I see Trump trolls all over social media

they have been busy sowing disinformation about Biden's health, trolling Biden's facebook and twitter pages about him being a secret pedophile. Biden's youtube videos more dislikes than likes on most of them. This election is going to get ugly.

I post it all over when I see their comments and have seldom gotten a reply. Actually, it is usually crickets when I post a rebuttal, since they have nothing to come back with that won't sound batshit crazy and they know it.

Anyone who believes in Qanon, is falling for the same brainwashing techniques employed in Nazi Germany to dehumanize a large segment of the society and create division to confuse the populace into those who will kill others for being different. Qanon is simply a rebranding on the Protocols of the Elders of Zion. Qanon equals Nazis.

"A secret cabal is taking over the world. They kidnap children, slaughter, and eat them to gain power from their blood. They control high positions in government, banks, international finance, the news media, and the church. They want to disarm the police. They promote homosexuality and pedophilia. They plan to mongrelize the white race so it will lose its essential power.

Does this conspiracy theory sound familiar? It is. The same narrative has been repackaged by QAnon." The above is the premise for the Protocols of the Elders of Zion, the fake document that led to the rise of antisemitism in Germany and the rise of Nazism. https://www.justsecurity.org/72339/qanon-is-a-nazi-cult-rebranded/

You are being brainwashed by fascists who want to bring back Nazism and Nationalism and destroy the United States of America. To ignore history is doomed to repeat it. You are being lied to and led down a dark and evil path that leads to the death and destruction of your very soul.

I've alerted and blocked hundreds of Trump trolls and I definitely don't intend to stop. Twitter and Facebook both have rules about being abusive and harassing.

I don't give a shit what trolls are saying on "social media."

Good that you're concerned though.

Craigslist community, Twitter, Facebook, YouTube ...we should all be voting them down. It's been this way for 20 years. Republicans have an army of paid trolls???? It wouldn't be news.
