Revealed: Trump-linked consultant tied to Facebook pages warning election will cause civil war
A militia-promoting father and son duo of fake news publishers and a Trump-connected social media consultant are linked to pages which promote the idea of an American civil war with material presented in a way that appears to be an effort to sidestep Facebooks fact-checking system.
Comments on their Facebook pages and other materials obtained by the Guardian show that some rank and file Donald Trump supporters are enthusiastically receiving the message that they should prepare for violence against their perceived political enemies in November.
The network is comprised of websites owned and operated by Dino Porrazzo Sr and Dino Porrazzo Jr, whose company, AFF Media, is headquartered in Pinon Hills in California. The pair have been running rightwing websites since at latest 2013, according to DNS website records.

If they could tie this directly to the Trump campaign it would make him guilty of sedition.

(4,533 posts)Several former top executives at online firms like Facebook, Twitter, scared me to death. They say that without any human decision algorithms at those firms have learned to maximize profits by creating belief in conspiracies. On their own artificial intelligence driven algorithms learned that belief in conspiracies increases profits. So they feed us information they have learned will increase our belief that the earth is flat, that Hillary has sex with children and then eats them, deep state, etc. There executives, high level executives, believe that process can lead to civil war, literally. Social Dilemma, in my opinion. If Facebook controls 109% of the information you see then it has a good chance of persuading you something absolutely insane. Watch it.
