You may have noticed a distinct lack of return2ozma. This is due to their admitting, in a public comment, that their engagement here is in bad faith:

I’m sure there will be questions, let me see if I can address the most obvious ones:

  1. Can I still post negative stuff about Biden?

Absolutely! We have zero interest in running an echo chamber. However, if ALL you’re posting is negative, you may want to re-think your priorities. You get out of the world what you put into it and all that.

  1. Why now?

Presumption of innocence. It may be my own fault, but I do try to think the best of people, and even though they were posting negative articles, they weren’t necessarily WRONG. Biden’s poll numbers, particularly in minority demographics ARE in the shitter. They are starting to get better, but he still has a hell of a hill to climb.

  1. Why a 30 day temp ban and not a permanent ban?

The articles return2ozma shared weren’t bad, faked, or from some wing-nut bias site like “beforeitsnews.com”, they were legitimate articles from established and respected news agencies, pointing out the valid problems Biden faces.

The problem was ONLY posting the negatives, over and over and then openly admitting that dishonest enagement is their purpose.

Had they all been bullshit articles? It would not have taken anywhere near this much time to lay the ban and it would have been permanent.

30 days seems enough time for them to re-think their strategery and come back to engage honestly.

    Has anyone been banned for only posting good stuff about Biden?

      Hard to tell when the front page was flooded with negative posts from one user.

      If we start seeing a bunch of “Biden is the best President we’ve ever had!!!1!!” posts from the same user over and over, obviously I’d consider it. :)

        This is the exact point. He was banned for spamming the same thing over and over. It was boring!

        After I blocked him myself I realized he contributed nothing but drama. Go on Twitter if you want to create drama

      Or banned for posting only negative stuff about trump? I don’t really post, but I’m definitely “guilty” of always being critical of trump, and most Republicans in general in my comments.

        That’s the thing: you’re not spamming it.
