If I wanted to destroy American democracy, I'd unleash a bunch of bots and trolls to stir Americans into endless "OH MY GOD WHAT IF. . ." meltdowns.

I'd get people to spend all their time in absurd "what if" rabbit holes, spinning with outrage, wearing themselves out.

What a coincidence!

That's exactly the goal of Russian Active: to get people to lose confidence in democracy.

Because when enough people lose confidence in Democratic institutions, it's all over.

The problem with social media: People like to get "clicks" and "likes" . . .

Guess which will get more clicks and retweets;

-Trump will fix the election
-Biden has an edge in the polls

I suggest people are riled because news outlets and social media accounts want likes and retweets.

So without realizing it, they’re helping Don with his Big Con.

of course, right?
