It is pretty safe to say that I’ve never seen ANY ad on Facebook. Probably never will.
And yet I’ve managed to figure out who to vote for without Facebook’s help.
exactly what I was thinking
FakeNewsMSM and the Dems were and are the ones pushing racial division, as they try desperately to shore up what they consider is the most dependable part of the Dem base.
once people wake up, the Dems could find that base deserting them in droves.
Most of the ads were pro BLM. Dome were pro police. Little to do directly with the election and none supporting Trump. This is total BS.
Keep it up, Demonrats! The generic Congressional ballot tilts more our way every time you mention Russia or a porn actress.
“The black vote is essential to the survival of the democrat party.”
Yep, you got it.
Here’s the odd factor. Lets say Kanye West, Diamond and Silk, and other conservative blacks went to change the dynamics of black voting in the US (2020 election). Instead of this five to eight percent vote for Trump...what if they could convince one out of every three blacks to vote for Trump?
The whole formula for success for the Democrats would fall apart in one single election.
That’s something Hillary was worried about. That’s why she spent time campaigning in California instead of the swing states.
That’s been the communist M.O. since the 1920s. They ostensibly wanted to help black Americans, but were planting seeds of unrest and discord. It’s no surprise that this is still their tactic.
See “The Scottsboro Boys,” 1931.
Correct you are.
Also, with a new and dynamic economy due to Trump all be they black, white or other benefit.
Trump did not create this. Trump merely created an environment in which free enterprise will flourish, and we all benefit.
What about the Scottsboro boys? Are you saying they were guilty or something?
The hard core southern racists of that Jim Crow era (almost completely Democrats) were the best friends the USSR ever had. They should have been on the Soviet payroll for their behavior that repeatedly put America in a sorry light.
These were “released” by the DEMOCRATS ONLY on the committee. The GOP leadership — and DOJ — dispute that many of them were created by Russians — and the Chairman refused to release them. But of course the media is running with it as “FACT”
Sowing racism is a mainstay DNC strategy. So, what we have here is yet another clear signal. That, if Russia conspired with anyone - it most definiteky was the HilLIARy campaign
The communists provided councpsel for them and worked to create division in the US. Also read “The Communist” by Paul Kengor for history of Howe communists used black Americans to sow discord all th ewhile pretending to care for them. They used black Americans just like they use useful idiot Democrats.
A big “SO WHAT”? When was the last time you saw the mainstream media do any serious investigative reports on Soviet “disinformation” programs in the U.S., since, say, the 1980’s?
Waiting!!
If it weren’t for the pioneering work of Prof. Roy Godson and his team at Georgetown Un back in the 70’s/80’s, and that of Herb Romerstein and his team at the USIA/State Dept. and House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence,
(and S. Steven Powell’s masterpiece “Covert Cadre: about the Soviet infested Institute for Policy Studies” (1987), nobody would know anything about Soviet Disinformation and other types of anti-American propaganda operations both in the US and abroad.
See: “”Soviet Covert Action: The Forgery Offensive”, House permanent Select Committee on Intelligence”, 96th Congress, 2nd Session, Feb. 6, 19, 1980 AND
“Soviet Active Measures”, hearings, Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence, House of Representatives, 97t Congress, 2nd Session, 7/13-14/82.
The USIA also issued a series of similar reports in the 1980’s that are illustrated goldmines of Soviet disinformation operations.
Godson’s group put out a pioneering book on “Disinformation” as well as some smaller reports. Well worth reading.
Romerstein and Stanislav Levchenko, in their “The KGB Against the Main Enemy: How the Soviet Intelligence Service Operations Against the united States”, Lexington Books, D.C> Heath & Co., 1989, also delves into Soviet disinformation as far back as the 1930’s. Most interesting was the disinformationstatement of (later U.S. Senator) Alan Cranston of the Communist Party USA/NVKD infiltrated Office of War Information (OWI), about the Soviet assassination of Carlos Tresca, a former Italian communist who opposed them and the fascists. See pages 139-142.
There is so much more to read about real Soviet (now Russian) disinformation that I’m willing to bet the USA team never read 1% of the material available from the past.
While interesting, this article leaves me with the impression that less than 0.001 percent of Americans even read the “Facebook” materials or really gave a damn about them.
Looks like Moscow got another group of the American mainstream media into their “sucker” file. Fell for it Hook, Line and Sinker, they did.
Bfl
Same strategy as the Democrats.
There is a bell curve for all races. The bell curve for blacks may not line up with whites. Likewise for Asians (real Asians) or the "Asians" who are taking over Europe.
One main source of discord here is the identification of RINOs. There are others of course. The thing is, there are lots of Freepers with external influences, some even from the MSM who bring those influences here. That's not necessarily bad, an echo chamber would be worse because that would dull our critical thinking skills. It's much better in nearly all cases to get it out there and discuss it, and that will negate the influence of any potential Russian trolls.
So explain to me the difference between the Democrats and the Russians
FAcebook and that commie libtard Zuckerman allowed it.
