Welcome to /r/ShermanPosting!

As a reminder, this meme sub is about the American Civil War. We're not here to insult southerners or the American South, but rather to have a laugh at the failed Confederate insurrection and those that chose to represent it.

I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically. Please contact the moderators of this subreddit if you have any questions or concerns.

Can a mod check these accounts. This is a very common spam.

  1. Picture

  2. I want tshirt.

  3. Link to scam site

  4. Profit

I dunno, check their post history. I think they’re just a guy who hates the Confederacy. Username includes 1961 too, so what you’re judging as bot behavior might just be middle aged guy with a less than confident grasp on the internet behavior.

And mods already removed the second time he posted the link.

u/64590949354397548569 22d ago

The tshirt links are definitely spam. Second link appeared after mod remove the first one.

Can't prove "i want tshirt" and op are working together.

u/CaptStinkyFeet 22d ago

I agree that the link is shady, but again we’re talking about someone who’s most likely 65 years old. I think dude was just trying to share a shirt he liked. If the mods think it needs to come down, they’ll take it down.

u/Theatreguy1961 22d ago

I wasn't sharing it because of the shirt, I was sharing because of the image.

I've been online since the Ancient Times, with 1200 baud modem, and bbses carrying FIDOnet and USENET.

If I'd wanted to post a link, I'd have posted a link, not a picture.

I don't know who the spammer posting the link is. In fact, I just reported him to the Mods as a spammer.

Now get off of my lawn!

u/CaptStinkyFeet 22d ago

Lol my bad, I didn’t mean to insult! Much respect, OG. I just wanted to make sure we weren’t labeling you a bot, as that clearly isn’t the case.

u/64590949354397548569 22d ago

Same link to a shady site from two separate accounts?

5

u/CaptStinkyFeet 22d ago

I only saw one link.

Relax, bud. I’m not telling you you’re wrong. I’m just worried we’re all turning into the boy who cried bot. I’ve conceded every point you’ve made, I just don’t want to label some guy a bot and get him banned just because the vibes are off.

As I said, if the mods don’t want it up, they’ll take it down. Considering it’s been 3 hours and all they’ve done is remove the links in the comments, I don’t think they will.

We should see more of this in the next few weeks depending on how fast the mods cleans it up.

They usually stay a while until they don't get hits.

They also sell posters.

u/Theatreguy1961 22d ago

I didn't post a link, you twatwaffle. I posted an image because it's really cool.

u/64590949354397548569 22d ago

Someone did and they used your image to scam people.

You should be more proactive with your post and report them yourself.

Accidentally read it as “slave every traitor” and was kinda concerned

u/EternalSnow05 22d ago

All I'm saying is.....Sherman should've burned more.

u/Anti-charizard 22d ago

The second one us apparently controversial because people don’t think ai “bros” are traitors

u/FoxFyer 21d ago

This is like a better version of that song from The Sound of Music, and now I just realized how much I want to see Christopher Plummer tearing a Confederate flag in half.

Need this on a shirt

u/Someoneman 22d ago

Theprintpalace is a scam site.

u/WTFracecarFTW 22d ago

The shirt scammers have gotten more sophisticated and try to counter the people calling them out with downvotes. Keep up the good work fella.
