Why is the word gun partially hidden??

[–] betterdeadthanreddit@lemmy.world 14 points 8 hours ago* (last edited 8 hours ago) (1 children)

Because then people ask why gun is partially hidden. This is followed by somebody explaining why gun was partially hidden and then somebody else who comments on how the whole exchange is just making this tactic more effective.

It's all engagement which often leads to more reach and visibility for the post.

You're just making the tactic more effective by continuing to engage with it like this.
