Facebook uncovers political influence campaign ahead of midterms

[Brain357]

If only they had done something before the presidential election....

You saw an ad on Facebook and flipped your vote to Trump.

Thank you for sharing

Nope, but many obviously did. I don't want foreign countries influencing our elections. You must be some sort of traitor.

You really have no idea how much money the Clintons took from China do you?

Do tell. Please provide proof also.

Several Clintonista campaigners went to prison for funneling money to the Clintons. The DNC had to pay back millions as well.

Among the Clinton fundraisers and friends who pleaded guilty were John Huang, Charlie Trie, James Riady, and Michael Brown, son of the late Clinton Commerce secretary Ron Brown. But many questions went unanswered, even after the revelations that Clinton had personally authorized offering donors Oval Office meetings and use of the Lincoln bedroom. A total of 120 participants in the fundraising scandal either fled the country, asserted their Fifth Amendment privilege against self-incrimination, or otherwise avoided questioning. The stonewalling worked — and probably encouraged Hillary Clinton in her own cover-up of her private e-mail server and her ties with the Clinton Foundation.

I don't see anything that resembles proof there. So they were taking money from the Chinese and republican congress did nothing. I'm sure....

The people who are influenced by propaganda shouldn't be voting in the first place. Apparently you are ignorant of Radio Free Europe attempts to influence political thought in the Warsaw Pact states? Or, the influence that the Communist Party, USA, had on our political thought in the forties and fifties.

Yes so I guess all the money spent during presidential elections is a waste. Are you really this stupid?

LOL. Her people plead guilty, or were found guilty and went to prison. The DNC and the Clintons had to give back millions after being caught.
I could care less if you don’t think that is proof, that only proves you’re a stupid hack that will never acknowledge facts when they contradict your political beliefs.

If they gave back the money when they found the source, what is the problem?

Anyone who could be swayed by a foreign influence should have their vote invalidated if proven.

Have you noticed how much is spent on elections? Yeah, people are influenced.

/-----/ Which ad flipped you to vote for Trump?
The Russian effort looks even less influential when one considers the tiny amount of Russian Facebook spending directed at key battleground states — $1,979 in Wisconsin, $823 in Michigan and $300 in Pennsylvania. From an electoral perspective, the campaign was remarkably unsophisticated.

And yet, the Russians only spent a measly $100,000 on Facebook advertising. Did you know that all campaigns directly paid Facebook a collective $11,313,483.59 across all races, according to Federal Election Commission numbers?

What Were Russians Trying to Do With Those Facebook Ads? - The Atlantic

How is a paltry $100,000 supposed to throw an election? How many votes did those vodka-imbibing bastards get for that measly sum of $100k? Enough to kick Hillary out of the election?

Honestly, you are giving the Russians way more credit that they deserve. The truth is, Hillary did more damage to the Bernie Sanders campaign, than any "Russians" did to the Hillary campaign.

/----/ I think it was wrong for Obozo to interfere in Israel's elections and it was wrong for Ted BELCH Kennedy to ask the USSR to interfere in Reagan's reelection,

But you are ok with Russia damaging our voting rights? Go figure.

Exactly how did any Russians damage your voting rights? Were there two burly Slavic people standing at the doors of your polling place in 2016, threatening to break your legs if you didn't vote for Trump?

Oh wait: Those were Black Panthers who were harassing voters at the polling places in 2012.

Were some Russians hacking into the electronic voting systems, changing your vote from Hillary to Trump? Not very likely, as those systems aren't even connected to the internet.

Maybe there was some ham-fisted guy named Ivan whispering in our ear as you filled out your paper ballot? Not very likely.

Or did you read some post on an internet discussion board or on Facebook, that persuaded you to vote for Trump instead of Hillary?

Do you have any idea how ridiculous this sounds? If you're trying to convince me that some die-hard leftist voting for whatever candidate the Democrat Party is running would suddenly have a change of heart and vote against his or her own party, I would have to say that you're nuts.

The sad truth is, your girl lost. Quit blaming "Russians" and own up to the fact that you people ran a horrible candidate who was out of touch with the people of this country. That is the sole reason Hillary lost.

You might have even elected Bernie Sanders, had not the Hillary campaign screwed him out of the nomination. You have nobody but yourselves to blame.

They were clearly influencing the votes of US citizens. Are you really this stupid? You think putin picking our leaders is good for the US?

/----/ You're chasing ghosts.

I don't know for sure but if Putin somehow picked the leader we currently have, he done seriously screwed the pooch.

They were complicit in taking the money from the Chinese. They only gave it back when caught.

The point is the left actually conspires with China and probably several other foreign countries to influence elections. Yet the left just ignores it and then acts outraged about Russians trying to influence an election.

Facebook uncovers political influence campaign ahead of midterms
Glenn CHAPMAN,AFP 1 hour 22 minutes ago

San Francisco (AFP) - Facebook said Tuesday it shut down more than 30 fake pages and accounts involved in what appeared to be a "coordinated" effort to stoke hot-button social issues ahead of November midterm US elections, but cannot identify the source despite hints Russia was involved.

It said the "bad actor" accounts on the world's biggest social network and its photo-sharing site Instagram could not be tied to Russian actors, who US officials say used the platform to spread disinformation ahead of the 2016 presidential election in the United States.

But the tech giant did say "some of the activity is consistent" with that of the Saint Petersburg-based Internet Research Agency (IRA) -- the Russian troll farm that managed many false Facebook accounts used to influence the 2016 vote.

You liberals have to be the most ignorant retarded propaganda tools on the planet....you act like fake news was just invented. ..

How do you feel about Don Jr. and his collusion with Russian agents? Or do you believe that's a fiction? Do you believe Don Jr. would keep secret that he and his brother-in-law along with Manifort has a meeting in Trump Tower about getting dirt on HRC, and didn't inform the President?

Sounds like a pre emptive excuse for a Democrat loss in November

If it were, which it is not, the D's would simply be following in the footsteps of your messiah, all summer before the election he whined that the election was fixed for HRC.

Nobody fucking believes you beat Putin's vote flipping, mind control efforts. Just stop it

It was propaganda posted by the Russian Military who convinced people on Facebook and the USMB, among other such Internet sources, that HRC was corrupt, and that she and the DNC sabotaged Bernie's campaign. It was sophisticated and credible as are most BIG LIES, and convinced some to vote for Trump, and others to not vote at all.

That much is clear. Since Trump won by a little over 70,000 votes distributed among WI, MI and PA your messiah lost the popular vote by 2.9 million votes, and has no mandate to dismantle all that he has destroyed.

Why Frank, do you hate America?
