Half the comments on that site are from new accounts. Day old accounts that seem like admin alts. What happened to that place?

raddle is an old reddit clone which was always inhabited mostly by alts of extremely online anarchist ziq

and that's not even speculation or anything, it was a whole thing ages ago where ziq alienated most of their actual users when it was revealed that most of the site's activity was their alts. they apologized, then they later un-apologized and bragged about it

my main memory of that place was someone going on a rant about socialism being a "dusty 20th century ideology" and really everybody should be going in on something called third world illegalism
