The election is over, did you expect them to keep telling you to vote 3rd party when there is no election to vote for them in? Perhaps you noticed that all the "Vote Harris" commercials stopped too?
If they're legitimate users, I expected them to continue to exist, occasionally commenting on memes and cat pictures and whatnot like the rest of us.
But they're entirely gone instead, almost as if they stopped working once they stopped getting paid.
I assure you they do, they just aren't saying "Fuck Harris vote for this cat instead" on cat pics, because that would be insane.
Edit: Upon reflection, the cat is likely the best candidate.
I've been around, commenting on stuff! Which specific users are you talking about disappearing? I'd love to see actual evidence for this conspiracy theory!
The one(s?) that got permabanned for posting about third parties, apparently.
I gotta booted off world for telling the truth about the democrat party, that they’re the party of useful idiots and only exist to stop the left. They’d rather lose to a fascist than appeal to the left. It says way more about who they actually represent than the voters themselves. The democrats and republicans are both the party of capital. The democrats just pretend to be progressive. Where was Kamala Harris when the tie breaking senate vote to protect the NLRB seat was going on? They don’t even hide how much they hate the working class now that they lost the election.
Name one.
Linkerbaan was mentioned, which I was referencing.
They weren’t banned for posting about third parties. Try again.
Were they not permabanned or something? My comment is based on a thread comment, but you're apparently in-the-know or doing research on this.
I do like how the other user who commented on mine got banned in the middle of this. How quaint.
They were permabanned, but not because of their politics. It was because they were an antagonistic troll.
What commentor got banned?
A very selective bar, that.
It’s in the modlogs. Verifiable. So I’m not sure what “selective bar” means here.
Do you have all these usernames memorized or something? How can you be so certain they are "entirely gone"
if they're people OP was arguing with then they just need to scroll back in their account history to see those conversations again
But then they might have to acknowledge that those people have other conversations other than that and it would break their simple view of reality that they so desperately cling to
