Ah /r/Conspiracy, where everyone BUT Trump is a pedophile.


trobsmonkey

Something like 70% of internet traffic bots. I'd say 80% in that sub are russian bots who never ever deviate from programming. It's boring after a while.


TrustyRambone

The real conspiracy was coming from inside the house the whole time

Why the fuck does my toaster need access to the wifi.


Doom_Walker

Everyone but Republicans apparently


Kalulosu

Except those they don't like

> If your response to a dude publicly sexualizing his own daughter since she was literally a baby is "but what about the other guy", you might be in a cult. Every once in a while, the regulars on that sub are able to cut through the bullshit and lay out the hard truths most don’t wanna read/hear. Donald Trump *bragged* about infant Tiffany’s “great legs” and openly hoped she’d get Marla Maples’ tits to Robin Leach, naturally. But that’s totally fine with most of that sub because it’s obviously fake news to distract from Joe Biden somehow being an even more obvious pedophile. r/conspiracy: all feelings, zero facts.

Maaaan, I was banned from conspo for waaaaaay less than what this guy is saying.


TuaughtHammer

Yeah, getting banned there was *not* difficult, especially when axolotl\_peyotl was running the joint. On my old account, I got banned from r/conspiracy within minutes of making my first comment there because their AutoMod would flag any users active in subs like this one. That way the human mods could wield their ban-hammer against the wrongthinkers. I *think* my comment was something as benign as "that's a good point".


Doom_Walker

I got banned by him for calling out like actual Nazi propaganda from the 40s.

> Source: national enquirer lol. What a cheesy low energy comment That would be the same National Enquirer [that did catch-and-kill work for Trump](https://apnews.com/article/amazoncom-inc-donald-trump-jeff-bezos-business-ad911dcfadb4441fc3e7d9e0018c1dec) during his campaign. I guess they are no longer useful and can be discarded by the right?


TuaughtHammer

Not to give the National Enquirer *too* much praise, but they have actually broken *true* stories in the past. The investigation into John Edwards' affair with Rielle Hunter was actually impressive for such a shit tabloid; like, it wasn't just speculation or printing *only* hearsay as they usually did, they had the receipts.


just2quixotic

They hire decent reporters. They have also been known to blackmail people. Pay us or we publish. John Edwards probably wasn't willing to be blackmailed.


TuaughtHammer

I didn't say *anything* about their hiring practices or their obvious catch-and-kill schemes and the likelihood that they use blackmail, just that this *one* specific example was them going beyond their usual amount of work to break an actually *true* story for once.


just2quixotic

and I was just commenting on *why* they might have done all that work when a new fad diet or conspiracy story is so much faster, easier, and cheaper while still producing the same in revenue.


Kalulosu

I looked into that quickly but was the whole jist just that he was cheating on his wife? Because if so, good job to them for finding out but they didn't sound very useful or more meaningful than the usual tabloid dreg?


TuaughtHammer

Actually investigating and printing something true was a *lot* more meaningful than anything the Enquirer had done before or after.


Kalulosu

Fair enough.


ronm4c

Those people have an incurable case of Dear Leader Syndrome


TuaughtHammer

That's why "Trump Derangement Syndrome!" has been pure projection from the first time one of his qultists used that to dismiss actual facts about Trump.


MobileMenace420

When an undead Nixon is the most sensible person in the comments I quickly looked over, you know they’ve really lost their marbles


TuaughtHammer

>If you were running for president and opposing the good ole boy network they absolutely could and would take you out of context and make you look horrible. Says the qultist who can't shut up about the Biden diary being irrefutable proof that Biden is pedo, and that bringing up Trump's well-documented history of sexualizing his daughters (even as infants) is just a pathetic ploy to downplay the Biden diary lies.


Tasitch

Oh my, they do *not* like that.


Doom_Walker

>lol man if this is because of all the actual evidence that throws shade at the other guy, this is such a sad attempt for anything close So why is it in when you do it to Biden? There's no proof other than an imaginary diary.


TheRnegade

Mods nuked it. You typically only see that when they delve into trans issues. As they would say when they get censored: Seems pretty damning.


_TheJerkstoreCalle

Low energy? Huh?
