Keep it civil. We're all people here. Be respectful to one another.

No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry. I should not need to explain this one.

Must be tumblr related. This one is kind of a given.

Try not to repost anything posted within the past month. Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.
-
No unnecessary negativity. Just because you don't like a thing doesn't mean that you need to spend the entire comment section complaining about said thing. Just downvote and move on.

Yeah, next time just reply with "check out my domain name", or ".ml" if you wanna be even more efficient. Most people will understand your point.
But just to reply to your point so you can't accuse me of not engaging with your bs or whatever : the russians are investing in propaganda for a "maybe 0.1%"? This And This And everything else just because of "maybe 0.1%"?
Everyone knows that there's multiple factors at play here, and even if trump wins this year, it won't be only because of bots and propaganda. Like you said, the fact that you can accept donations for your campaign is a huge factor in who gets most visibility. And because most voters are uneducated, they'll just vote for the most visible ones.
The thing is, most people around here accused of being bots aren't really bots nor paid by russia. I don't think anyone actually believes they are. But they're people on which the propaganda worked.
