/u/PastorJohnny tell us why. Are you anti-America? Are you anti-American?

    yeah, that son of a bitch will probably come back hiding under some new fangled username..

    i am keeping my eyes peeled for him and his bullshit.

    He's not hiding under any NEW username, though. One day, it will be like the Scooby Doo Mysteries. "It was old man Johnson all along".

    Welcome to Saidit, new friend, I'm sure you'll fit right in.

    That bot is designed to build dissent within the American populace. It is from a foreign actor; either directly or farmed out. They don't care about the message, as long as it increases political or social tension.

    It's not really building dissent when it's so similar to what many braindead anti-western people post someone is fooled into arguing with it almost 50% of the time.

    More like upping the numbers of idiots already out there.

      There's nothing I can think of to say that would prove your statement wrong.

        Isn't that real life sometimes?

          But we have. Take "yellow journalism" that helped get the U.S. into war with Spain over Cuba. I agree that MSM is in bed with the government now, and instead of propaganda, they are actively colluding for censorship against any inconvenient truth.

              So treat these forums as such. Take everything with an open, but skeptical mind.

                normal every day people would never wade thru this sewage pipe of insults and censorship to get their news or to communicate with others.

                Thank goodness.

                  Which do you identify as?

                  The metaphor is interesting, though. The sewer you mention has waste water deep enough to swim. Are the walls made of brick, or are they newer, and made of concrete, or another material? Are there ladders up to personholes? Any lighting? What's the diameter?

                  I've only seen sewers in 'urban explorer' videos, and video games, and neither invokes a desire to enter one in real life. Plus you can die from sewer gasses. Not to even mention the zombies and other critters.

                  Anyway, I identify as one of the weirdos in your metaphor, although I'm up on the elevated walkway at the side instead of swimming.

                  I have seen first hand how this kind of propaganda pushes people further into a fervor that they would not normally have fallen into. If this bot gets a few people worked up enough to talk to, and convince, their friends in real life, then it works even better.

                    I don't think people are necessarily sheep, but people are social creatures and that gives con artists and power grabbers more room to maneuver.

                    Ruqqus is dead. Link is dead. Comments here are deleted and I cant figure out what this dead drama was all about.
