I made a mistake at looking at AOL and Yahoo news forums about today's murder by an ICE agent.

Most of the posts I read on AOL blame her or defend ICE. I wanted to believe that many of these posts are trolls or bots from foreign entities who want to divide America. When I looked at Yahoo that was more on our side, but I also saw posts that were identical to some I had read of AOL. Still, either way, whether these are real MAGA posts or bots working to destroy America, it is very depressing.

1. I have to say

that I went ballistic tonight

Dear hubby wanted not to cook and I can never say that won’t work for me

So ..

(Background: we live in a rural red farming community with very few options … so a bar and grill 5 miles away takes my call in ToGo order)

So … I call in our food order and wait 15 minutes to go pick it up … hubby waits in the car while I go in to get the food …

There are a few of the regular folks in there … most of them are known to me (been here 30+ years) and one of them says hello, how are you …

Big mistake …

Cuz …

I look at them and say …

I am horrified … Renee Cooke was MURDERED by our government goons in Minnesota … and any of you who voted for Trump DID THIS

YOU NEED TO WAKE THE FUCK UP

I called each of them out by name (I know them all) and that sitting there denying what they had done wasn’t working for me

….


Anyway … I had at least a 10 minute rant … am certain they will have a few bad moments in their heads tonight

9. No courage really

Just am out of fucks …

We are going to put a 4x8 sign in our yard

Soo everyone will have to see it … I no longer care …

I am sick of this shit

I have driven past all of the Trump altars for years … they can drive past my truth, if I have to drive past their lies

2. You can't judge public opinion from online activity imho. nt

3. The paid bots were out in force

The talking points are out and the bots are spreading it like wild fire. Remember a large percentage of those posts aren't from real people, they're from bot farms.

5. Wonderful. Always happy to hear good people stand up and Blast!

Good for you!

6. AOL is and has always been MAGA heaven.

As a Black woman excited to find the internet way back when, my excitement quickly evaporated when I realized the dark power of anonymity.

7. I believe most people have had it with the overreach of this regime.

I think most of those positive posts are indeed bots from outside this country.
