[OC] Nearly every day, two users on r/Conservative account for more than 30% of new posts. Sometimes exceeding 50%. (Take 2. 6 images)

I don’t read r/conservative much but what I’ve seen is they keep banning actual conservatives because they correctly call out what Trump is doing on things where it’s not about left and right but right and wrong.

Some people are saying that it could be coincidental. OP asks why would the two accounts who post so regularly just happen to both stop at the same time on that day.

    Removing the conservatives who dissent might backfire on them bc they might end up thinking they’re not considered “conservative” anymore and find other ppl to hang out with. And the reddit shillbot page will just be talking to itself. One can hope

      Honestly, it probably is 70% bots and illegitimate posters at this point. Doesn’t matter though, if they still browse r/conservative while banned they’re getting fed from the teet of the outrage machine.
