    Lol nah, just Russian bots acting like Americans. “Biden is too old, we need anybody else in order to beat Trump!”, “Kamala is too black/isn’t manly enough/isn’t black enough/is too womanly to beat Trump!”

    Or maybe they’ll push the angle that “<candidate> was pushed down our throats by the political elite so vote third party/Trump to teach them a lesson!”

        Sure, some of them are just galaxy brain cynics whose only political participation is actively sabotaging democratic outreach efforts because they like the way their farts smell.

        There is a difference between being critical when it is warranted, and doing literally nothing besides that.

          What’s better? Smelling you own farts, or drinking the Kool-aid that the US has a functioning democracy?

          Any propaganda in favor of the DMC which tries to sell them as anything but the lesser evil is just insulting your intelligence.

        The non-bots criticizing the DMC are helping usher in fascism and they know it.

            If the only alternative is a fascist president and the election is a popularity contest, then we need to win the popularity contest and we can squabble afterward. THis is something repugnicans do so much better than us, rally behind, and we really need to do that right now. En masse

        We can’t verify anyone’s identity online to see if they are russian trolls due to the anonymising nature of the Internet so we instead have a look at their content and user history and make a decision based on that

        Usually trolls act like trolls

          Right, and the important distinction is that’s all they do. They go into political communities and agitate. They don’t talk about dogs or games or ways they are opposing Trump. Pretty much all they do is attack Democrats.

          Maybe it was never tricky to rock a rhyme.
