Idiot voters and trolling the Internet: Russia, social media giants and US elections : Comments

By Binoy Kampmark, published 15/11/2017

It soon becomes clear that Barry, and, in fact, the individuals he cites, consider the means of obtaining such material more significant than what it discloses.

Russian interference is both alive and well!

And evidenced in this patently pro Putin puppetry. By it's chief puppet? The evidence (Facebook, twitter) is accumulating and overwhelming!

I'd say, nice try, but it isn't! Just foul fatuous fulsome fiction!

And that's being both kind and unnecessarily polite!

Haha. Russia cops a lot of flak these days hey? Don't know if its cause they're rechristianizing their region at a rapid clip or if its cause the shapers are still butthurt with the collapse of communism or something.

The ABC whining about fake news, give me a break. Barry should look at the reporting of Trump, Turnbull discussion about manus illegals and then at the reported transcript. The filthy lying ABC were totally corrupt that time. Of course their filthy agenda has always been anti Australia.
Close ABC/SBS down!

There are none so stupid as the Trump haters. They will believe anything that can possibly show Trump in a bad light.

I find it even more ridiculous that there are any, other than criminals, who still support Clinton. There has been so much that has cone quietly to light of their wheeling & dealing, much of it totally illegal.

Of course we should not be surprised to find Clinton supporters know little of all this, like the three monkeys, with eyes shut & ears covered it is hard to find that which you don't want to believe.

It is of course beholden of those who want to commentate to make themselves aware of the full facts, before shooting their keyboards off.

Shame on you Binoy for not doing so.

Yes Has, there is a knowingly criminal element, as you contend, just with the eyes, ears and mouth covered alongside a pinched nose? What's that smell?

Without question these same folk don't bother with fact or evidence checking just go on endless asserting that the evidence for the crown just doesn't exist! And caused no doubt by a very severe, very contagious case of Sargent Schultz's syndrome!

Because, one would not only be wilfully blind, deaf and dumb but almost brain dead, to ignore the growing mountain of evidence, that Putin's puppets are engaged in the electronic delivery of quite massive and or fake information, and not aimed just at Hillary Clinton but various governments, the world over!

Yes, Clinton is no saint, but not found going about the place fondling the genitals of younger members of the opposite sex!

Sign! Where are all the female sexual predators when you want one? Furry boring.

Clinton's problem? Just too arrogant to see that the average mug is so over, business as usual politics and dividing the spoils of office before they're won!

And blind as a bat to all the growing discontent out there in mugsville!

Otherwise, Bernie Sanders would have been her running mate and she would have embraced most of his policy platform!

And then been able to clearly differentiate from those on the right!

Had she just used the brains she was born with, no amount of electronic warfare/campaign interference would have changed the outcome of the popular vote!

And should a democrat ever win office, would be well advised to conduct the poll over a weekend, when ordinary working folk ought to be better represented/able to vote!

And desirable, if only to cause the conservatives to lift their game and performance!

This Russia Russia Russia stuff has become a mass hallucinating media group think. The DNC put up the wrong candidate, because the Clinton Foundation controlled the DNC. The US electorate went with the candidate that challenged the status quo (even though he was mostly lying). Clinton WAS the status quo.

This whole Russia Russia Russia thing has emerged out of the monumental bungling of the DNC electoral campaign. Sanders would almost certainly have beaten Trump, but the DNC could never allow him to run against Trump - because Clinton was always their anointed president in waiting.

Who to blame? Why, of course! Let's revive the good old days of the Cold War, when McCarthy told us who our enemies were. Russia, Russia, Russia. Don't bother with evidence. Just keep those alphabet agencies reporting that they have the evidence, while never actually giving us the evidence.

Had Clinton won, Russia Russia Russia would never have happened

Hey Killarney,
I think all this Russia stuff started when Hillary obtained a FISA court warrant to spy on Paul Manafort with the pretext of 'surveillance regards collusion with a foreign government' but it was really all a ploy to spy on the Trump campaign prior to the election.

A lot of Hillary's crimes are 'colour of law' operations which means she hides all her crimes behind legitimate looking activities.

Say you have a laptop which you don't want anyone looking at.
Then you make sure you have some legitimate legal reason 'by law' that laptop can't be touched.
