        ever wonder if all the people calling everyone bots on social media are actually CIA bots? like were meant to believe these bots are influencing elections worldwide right? but also the CIA doesn’t use them because ?..they have so much honor and ethics? seems like they would have the best bots. Freakin nuclear powered superbots that can read your thoughts and predict what you’ll write next. Maybe the reason trump was so depressed at how poor and “low class” his lynch mob on jan 6th appeared to be, was because he was in communication with thousands of CIA bots pretending to be much wealthier. they all had pictures of boats and BMW’s, he expected a million orange man march for some reason, I wonder why…

      It’s a really effective strategy to stifle any serious debate on political issues. The tactic is rooted in tribalism and dehumanization of anybody who disagrees with the tribe narrative. Any information that doesn’t fit with the narrative being peddled can be safely discarded without any further investigation.

      What I find particularly amusing is that liberals tend to see themselves to be enlightened and open minded while sneering at conservatives who are dumb enough to fall for things like antivax conspiracies and qanon. Yet, liberals exhibit exactly the same behavior, the only difference is that their conspiracies are being amplified by western mainstream media.
