Ooh, you guys must have Sig pinned...she's itemizing responses again.

Sig, just FYI...the more you scream "I'M NOT RUSSIAN" the more you look Russian. A person who wasn't Russian affiliated wouldn't care in the slightest.

WISHY, the more you scream RUSSIA!! the more you look like a deliberate libeler. Apparently, nobody has clued you in. You might want to shut up now.

As long as you insist that everything is the Republicans'/ Democrats' fault, then you fail to grasp the REAL problem with American politics.

Do you know this couple?

Meet the Moscow Mouthpiece Married to a Racist Alt-Right Boss
She spreads the words of Russia’s most virulent propagandist. He’s a leading racist hate-monger. Nina Kouprianova and Richard Spencer are a very different kind of power couple.

I already have, in this thread http://www.fireflyfans.net/mthread.aspx?tid=58882

BTW, if you think you're being "clever" by insinuating that I'm Russian instead of saying it outright .... you're not.

1. I under estimated how many people hated Hillary and just how much they hated her. If you recall, I said many bad things about her, but there was a larger than anticipated ground swell of hatred for her. Much of that was due to the false info from people like the walkaway shills.- CC

"False info" like ... what? That she was videoed saying "We came, we saw, he died" *giggle*? You've mentioned "false info" a couple of times, and you've never been able to show that it [anything posted here] was "false". - SIGNY

So, what, specifically, do you find was "false info" about "walk away"?

What, specifically, was "false info" about Hillary? (At least, as posted here. I have little knowledge about what's posted on Twitter/FB or other social media except as other people tell me about it.)

The following post is more for the record since I know SIGNYM will just deny and deflect as usual.

Hey SIGI: get over it again for the 35th time. Your posting history suggests even to a mollusk that you and KIKI are pro Russia. Get over it 2: You post many things that many of us disagree with, and some vehemently - that's people exercising their right to free speech.

I don't deny the logic, but you're pretending that nobody else has access to Twitter and nobody else knows how to manipulate it. There's only one good response to the problem of media-manipulation (because it comes from all directions on all different channels) and that is to listen to multiple sources, focus on the facts, and try to understand the big picture.



Guess you forgot my original posts to you and KIKI that if we do it you know that Russia does it. Maybe there's a clue in there why I don't think you are genuinely interested in honest discussion?

Big Picture: Russia used social media to manipulate voters to believe a multitude of negative untruths about Hillary and false positives about Trump to influence the election. No, I'm not "butthurt" about Hillary losing, I'm pissed off that no one seems to be doing anything about past and current Russian social media influences.

Because it's being promoted by Russian bots giving false impressions.

This is why you're being tagged as a troll.



Geez, I was being sympathetic! Besides, you "tag" everyone who disagrees with you as a troll.
PLUS - You are being tagged as a Troll for posting images of mutilated child corpses.

Here's a primer - note "astro turf" at the end - that's the promotion of false info. BTW - this is information every AMERICAN - no matter who you vote for - should know and understand, including everyone here.

Bots vs. Shills

Let’s start by differentiating bots and shills.

Bot: A bot is a fake social media account under the control of an organization or government seeking to influence the online community. For instance, a Twitter bot set to retweet certain hashtags and phrases in such volumes that it amplifies the specific topic. Another example is Reddit bots downvoting views disagreeing with the bot controller opinion (while upvoting those that do agree). Bots require volume for success on c

Are you sure they were Democrats calling you up? How do you know?
They identified themselves as DNC or DCCC pollsters and were accepting donations at DNC and DCCC addresses. The surveys had DNC and DCCC return addresses, postage paid. Either there is someone committing wire fraud/ postal fraud, or they are legitimate organizations.

It's like fake social media accounts that seem human. We should all be outraged by this - where's your indignation
If you accepted my challenge at staying on-topic and not getting personal, you just lost, because you are ascribing a POV to me.
