So you have already sent in a screenshot of this thread.

Contact your representative and encourage them to pass a bill outlawing politicians from buying internet troll armies.

It's ridiculous to me that this is allowed. Imagine if you and I were having a conversation in the park about the need for new playground equipment. And a by-stander paid by a local anti-park politician walks up and blasts a siren in our ears until we give up looking for a solution and go home. That's what CtR is. And frankly, organizations like it are only going to become more effective as they improve on their targeting tactics moving forward.

Their is no upside in paid political troll armies

Look at all the CTRs here getting so defensive. Poor Salmon is pissed that he's only been getting $150 a month.

You can usually tell who is legit and who is a shill.

First of all, the shill is always a leftist. Republicans are to cucktastic to fight fire with fire.

Second, they always show up during a debate, election, or some other critical event.

Third, they usually have an old username with a low post count.

Lastly, they almost always post some talking point or platitude, then vanish without defending what they posted.

Paypal doesn't issue a 1099 on anything less the $20K, so I'm guessing he pays no taxes.

It's impossible to know whether or not this is correct.

That's part of the problem. The anonymity of the internet does a lot of awesome things, but politicians are going to get far better at exploiting it if we don't reign in the tools they have.

This particular tool seems like a good place to start, being that its primary purpose is to hinder public discourse

And they are most always from Alabama or Arkansas because they are too lazy to change their flag. (Or they change from default Alabama to Arkie to make it appear as if they are a southern redneck that adored Crooked Hillary-Or they are pubs that adore cucks like Jeb! and McMuffin)

During the confederate flag bannings they had an absolute pay day on here posting as they are from Alabama.

Or they pose as GOPe cucks. It was reported on the internet that people were bragging on a leftist forum years ago...They fessed up to trolling Free Republic at just the right time; and having over the top sickening adoration for Sarah Palin or NO ONE! It worked in producing a schism from within.

They have gotten even smarter with a current troll Twitter account.

The news is reporting the same crap as this troll twitter acct.

I don't care who you are. Name anyone else that could survive attacks from all quarters as Trump has...

Soros just burns his money in massive 'bonfires of capital'; why on earth would he use it for nefarious purposes when he can just do that?
