paranoid mod is saying: U R A SHILL
if you were an astroturfer, you work for some marketing shill agency, and would pretend to be just another board user, except you would be working each post for the marketing objective. The Mod has taken the PARANOIA pill and therefore is not enlightened but increasingly suspect of any and all comments.
Astroturfer (working for KRAFT):
Mhm. really love vegemite
compare to-
obvious marketer:
Mhm, I really love KRAFT brand spreads. KRAFT Vegemite (tm) on toast with some KRAFT Cream Cheese (tm) is delicious!.
now to turn it up a notch, let's have another hypothetical astroturf.
Some of the yeast spreads in Aus are non-kosher, non-halal. Imagine a company marketer is tasked to promote their product (on /pol/ for some reason). They (in theory) might make a thread saying
>VEGEMITE IS JEW OWNED (KRAFT FOODS) SHIT
>IT'S ALSO KOSHER AND HALAL
>AUSTRALIANS, EXPLAIN YOURSELVES
and then later in the thread, hops in on another IP, says
>Guys, X-Mite is australian owned, non-kosher and halal. I reckon it tastes just about the same if not better. Still has enough bite but it's a lot smoother
you'd think it's just another user, but really they're promoting the product.
Catching an astroturfer relies on shitty opinionated heuristics, as such you're going to get a lot of false positives, as mod has done with you
