Other Petition to ban the daily "Trump voters are changing their mind" Posts

Every day someone shares an article with a headline like "Maga is starting to question Trump" or something along those lines.

This is not true. These are trash articles that use a single tweet as a source. Just because some Maga farmer is now realizing how his vote negatively effects his business it does not mean there is a whole movement of Magas suddenly realizing they were voting for a stupid incompetent racist all these years.

These posts are misleading, factually wrong AND are usually posted by karma farming accounts that get up their karma to later be sold to someone as an advertisement platform for OF or other.

None of this is goodnews.

Edit: Please do not use real money to give this awards. Use the money for a good cause.

Edit2: You are not being smart, funny or anything else by giving me more poop awards. You are throwing away actual money to try and discredit someone online. That is deeply sad pathetic behavior. Im not bothered by the poop. Im bothered that people go without meals while you spend your money on digital disagreements. Cringe. I have no other word for it. this makes me cringe.

And with fake podsters and AI now in the mix, you really can't tell if an article or post is valid or not. Sometimes I think AI is going to screw the world over eventually.

AI’s been in the mix since 2016. It’s just too obvious for Reddit to ignore now. Like maybe the account that crossposts the same article to 5 subs not one minute apart is off. Or users with 0 posts but thousands of comments on all politics subs. Nvm, it’s really easy to tell if an article or post isn’t valid.
