I don't agree with the parent either, but this growing trend of accusing everyone you disagree with on the internet of being a paid shill is just getting absurd.

It's not so absurd when you are good friends with people who run astroturfing companies.

It's an attempt to nullify the speaker rather than responding to the statement. It's become quite the thing these days.

No I am not a paid shill, try again,

Ok, but it's not absurd.
