      If they are, and if their goal is to keep us angry, then:

      • Bad news: They’re succeeding
      • Good News: I’m angry at them rather than whatever they’re aiming for.

      I also feel there’s an equal chance they’re just perpetually online buzzkills / Debbie Downers.

        Again, I know their schedule. Here are their priorities right now that’s probably pretty to close to the correct order:

        • Promote anything kirk that they can to keep that the conversation and not the nazi shit the admin is doing or the epstein connections for trump
        • Serial downvote anyone, posts or comments, they think isn’t promoting what they want.
        • “Discuss” things in huge diatribes that really don’t say anything and look like AI wrote, to hide genuine people’s opinions.
        • Try and get anything positive or fun downvoted by themselves, brigading or convince others to for “reasons.”
        • Cause a general vibe of anger on the front page.
