        Yes, honestly imo I don't think so, would GM really spend several hours a day as a reddit power user? it's more likely it's some random who can't be fucked to deal with the harassment they'd get if they start posting publicly again

          Maybe. Why would they stop posting in the first place? That's what started the conspiracy in the first place. I doubt they would face much harassment if they just acted normal. Why does the account inactivity match up with some wedding and funeral dates? It's not really worth dwelling on it too much though, since it's pretty inconsequential compared to the rest of what ghislaine did.

            I believe their posting stopped several days before the arrest, and there are several more likely reasons for this that than the account being connected to GM: holiday, medical problems etc, and they didn't resume posting because of the massive amount of messages and replies from the /r/conspiracy brain trust after they decided it was confirmed based on the circumstantial evidence you've provided

            I doubt they would face much harassment if they just acted normal.

            Bullshit, any new public activity; even a categorical denial along with proof the user isn't GM, would just incite another wave of 'theorizing' and harassment; 'see they hired a crisis actor to throw us off the trail, maxwellhill == jizzlane CONFIRMED'

            True we probably will never know for sure, but it being a random person rather than GM requires less assumptions and is thus more likely imo

              Yeah conspiracy is pretty braindead. They constantly whine about "powermods controlling the narrative on reddit" which is probably why they are latching onto this so hard, even though it's nothing compared to the other stuff.

                Yeah, that along with waiting to feel 'useful' to a situation they have no power over
