Report on how FireMcMaster spread, w/its faults (I'll come back to) shows hashtag came from far right, NOT RU. https://medium.com/@DFRLab/firemcmaster-explained-9e9018e507c2 …

Article does mention the most prolific tweeter of the hashtag is an employee of Sputnik.
-
That's not actually what it claims. And the claim it DOES make is thoroughly undermined by the entire rest of the article.
-
Second most prolific sorry
-
Where does it say that?
-
-
That disparity is really confusing at 0521 especially considering the sample is smaller for the higher number.
-
Here's the search, which is closer to, and maybe not even, 25. And that's not only problem w/Stranahan claims.

Does Alex jones get money from the mercers like breitbart does, or is he being a brownose trump shill for nothing
-
there has to be more to it. He has same coordinated talking points as breitbart/Cernovich/far right & has been offering $20k contests etc
-
Agree. There may well be. And it's worth checking out.
-
Roger stone is the most likely explanation but I don't know what big money he's connected to (I doubt he's footing the bill himself)

Mercer sympathizes with Bannon an his ilk over neocons. So it makes sense w/o any Russia angle
-
Bingo. And Mercer is spending more $$ on poisoning US public opinion than RU, as far as we know.

I think Russia helps to reinforce using its media and online resources etc. But yeah the source of most of these messages are American.
-
And the most impactful source, at that.
-
Yeah. The Russians skim the surface and agitate with already prevalent sources. Esp when it comes to alt right prop.

American assholes giving money to other American assholes is always a safe bet. Unbelievable this palace intrigue BS moves the needle in RU.
