    This push to demonize the strawman protest voters is an ongoing propaganda campaign to cause poor people to infight.

    This is a real propaganda campaign

      Only speculation, but I believe you are right. This only started 2 days ago after Trump’s Gaza comments. It’s disheartening how easily it is to sway online discourse. Jokes on them, this only motivates me.

        It’s also possible to run thousands of parallel chatbots to atroturf sentiment these days.

        They will even scour the internet automatically to insert themselves into any slightly relevant conversation
