Allegely $46,000 spent by the so-called "Troll Farms" on ads mostly after the election. If anything, they attempted to trigger a witch hunt, exactly what the Swamp/MSM is doing now. Nobody would be stupid enough to think trolling could influence an election...oh wait...we have Hazelnut as exhibit A...
reading up on a lot of this these days now that the PANIC PANIC is dying down and some real facts can start coming out.
they were 0.004% of facebook traffic
the ads themselves were NOT trump support. they were simply pitting extreme against extreme and letting us do the rest
90 people work in their troll farm and they had $2mil to spend
they sponsored ANTI-TRUMP RALLIES - gosh, that's helping the man, huh? stirring up people to hate him and throwing gas on his stupid commentary (trumps stupid commentary)
basically, whatever we were scared of, they amplified. took it to 11. gave us "validation" for our fears and/or hate. they didn't care what they fed us as long as we reacted and fell apart. we're over here swallowing it hook, line and sinker and tearing into our own neighbors because of it. they got us and got us good and all of it is legal.
*WE* - as in "we the people" need to learn to stop believing anything that supports our beliefs so easily and quickly. we damn sure need to stop doing it for our hate cause that's all russia is doing is feeding the living shit out of our hate.
all the left will remember fondly when obama said "that's just what the terrorists want" well all the hate and confusion, that's all that russia wants. if you make it more than that you're doing it for yourself, which is again what the goal of a troll is. to get to you and make you emotional beyond repair at times.
we the people need to get smarter and stop the hate they've been feeding us for years now we've been far too willing to believe.
