That was an SPAC in 2016, OP said "the night of the DNC primary in 2015." I was there for the CTR debacle, the SPAC hasn't existed since 2016(?), do you think they're still funding accounts?

The DNC primaries started in early 2016, so they're definitely misremembering part of the timeline. If we go by "primaries" and not "2015", then they probably are remembering CTR - it lines up almost exactly to when they started.

And yeah, it's probably not them but it definitely feels like something is still going on. In the Chicago subreddit, for example, on anything that touches a politically-charged topic, the comments and votes will be exactly opposite what they might be on a different day.
