Whoo. I find Tulsi Gabbard incredibly sinister, Her support of Assad is disgusting, All the trolls tryng to boost her online, saying "Tulisi is antiwar! Why are you against antiwar, hypocrite?" Also, "I hate NATO and Putin is awesome." And US Republicans are INTO all sorts of Russian interference in US elections. Moscow Mitch McConnell refuses to to anything to protect US elections. Apparently "Moscow Mitch" is rattling him. We should keep it up. Let's ratchet it up. Let's not speak of them without the cutesy nasty names Trump, that piece of shit lowlife, gives to all his enemies. Christ, they are hiding a lot. Fuck Tulsi and fuck Mitch.

There's a FB group called LGBTQ+ for Tulsi, and I have a friend who liked it, and likes Tulsi. It's like a Glen Greenwald bubble, and no one should live there.

What bothers me the most about Tulsi Gabbard is the cultism that surrounds her. It's the same kind of rabid, destructive foaming at the mouth "Bernie Bots" fanaticism that I saw in 2016.

And I swear it's some of the same people.

Yeah, there's a lot of far-left and far-right trolls that regurgitate the usual talking-points about her record as a prosecutor to discredit her & they don't ever site any sources on her alleged corruption.

Ask anyone who isn't a troll (Russian or far-right winger) doesn't give a rat's piss about Tulsi Gabbard or even knows who she is. She'll drop out before September.

If Tulsi were actually running for president, she would have hired campaign staff and be setting up operations in Iowa and New Hampshire and trying in earnest to fund raise, etc. . . If her plan is to just stir shit up, she'd be doing exactly what she's doing.

Evan Hurst reads Daily Kos. How do I know? He lifted "Tucker Carlson's White Power Hour" from me. Either that or we think a lot alike.He's welcome to it. Heck, the only Dem who I despise as much as Tulsi is Bernie and with him it's entirely his fans who I don't like, not the man himself.

What a piece of disgusting, neoliberal propaganda trash. This is literally what yellow journalism looks like.

Considering she grew up in a literal cult it's not surprising. I often wonder how many of her most rabid followers are just the actual cult members themselves running multiple accounts.

It was amazing to see how much she was being pushed online during the 2016 election. She didn't seem to have that many real followers, but every time I was on Medium it was like, "HEY YOU! Here's a new nutty Caitlin Johnstone article!!!!!!"

Her feed was so in sync with Kremlin talking-points that I was legitimately surprised when she turned out to be a real person who actually lived in Australia.

Are you familiar with another Australian twitterer by the name of "Aimee Therese"? She pushes exactly the same "left is right, Trump and Putin are the best hope for socialists" lines and I have the same questions about who's been pushing her.

No, but I'm starting to wonder what's in the water down there.
