    You can tell they are Russian accounts when they only tell pertinent truths and stay on topic.

    Do you think there will come a point where the Russiagaters start eating their own? Personally I want to see a NYT article calling an MSNBC host a Russian op or something.

        Yeah, The whiplash I got from reading MSM is what made me read Manufacturing Consent. From there it was just a continual journey leftward, especially because that was around the time I had to start fully supporting myself by selling my labor for sub-minimum wage.

          I don't know why manufacturing consent gets a bad rap from communists, like I know Chomsky is a lib and his conclusions don't nearly go far enough, but like 95% of the book is them presenting American atrocities that you've likely never even heard about and detailing how the American media lied about it.

            I think it's important to remind people that Chomsky sucks. Especially anyone who's read Manufacturing Consent. Otherwise you risk them sliding back into liberalism and not radicalizing.

            If I hadn't been bullied about it I never would have kept going and reached the correct conclusions instead stewing in Chomsky's contradictions.

        I dunno, I think if someone could cobble together a halfway convincing Twitter digital phrenology post "proving" that Xeni Jarden is Chinese, the CNN libs would turn on the MSNBC libs. Antics would ensue, followed by mimosas.

          I love that her real name is Jen Hamm. The most boring name in existence.

    Yes the hundreds of years of multigenerational trauma resulting from black people being forced in chattel slavery was a Russian twitter campaign, please pay me a six figure salary DNC.

        I can't find any screenshots but it was a riff on the 'if you don't do X for biden you're supporting trump' nonsense with the punchline being "liberals if you pay me $300 I'll vote for biden" Tumblr then went on to ban her entire account.

    100% chance the front page of Vox ran articles that used the phrase "systematic racism" that same week if not day, this is beyond parody

    So is the "voter suppression...online" when you're a shitty media company that accuses people holding extremely mainstream views on American history of being Russian bots? If so then good job on the meta-commentary vox!
