4chan's full of rebellious personalities. Think about how everyone says that the harder the vaccine is shilled, the more they don't want to take it. I generally agree that tactics of pressure should not be rewarded with compliance. If everyone were like this, advertising and other behaviorist economics would have no power.
This marketing strategy of making the book appear to have a grassroots memetic following is the only way to ear their trust; of course, finding out it's an ad all along will turn them against you even more and the FTC generally frowns on deceptive inline techniques.

That's why my M.O. is to not buy things that are advertised to me. Show me an interesting object, sure, and if its particular function is appealing to me then I'll buy the competitor's brand. They can suck on my cock for pretending they can string me along like a marionette.

god damn it, none of your niggers have ever self-published anything and it shows. Microsoft Word's default paper size is 8.5 inches by 11 inches, and when you upload to Amazon, it'll choose a book size that matches your word document.

Now, a smart man (not Gardner) would realize that's retardedly big and change their word document size to 6x9 inches, but he didn't do that and now he's stuck with a book for giants

he's a closet /pol/fag, like all irl incels. but since his closes shot at a job was through his dad's nepotism, he ran as a democrat for city water council or whatever. in all actuality I doubt he has any strong political beliefs, he's a rich-boy dilletante with a useless degree and, judging by his spam and his books, he thinks more about anime and goosebumps than anything politically relevant.

I deleted it, just posted it to make a point to Gardner.

I might email Frank's father and tell him everything he has been up to. Might tell him how he is force meming himself as a "right wing extremist" (His father is a Democrat too, so he would love to know his son is making a joke of the Holocaust). I might email his father the screenshots of him spamming on /pol/ as himself, before he started paying for advertisements and creating a fake meme campaign-- as supporting evidence, along with the thread he was caught samefagging yesterday.

I might contact Cook County Sherriff Department and ask them to do a welfare check on this 32 year old who lives with his parents and writes childrens stories about mass shootings, which he then spams on a known "hate website" (we all know 4chan is looked at as one big /pol/)

I might contact the ADL Illinois and report his activity, I might send them the proof and put him on the radar so he can wind up in their registry which is used by a number of serious employers along with the federal government.

I might send his info, along with what he's been doing, to Antifa's Chicago chapter which is a 16 minute drive from his home. Let them deal with his mess too.

I might do so much Gardner. Out of concern for you. Because I am concerned by your actions and the way you have been behaving online lately. I believe if your parents knew your activities they would be worried as well.

And I don't have to just contact your parents about your behavior, I can contact your grandparents and everyone else and make them aware of how you are acting.

A 32 year old man on a message board predominantly made up of Generation Z, spamming childrens stories about mass shootings while meming himself as a "fuhrer" and "supporter of the IRA".
