I'm reluctant* to believe that most of these votes come from actual people. Much of these are made possible by bot farms, I'd imagine. The opinions we read aren't necessarily to sway the minds of anybody with a three digit iq but rather to dissuade dissenting opinion. To make us feel more outnumbered than we are.
A sad lesson life has taught me is to never underestimate the amount of human stupidity out there
Reticent means "reluctant to speak". The word you need is actually "reluctant".
Hrmm. It does say "slow to begin or proceed with a course of action because of doubts or uncertainty" but yeah, reluctant is certainly the better word.
Reticient is a synonym of reluctant.
Here's the definition from Webster's Dictionary. Pay attention to the 3rd defintion-

I can assure you that most of the people who engaged me were not shills. How do I know? I have experienced shills before. They have all their fake news sources lined up, and alternate talking points ready to go. They sound very high minded and intellectual, and they rarely resort to personal insults. And they come in droves to boost each other.
These people, they were very emotional. They truly are afraid of the Covid and afraid of us. They really believe that we will cause them all to die (dont ask me how).
These people have a hard time pointing to any studies, hardly know any facts beyond "Anti-vaxx baddd", and some of the actually curious about Ivermectin and HCQ. They scream and yell and quit the thread.
Sadly, these people are real. They are probably the 4-6% Q told us about. The rest have started leaving reddit, or flocking to places like nonewnormal or conspiracy etc,
