It's important to be aware that a lot of trolling accounts disguise themselves as something/somebody other than who they actually are. They try to bait us into futile discussions of issues that are imporant – but that they themselves don't intend to discuss, since discussion is not their goal.
Above all, their goal is to sow confusion, spread disinformation, and divide in order to conquer. We must not let folks like this win.
@wdlindsy Those are good points. Right now the trolls are back at their specialty of producing negativity in their readers regarding the multiple attacks on human rights from conservatives. 'Debbie Downer trolls'. On multiple subjects, not just Biden or dems. Cows with flu, FBI whatever, various societal problems. Posts to undermine the government that protects human rights are big. Highlighting the phony political polling is also a specialty of theirs.
@timo21 An excellent point: "back at their specialty of producing negativity in their readers regarding the multiple attacks on human rights from conservatives." Yes, they want to demoralize us, to make us think that concerted action to challenge autocratic impulses is impossible, wasted time.
@wdlindsy the worst is, it is not just the trolls. reason why i am so furious about this issue is that serval well meaning, well educated individuals, leaders in the enviro movement have das their anti-imperialism exploited by russian propaganda and there is no more talking to them. end result of this is stuff like this being hosted by US universities: https://mahb.stanford.edu/library-item/114-chuck-watson/
@wdlindsy and there is no talking two these two, i really tried hard when this all started, but obviously i am just "brainwashed by NATO propaganda"...
