    Yup, on reddit I would. But you get blocked pretty quick and the site bans the IP if you circumvent that.

    I noticed the right do this all the time. Infiltrate a lot of places I visited that weren’t even political. But multiple accounts would post rage bait and not stop then laugh as people got all worked up. Its harder with their subs and forums because they usually lock their stuff up or have aggressive content removal policy

    Thing is it can get good discussion of you get some past them. But there’s a tight moderation that controls what they will discuss.

        No haven’t done it there. Reddit and twitter. But I named gab and truth social as heavy right wing sites since most people here won’t go back to reddit or twitter anymore.

            No, I have done it. But also not an American so not as intent on spreading republican shit posts. I often go into right leaning places and stir shit to engage with them. From what I observe there isn’t many who do and that is a big issue to me since it is something they do often. And by doing it they spread a lot of their information rapidly whereas information on the left moves at a snails pace because it struggles to break out of certain groups.
