Bro fist!

The Glorious Leader of the east, Vladimir Putin, has allegedly put the full weight of his Kremlin troll squads behind the Trump campaign.

Such is the claim of conspiracy theorist Chris Zappone, who’s written a long piece on the topic for The Sydney Morning Herald.

Presumably there are undercover Russian agents posting dank memes on our very own forum.

Privyet, comrades.

The Sydney Morning Herald:

It’s no secret that Vladimir Putin and Donald Trump like each other. But what’s less known is how Russia is attempting to support Trump through social media, by helping galvanise and motivate extremists who in turn support the controversial Republican candidate.

A network of Russian-backed anti-Western websites are linked with American white supremacist, sovereign citizen, and conspiracy theory sites. Activists connected to those sites support the Trump campaign, often parroting Moscow’s criticism of the US, NATO and the general ills of Western society.

Yeah, that’s right – they linked to The Daily Stormer.

We KGB now.

There appears to be some kind of alignment across social media between these extremist groups in the West and the Russian groups,” said Peter Singer, US-based strategist at the New America Foundation. “The key is how much of it is fandom and shared interests (both support Trump, for example) and how much of it is direct inspiration and coordination.

Planners in Hillary’s war room questioning how Trump has got so much free publicity should take note of this pro-Trump tweeter’s description (who for the record doesn’t appear pro-Putin) of how to game the medium: “Social media has become a source of news in and of itself for the very lazy journalism industry over the last few years. They skim what other people find interesting, put it into 300-700 words or less of boilerplate, and boom, content. Hundreds of millions of people rely on Facebook’s trending column or their Twitter feeds for this kind of news, and some of that news itself is recursively drawn from those trend lists. Nothing has to even happen in the real world … for us to become newsworthy anymore. We just meme things into reality.

A /pol/ meme wizard at work meming things into reality

Trolls are pushing back against traditional media because we beat them at their own games. News media was always a Jew scam, packaging complex realities into small, easily digestible morsels for the stupid goyim. But we’re sending out signals that are even quicker, even punchier, more entertaining and more simple to understand.

How are you going to beat our 144 character tweets or image memes with your ad-filled TV garbage and long boring articles, Jews?

Not only do things not have to happen, items that go viral can have no traceable starting point either. Racist, threatening, anti-Semitic tweets violate Twitter’s terms of service and can be removed. But their memes and ideas and momentum live on well after the initial posts have been removed. So who cares when and were the ball got rolling?

For the US, as with other Western democracies, Russian efforts to raise the volume on extremist groups, supply them with arguments and encourage them to wade into the mainstream helps distort domestic political issues, creates false choices for voters and increases acrimony in an effort to “unpick” the fabric of political unity. Adding to the disorder is the fact that Western nations themselves are going through a period of real political and economic change in areas such as free trade and inequality.

How does it feel to get Jewed yourselves for once, you rat-faced subversives? What, you don’t like it when foreigners push memes that destabilize your Jew social order? Maybe you should have thought of that before you did it to us, uh?

I don’t know if Russia is really promoting “extremism” (whatever that means) in the west. This article has basically no proof. But it would make sense. It would certainly be in their interest to do so.

If Trump is elected, we will surely see a new era of cooperation between the two major powers. That is something the Jews fear, and will do anything to stop.

Cry all you want. This is happening
