Chambers to this Caucasian coward: “If you’re taking seats from Black people, you’re a thief… when Black men with courage, conviction, and righteousness show up it triggers something in you — you may have the numbers, but you don’t have the courage.”

What to do when you see a political psyop post by someone who you can't tell if he is black or not

The post that I linked here is a classic example. You can quite safely expect the poster to be (at best) a concern troII or worse when you can check ALL THREE boxes:

Box 1. Use of Fox Newsy buzzwords like "Democrat shills" and bothsidesism/"conservative" talking points.

Box 2. Unverified account accompanied by grotesque "black and proud" phrases in the account's profile to make up for his real-life non-blackness.

Box 3. Hide all the posts and comments made by his account.

Do not let them make you lose your cool and reply with comments that can get you banned by Reddit. They are very good at that shtt.

Blocking them is a bad idea because that won't prevent them from using this sub to do further harm. But feel free to downvote what you don't like.

The most important thing to do is to report any misinformation spread by these accounts to the mods so they can ban those accounts from any future participation in this sub.
