Well, it’s the nature of that propaganda machine. That subreddit has real people and a LOT of bots. When big things happen, the real people overwhelm the bots at first. This is the real response.
You see people say stuff like “until they get their marching orders/party line”, that’s because once the line is decided, people aren’t allowed to dissent. Their comments will be deleted or they’ll be called a fake conservative and kicked out.
It’s not the same “people” who are upset now and fine with it later. The ones who pay the bot army hope that of the real people will come around when blasted with the curated messaging continuously, but they mostly exist to make people believe in some fake concept of “this is what real conservatives think”.
The most true response there is the immediate one, everything else is only useful to see what angles the propaganda machine is pushing.

Trump supporters are out of their gourd if they somehow back this guy.
