I have a theory about the heavy shilling, this is just my speculation.
I honestly believe our consciousness/awareness affects our reality and our world. I also believe that Anons are gifted and that they are some of the most awakened people on the planet.
So here is my theory. What if the shilling is also used to pollute the board so we have a harder time connecting our thoughts. It is being used as a dampener on our collective/united awareness. Which in turn also affects reality.
