I've never heard of axelturfing.....

..I googled it...it's not real clear.. but I get the gist of it.

So you think some interlopers are doing this deliberately?.....I wouldn't be surprised.

It’s real, and they’re all over FR. I don’t mean the majority of posters are, but they’re riddling it. When in doubt, check a few pages of their comments, and it becomes as clear as day.

Alexturffing from one who practiced it.

Here is a sample much more at the sight:

...”We pay people and organize people to go to all the online sites and “play the part of a clinton or mccain supporter who just switched our support for obama”

We do this to stifle your motivation and to destroy your confidence....”

There’s no doubt that they are doing this. Look at the stuff that happened with TeamSarah.com for a recent example. Since FR is the big dog in the conservative web, they’ve got a lot ‘em here.
