Damn, I wish I could remember that example of astro-turfing I ran into in the last week (or so), because I don't think it was from the left.And J. Edgar Hoover believed that people were paid to protest, the vietnam war, at least. I don't know if that was new to him, or if he'd thought that about HUAC protests, and whatever was annoying him in the 30s... God bless J. Edgar. He seems nice.

Can someone meme a "with votes" on that? Or a separate "with votes" to post below things like that?

Don't forget the deceptive editing! Or is that now alternative editing?

Pretty evil. At my workplace we joined up in a coffee club. Someone bought the coffee maker, ostensibly because he would otherwise buy so much that he'd spend the price of several coffee makers over th course of a year. So, he's evil? I have such trouble understanding this stuff.

Would these be the same people who deny that the supporters at Trump's announcement of his candidancy were paid $50 to wear a Trump t-shirt and applaud him as he descended the golden escalator?

I was talking to one of these idiots yesterday. He swore he'd seen the ads, I told him he was lying. He said people were being paid, I said he was lying. Never once did he offer any proof.

After me proving he was lying a few times he decided the best thing to do was tell me I was fat and ugly(another obvious lie. :-)), and block me.

He sure told me!!
