Worked 12 hours today and came home to a response to said OP! Responded to your comment.

Hmmmm, my shift? WOW the CT theories about paid posters is hillarious!

It was also addressed by Skinner...

This whole who-is-the-paid-shill witch hunt is disruptive nonsense.

It betrays an utter lack of creativity on the part of the people making the accusation. They are so convinced that they are right that they cannot imagine someone else might hold a different point of view in good faith. Either that or they are incapable of advocating for their own point of view on the merits.
