    I look at any individual’s history when they post anything sketchy and contextualize. Anything politically motivated is likely a shill unless they have a long broadly engaged post history across many subjects with depth. I block a lot of people too.

      Do me! I’d honestly be interested in a report. I’m obviously not a bot, but what can you glean from my posts?

        I generally tag people when they say things I either really enjoy or very strongly disagree with. You’ve said a lot of things I very strongly disagree with including things I have found to be right-wing and gun-minded according to the tag I picked for you.

        It’s not a complete and probably not an accurate judge of your character, I just choose to do this so that I don’t have to engage in conversations with people where I feel it will be a waste of my energy.

      I look at any individual’s history when they post anything sketchy and contextualize. […]

      I am concerned that this would distill down to argumentum ad hominem.
