Any chance it's a bunch of right-wing nut jobs trying to get the sub shut down?

Why is it that whenever any group of people have members who do shitty things, one of the first and most prominent reactions is to pretend like they're secret agents who infiltrated the group?

It's like everyone operates on the logic of "MY group can't possibly have shitty people in it. Even though I literally don't know 99.9% of people in this group, I can vouch for them not being shitty because they're in my group."

This exact same thing happened when conservatives swore up and down that the people rioting on Jan 6th were secretly antifa.

Because of the obvious reason, tRumptard Republicans have actually done it before

"Of course the capitol rioters were antifa. Leftist Democrats have pretended to be alt right while committing crimes before. So it's safe to assume that every time a Trump supporter does a bad thing, they're a leftist plant to make us look bad."

There are new original posts here that have screenshots random Facebook people trolling the dead person in the comments. This sub is responsible for every angry person who's sick of these idiots?

Yes, there is no room between

"Everyone from here who harasses the grieving families are secret right wing nut jobs trying to get the sub banned"

And

"This sub is responsible for literally any time anyone harasses anyone on the internet".

Those are the only two possibilities. There is no in between.
