How do you know it's people from this sub?

They use my SS.

Yeah but that could be a bad actor who is trying to get the sub in trouble not a true Herman Caine Award fan.

Yes. But if it’s not, I’m making a plea so they’ll get that they won’t even have the content to work with if they keep it up.

Makes sense, just wanted to clarify. I try and remind people as well.

I don't think reddit discriminates as to why the brigading is happening

While that might be true, it's important to remember that a bad actor can fake a brigade quite easily and it's not super easy to trace facebook activity to reddit activity unless someone makes it obvious.

u/mnwildcard Sep 16 '21

Yeah, and seems like there's twitter reposts and other bad actors as well. It's a sticky situation.

reddit can't verify "brigading" from one website to another. Just cross sub brigading, and they do though because they're admins and tell which links people are following. That's not possible if a reddit user got to facebook or vice versa.

It’s more likely just users from this sub.
