My vocal opposition is due to your shills
Then it is based on a false premise, since we have never employed any shills.
Given the foundation of your position being false, you might want to reconsider it, at least if you are going to be honest and logically consistent about it at all. Obviously you are not forced to.
You don't have to employ shills to have shills
Actually we do, if you know what the word means. Shills are people who act without disclosing their affiliation. If they had some affiliation, they would be shills, but they don't so they are not. They are just supporters (with whom you can certainly disagree) or possibly shills for someone else doing a reverse psychology attack. (Third possibility being detractors who are not shills doing a reverse psychology attack.)
