Russian troll farms now pushing Texas secession



From @JayInKyiv on Twitter, which a Nazi tried to rename X:
Every Russian troll farm effort I monitor has switched from sowing discord on Ukraine in US to pushing for civil war in the US.

Thousands of "Regular American Baseball Man" all pushing for Texas secession while GOP fully agrees.

Kremlin and GOP always on same side.


Russia saw a rift develop, and they immediately exploit it. Thanks, Greg. — Qutz

Creating hyper-emotional, hand-wringing, unlikely--to-ever-happen scenarios and pretending that to be the the most likely potential. And more than a handful of useful dupes are falling for it.

If Texas secedes, the State loses the panhandle to Oklahoma, El Paso and more to New Mexico and the USA will not defend the border when Mexico decides to reclaim north of the river lands.

Repube traitors don't give two fucks about settled law.

How well did "settled law" work with Roe v Wade?

Secession is a pipe dream. We should stop encouraging this nonsense and stop pretending that we don't already know that.

The radical right hates nothing more than being called an ally of the “kommanists” and “soshalists.”
