The following accounts appear to be astro-turf puppets, used for synchronized voting. Created about 2 years ago with no, or very low activity.

    interesting…

    All of the above LW accounts have been self deleted, except the last one.

    AND Allukathecutie7725@LW upvoted this post, and then made a new account allukathecutie7725@blahaj. Just to be crystal clear the new account was created AFTER this post was made.

    I suppose that is as close to a confirmation as can be expected.

    They left their non LW accounts still up (from the original post)

    @TheDude@sh.itjust.works You might want to checkout two of the above accounts for being part of a astroturf ring on your instance

      Those five accounts were self-deleted within 2 hours of you making this post. Somebody noticed that you caught onto them.

      I briefly looked into the remaining accounts you mentioned. Their voting patterns look very similar, but I’m not convinced they are colluding. It’s easy to imagine multiple users having similar opinions.
