First off, user reports are an important part of the process so thank you for reporting (as well as downvoting!) this type of content. If you see something, you can file a report at reddit.com/report or click the report button on an individual post or comment.

You get banned if you call someone a bot or shill. We're dealing with real rocket scientists over here. They have countless troll accounts and getting you banned by engaging them only makes their message dissemination easier. It's a losing battle because the mods and admins aren't mentally equipped to deal with these people.

Someone that disagrees with you is not a disinformation bot. Accounts that are literally posting leaked confidential information may be. I guarentee the reports are going to multiply now despite the low scale of the claims being investigated.

And here comes the part where anyone who posts an opinion someone doesn’t agree with is labeled a “disinformation bot.”

Realize that just because someone disagrees with you politically they most likely aren’t a bot.

Just keep reporting people that hurt your feelings. The admins will take care of the rest ;)

Lmao. If you think Reddit hasn't been manipulated by foreign actors long before this you are a bit naive. If anything Reddit has been painfully quiet about the problem.

What would that have to do with anything? The Intel leaked was genuine, the accusation is that Russia was proliferating the leaks.

For what? Removing some accounts that more got removed than the karma they earned combined?

Why do you think your small brain would be able to tell a bot from a real person.

How are classified document leaks "disinformation" in any sense of the word?

You must be retarded — this message is at best 2 years too late.

Realize how many of the disinformation campaigns come from our own government.
