How to spot trolls. They bunch up at the start of threads and do a "mob rules" type of tone: something that makes a real conservative feel uncomfortable.
They post endless articles that keep the site moving so quickly people who come here can't make connections with other conservatives.
IMHO these people are working together and they're being paid.
You don't think that's possible? Look what they've done in the past. They've sent fake letters to the editor (which I know for a fact) sent fake letters to our conservative representatives, (as a way to push them off track.) They've called Rush and Hannity and other conservatives saying "I've been a life long Republican and I voted for Bush, BUT ... and then proceed to trash all things conservative. (That's stopping now because Rush is on to them) These are coordinated acts. There nothing random about them starting or quickly ending.
I don't know who's paying FR trolls -- my first guess was the DNC. And that might have been true in the past - now, I believe it's the non-profits subsidized by powerful corrupt liberals. Powerful men with hunger for control - agendas way beyond the simple stories given to boys sitting at computers being paid to lie.
And a note to any troll reading this: If you are one of them, you need to know that people who pay you to lie to us, will also lie to you.
They've defined their morality. You're told the ends justifies the means - but your sweet, innocent ideas of "power to the unions" or "hate Walmart" or "stick it to the rich" or "end the war" or "more for the little guy" or "protection for every snail darter" or whatever they used to compromise you, is not, NOT, what they're after. Liberal fat cats are spending big money to stop conservative citizens from the right to assemble. And they're not doing it to protect your pet belief. You're a means to an end. And nothing more.
Anyone who knows of other ways to spot trolls, please add a comment....
I am against spamming threads, but I loved your post 4 and if there is one post that should be spammed it is this one.
Ask Jim Robinson if it is ok to do so and do it if it is ok.
