19. Another attempt at dodging from you after your bravura performance yesterday. It'll fare as well.

Read the whole article, which I had to excerpt severely to try to comply with DU's fair use rules.

It covers quite a few bases you did scattergun touch on during your rants. You did source your first screed from Reddit. It's one of the sites used in the campaign analysed. It's certainly not hard to find haters on Reddit, so it's fertile ground for campaigns such as those described.

The point of the article is how these memes spread from the kernel planted by the botnets, often propagated by well-meaning dupes who've had the right buttons pressed. If the cap fits ...

And here, yet again you're regurgitating the same supposed slams - "her friendships with MAGA people", "her documented high emissions from her vanity private jet use" yadayada, all responded to and rebutted multiple times (in the case of the flights, ably refuted by accurately citing what the article you referred to in your support actually said, not what you wished and claimed it said) by those who bothered to reply to you yesterday.

I think you have a handful of buyers here. Keep pumping if you must, but I think you'll find you're pumping mud.
