Re: Russian Bots



you should be mistaken for a Russian Bot, if 90% of your social posts are set up to spread misinformation and divide people.

Funny, that's an awfully big "IF" don't you think?

And, what about when you say things such as: "Apparently RT and other organizations are messing with search results so that if you look up something, they will return results that make people even more skeptical of what the govt. telling people." (source)... why merely use RT as an example when we have Google, Facebook, much of our mainstream media, etc.???

You seem to believe that the information you choose to take in is all that there is in existence, when in reality, there's probably much more out there than either you or I can even begin to know about. At least I can say that I feel I have an open mind about it, but I'm not sure I can say the same about you, at least not just now.

MENLO PARK, CA—Giving his arms and legs a nice little stretch while reclining in his office chair Friday afternoon, Mark Zuckerberg, CEO of Facebook, confirmed that he had successfully completed another long day of deciding what people around the world should believe.

“We’ve got over two billion users now, so it’s never been more important to show them only what we want them to see, while throttling to death of all content that we don’t think they should be consuming for whatever reason,” the Facebook chief said. “My days are longer than ever.” - Mark Zuckerberg

Re: Russian Bots


 John Menadue

In this blog over many months and most recently in the last few days (Is war in the American DNA?), I have drawn attention to the risks we run in being ‘joined at the hip’ to a country that is almost always at war. The facts are not disputed. The US has never had a decade without war. Since its founding in 1776 the US has been at war 93% of the time. These wars have extended from its own hemisphere, to the Pacific, to Europe and most recently to the Middle East. The US has launched 201 out of 248 armed conflicts since the end of WWII. In recent decades most of these wars have been unsuccessful. The US maintains 700 military bases or sites around the world including in Australia. In our own region, mainly to contain China and North Korea, it has massive deployment of hardware and troops in Japan, the ROK and Guam.

The US has been extensively meddling in other countries’ affairs and elections for a century. It tried to change other countries’ governments 72 times during the cold war. Many foreign leaders were assassinated. In the piece reproduced in this blog (The fatal expense of US Imperialism)Professor Jeffrey Sachs said

‘The scale of US military operations is remarkable. … The US has a long history of using covert and overt means to overthrow governments deemed to be unfriendly to the US. … Historian John Coatsworth counts 41 cases of successful US-led regime change for an overage of one government overthrow by the US every 28 months for centuries”.

The overthrow or interference in foreign governments are diverse, including Honduras, Guatemala, Iran, Haiti, Congo, Indonesia, Japan, Vietnam, Chile, Iraq, Afghanistan and most recently, Syria.

And this interference continued with the undermining of the pro-Russian government in the Ukraine by the US-backed Maidan coup in 2014. Gorbachev and Regan agreed that in allowing the reunification of Germany, NATO would not extend eastwards. But with US encouragement, NATO has now provocatively extended right up to the borders of Russia. Not surprisingly Russia is resisting.

Despite all the evidence of wars and meddling in other countries’ affairs, the American Imperium continues without serious check or query in America or Australia.

I suggest there are several reasons why the American record of war and interference has not been challenged.

The first is what is often described as America’s “manifest destiny”; the God-given right to interfere in other countries’ affairs. This right is not given to others because many Americans see themselves as more virtuous and their system of government better than others.

Despite their assumed world role, many Americans have a limited understanding of other countries’ culture and life. Only 32% of Americans have passports. In the UK and Australia it is 70%. Before he became President, George Bush had only been overseas once. That was to visit Beijing where his father was the Ambassador.

Professor Tom Nichols reported in this blog (How America lost its faith in expertise, and why that matters) Public Policy Polling that revealed that 43% of Republicans and 55% of Democrats supported bombing a place called ‘Agrabah’ which turned out to be a fictional place in a cartoon. Only an ignorant people could presume that their country should bomb a city that did not exist! To this day 70% of registered Republicans doubt that Obama is an American citizen.

Re: Russian Bots


Yobbo, i pretty much agree with you about being in perpetual war. Is it human nature?

Right now, i fear Syria is a proxy war. I don't know what to think about Turkey. I guess the question is why is everyone so hell bent on committing acts of genocide on kurds.

Re: Russian Bots


birdcharm,

I stand by my statement. Do you still stand by the Alex Jones list you posted on your board showing the people you suspect Bill and Hillary made disappear over the decades?

why don't you post that gem again.

Re: Russian Bots


Since I've never been an Alex Jones fan, that would be impossible for me to do.

I guess you say that because you probably believe the DNC emails were hacked by Russia, but wonder about the circumstances surrounding Seth Rich somewhere in the back of your mind. It's okay to wonder, lots of people do.

Re: Russian Bots


I will go with Rich's parents views, they condemn conspiracy theories in the death of their son that includes the Clinton's and called it "exploitation," and the allegations by those as "disgusting sociopaths." They also wrote a cease and desist letter to FOX who retracted their statement with no apology to the parents. I don't wonder at all.
