    Good stuff. It's almost like he read my NYT bestseller "The Smear" ;) (Only I write about astroturf as deployed by Dems, Repubs and corporations.) @LastWeekTonighthttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fmh4RdIwswE&app=desktop …

        Nancy Pelosi called the Tea Party AstroTurf in about 2010. But she was using projection, as Dems always busing crowds to demos. Unions also important component of Dem AstroTurf. Communist Party USA developed system of busing demonstrators in when they ran the anti war groups.

        The Right doesn’t have funding from Government Employee Union dues or Soros funded organizations. I’ve gone to hundreds of protests. Left sends bus loads of paid protestors with food, drinks, sound systems, printed signs & T-Shirts. Never seen same from Right.

        Someone should teach Astroturfing 101 at 2nd & 3rd tier school to level the playing field 😉

        Will he then go and apply this to the bought science of his vaccine episode, of 2016? How new shots are marketed, to the public, reeks of #astroturfing .

        Speaking of neocons/neolibs/corporations "The Smear" Organized against Alex Jones & assault on Free Speech with outright censorship & efforts to destroy him financially seemed to take "the Smear" to a nuclear level. Maybe I'm wrong, but on a scale of 1 to 10 I'm going with a 15.

        Loved “The Smear”, but that was a funny monologue.

        The Smear is a great book! And a good companion piece to Andrew's Righteous Indignation. Read them both. 🇺🇸
