In the sample it is about 10 a day. ## What he posts about From the [[Users/@krispykriskring/Topical List|Topical List]] (50 items): 1. **Banter and replies (19).** Short replies, "Have a great day Nicole 😀", jokes. 2. **Old cars, engines and racing history (8).** Chevrolet 396 and 427 V8s, the 1963 Plymouth Max Wedge, Smokey Yunick's 1972 Indianapolis idea, Bud Moore. His top car post (Smokey Yunick, Oct 28) drew 395 likes and 48K views. 3. **Political and news reposts (8).** Seven plain reposts of other accounts and one short reply ("It's a start." to @zerohedge). 4. **The shop and buying cars in Germany (6).** Cotter pins (68.6K views), a multi-part account of buying a used Škoda Fabia. 5. **Food, family and nostalgia (5).** Scrapple ("Panhas" in Germany), Tastykake. 6. **"History lesson" posts (4).** The Social Security card post (9,076 likes, 308K views) drew 23 times the likes of his next-best post in the sample (395). Two more "HISTORY LESSON" posts followed: the federal income tax (Oct 27, 5 likes) and Medicare (Oct 28, 6 likes). Neither was analysed. They did not reach the audience of the first. **Style.** Chatty, first-person, with a hobbyist's voice. The "history lesson" posts open with "Just in case some of you young whippersnappers…" and are forwarded chain-email text, not his own writing; the car posts are original text with detail. The card post's reach came from a mostly false text, not from his usual subject. ## Fact-check scorecard (this project) | Post | Verdict | |---|---| | [[Users/@krispykriskring/Post Analyses/Post Analysis - krispykriskring on the Social Security Card History Lesson (2026-10-25)\|Oct 25: Social Security card history lesson]] | ❌ mostly false; 5 "promises" are not in the 1935 law; party blame wrong; wage cap figure is old; the 85% and Gore vote partly real | ## Interactions with @marshallpittman See the box above.
