"The batch of more than 3,000 Russian-bought ads that Facebook is preparing to turn over to Congress shows a deep understanding of social divides in American society, with some ads promoting African American rights groups, including Black Lives Matter, and others suggesting that these same groups pose a rising political threat, say people familiar with the covert influence campaign.
The Russian campaign — taking advantage of Facebook’s ability to send contrary messages to different groups of users based on their political and demographic characteristics — also sought to sow discord among religious groups. Other ads highlighted support for Democrat Hillary Clinton among Muslim women. These targeted messages, along with others that have surfaced in recent days, highlight the sophistication of an influence campaign slickly crafted to mimic and infiltrate U.S. political discourse while also seeking to heighten tensions between groups already wary of one another." Russian operatives used Facebook ads to exploit America’s racial and religious divisions - The Washington Post |

I actually thought, based on years ago contributions, that he was a real conservative who just got caught up in this Trump frenzy. Not so, it appears. He acts like an extremist troll...he posts like an extremist troll....he is lacking any credence like an extremist troll....he accuses everyone of every thing that is not in his camp like an extremist troll....he attacks the media, wth no credence like an extremist troll.....he is insulted when you call him out publicly like an extremist troll. Thus.....an extremist troll. No more breaks...even when confronted wit ABSOLUTE FACTS, he continues to attack with such a degree of ignorance, it is terrifying that one person, so uninformed, with such a closed mind, can actually come on this forum, or any place, and lecture others, and worse judge others simply because he is Rubicon. He has plagerized on here.....stolen entire thoughts from other websites, and he will deny it.....used a Russian site on a few occasions as a link, cited Alex Jones as a source for media lying. And once, although I accepted at that time his saying was a error...he actually plagerized a satire website. I accept his apology no more as he simply continues. The hearings yesterday were eye openers....people like Rubicon are allies with those who wish to divide us. |

He has even defended his lies, as if we need a President who does not tell the truth. I am slow, but I am getting it. It IS cultural more than political. I just have difficulty with people so filled with hate, and they lose touch with what is real. |
