The Guy (OP) User ID: 76144 United States 10/30/2013 10:56 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Someone who visits forums like this one to make fun of people who believe that chemtrails are real, saying that his uncle has a high position in the army and therefore is absolutely certain that chemtrails are not real. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 49140991 I'd call that a troll rather than a shill. It's good to be open-minded, just don't let your brain fall out. |

DILKe User ID: 48496914 United States 10/30/2013 11:07 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Shills are everywhere in our lives. The largest group of PAID shills is Hollywood and the Media. They complain that life is not fair and we need to distribute wealth, drive electric cars, and not be racists... These clowns need to STFU. Last Edited by FBHO on 10/30/2013 11:08 AM Marxism is the true enemy of our civilization. What is Cultural Marxism: [link to www.bitchute.com (secure)] |

Op sounds like a shill trying to establish his cred as being impartial. Just wait long enough and he will say that one thing he was sent to say. You know the one. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 43268830 He is. Name was Gilligan. He and SnakeAnus would play off each other On the Chemtrail threads. A thread would pop up and they would be on it faster than fly on stink. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 45581443 United States 10/30/2013 12:14 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I'm quite surprised at the vote so far considering "Someone who is skeptical of your favorite theory" is usually why the term is used. Quoting: Wispa Don't be surprised at all. Check out this poll: Thread: Do You Believe in Shills? There are certain vocal types who DO throw out the accusation, but the forum on the whole knows precisely what a shill is. Lot of spin control going on with this board, and as much as I hate to say it, a huge majority are AC's. That's not to say there aren't some registered members with questionable posting histories as well. |

You still in the Navy? Quoting: Anonymous Coward 46750620 Yeah, I got bored with it. You can lead a man to knowledge, but you can't make him think. I haven't been on GLP that often in general lately. I'm still in the Navy, coming off a LIMDU tour from foot surgery. I'll be back on a ship soon.

That's why conspiracy theories exist. Quite a few are BS, but every once in a while, the theory is right on the money. Same thing with "shills." The word is mostly used as an insult, but there are real shills around. It's good to be open-minded, just don't let your brain fall out. |

I've been called a shill many times, you get used to it but it does seem anyone with an opposing opinion becomes one lately. |

The definition SHOULD be someone who gets paid, strictly speaking, but it is used frequently on GLP to apply to anyone who challenges a conspiracy theory that agrees with The Man's POV. |
Anonymous Coward User ID: 10872394 United States 10/30/2013 01:07 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | A shill is someone with an agenda to use peer pressure, condescending superiority and strong arm tactics to manipulate, control and confuse anyone that is sincerely searching for the truth and willing to utilize critical thinking. AKA most people with paid accounts and administrative positions, as well as AC's, on this web site. The hard part is trying to determine who is NOT a shill. |
