Bushbot is a term that is flung at anyone who disagrees with someone. Usually one of the 1 percenters. The general hysteria was egged on here by a lot of people who were deliberately trying to spread dis-information.

Freepers, as a rule, tend to research things, not jump off a cliff following some mindless leader.

You're not going to change minds, the 'hate bush crowd no matter what' swarms during events like this. Where are they on other issues? Like defending the wot? ... *crickets*

Freepers, as a rule, tend to research things . . . .

Not on trade threads, unfortunately. Some time ago a thread was posted about Intel building a $300M chip plant in Vietnam. Much wailing, rending of garments, and gnashing of teeth followed, mostly about "our" jobs being sent "there." After someone insisted to me that we no longer manufacture chips in the U.S., I discovered that Intel (!) was building a $3B plant in Arizona, and Samsung was expanding its $2B plant in Texas. Took me maybe five minutes on Google, tops.

That explains the volume of well-researched and reasoned discourse here.

OLD FREEPERS DO.

In the last few years, a lot of people have joined just to disrupt.
