr… some close friends of mine…. Used his platform and got highly quality drugs
