Most people assume that Charlottesville was mostly all Soros-funded. Because of confusion factors there, I would suggest at least a second major group existed, and had no connection to Soros. It would be amusing if someone dug into the various groups and came to a mystery group which led back to the Russians.

From Anonymous:

“Article about Russian online bots in social media inventing hoaxes, sowing distrust, and purposely inflaming both sides of an issue with intent to create confusion and excitement.

“The alleged Russian and Islamic State-sponsored psychological operations that targeted social media users in the U.S., including those related to Mizzou protests, are detailed by Prier in Strategic Studies Quarterly’s most recent issue, which flew under the radar until this week.”

“Now director of operations for the 20th Bomb Squadron, Prier had studied the social media habits of the Islamic State as part of his Air Force fellowship at Georgetown University.”

“In October 2016 he (Prier)“had to submit a topic” for his thesis, and thought his unofficial research into the disinformation campaign would be a good project, Prier told The Fix.

“That’s when his Air Force fellowship work of identifying the culprits began in earnest.”

“Priors thesis title:

“How Russia ‘hijacked’ the 2015 University of Missouri racial protests to spread misinformation” by The College Fix on Scribd.

“The thesis and an analysis of disinformation, or a handbook on how its done; article is located at:

“Shows an analysis of disinformation, or handbook on how it’s done.”

Thanks, anonymous.
