Do you think there are actual "paid posters" here? Or do you use that as a generic insult?

I see people calling each other bots and paid posters/protesters here all the time but do you really, honestly, full heartedly believe some people here are being paid actual money by some foreign govt, or political party, or mega donor (ie George Soros) to post anti-trump, or pro Putin, or whatever content here?

UPDATE- If you think they are being paid HOW MUC do you think they are being paid? Are we talking thousands of dollars a month or a few bucks here and there?

Hell yes, I do. Globalists dump huge amounts of money into influence and that includes all forms of social media. The Chinese are notorious for it.

God I hope some of the high volume dumbasses are.

To think that level of stupidity is festering organically out in the wild is depressing

IBChinaman must have been recalled to his home country. Has anyone seen him post lately?

Absolutely!

I helped run a local judge campaign before. There were paid people to monitor this message board and dispute any positive discussion about the other candidate that may have been generated here.

If it’s done for a local judge race in Prairieville , it’s done at a larger scale for national issues.

That absolutely happens but I'm not sure how many post here. We seem to have more people trying to pimp "influencer" accounts on X but they're probably paid by the "influencer", not a foreign govt.

I see so much mind-numbingly dumb stuff from random MAGA accounts I have to assume some are paid to shill.

There are also some people clearly spamming for their social media reputation.

Very likely. Propaganda is cheap and effective. The use of AI is making it even cheaper. This site reaches a lot of people.

I'm on another forum with a huge number of users (ar15.com). They have a very active "general" section.

In all the J6 stuff one of those members was arrested. Other "posters" were FBI agents that testified against him. So yes, there are government folks on these boards, yes you are being monitored, like it or not.

Probably. Think the ones trying to still trying to talk shite to the ones that “they” would likely agree with 90+% of the time if they really supported what they say they do. The constant needless agitation and stirring up of shite is a pretty big give away.

As someone who has been accused of this too many times, I very much doubt it.

Their "General" section sucks off LE so hard I'm surprised someone was stupid enough to talk about it on there.

On the plus side, if you want to know what cops really think of you and your status vs theirs, it's all there to see.

Absolutely. John Barron is proof of that. It’s just physically impossible to post like it does.

After the Cold War, a realization amongst our enemies was made, you’ll never be able to defeat or “take down” the US hegemony, by fighting us directly. The best way to take us down, is from chaos within. And you’re a fool if you don’t think Russia, China, and Iran aren’t heavily involved in these kinds of things. Technology is one hell of a thing and is very hard to “control”.
