Russian trolls.

How do you tell when you're dealing with a Russian troll?

by Anonymousreply 59April 23, 2018 6:18 PM

Lack of articles.

by Anonymousreply 1February 18, 2017 8:21 PM

They're sure the EU will break up tomorrow.

They love Trump.

They bash trans and muslims.

They're humorless.

by Anonymousreply 2February 18, 2017 8:23 PM

What about past tense verbs? There is at least one nauseating troll who makes grammatical mistakes such as, "I like to be abuse" or "did you took it?"

by Anonymousreply 3February 18, 2017 8:24 PM

If you unwrap one layer of them, there's a smaller more virulently trollish layer underneath.

by Anonymousreply 4February 18, 2017 8:28 PM

They often speak in gerunds, e.g., [italic]I am liking for swimming in the ocean.[/italic]

When they live east of Fairfax Ave.

by Anonymousreply 11February 18, 2017 9:33 PM

people that usually cite fake news websites or bring out Clinton as a way to combat any Trump critizism. But what usually gives them away is an insult directed at Russia Macedonia or Eastern Europe. That's when their true colors really come out.

Of course we also have the Deplorables and Bernie Bros that are anti-Liberal, misogynistic, racist, and ignorant. The Bernie Bros, Deplorables, and Russian Trolls are the Trifecta of the right.

Yeah, I was nonplussed to see a Twitter account supposedly of a 55+ artist-frau from Wisconsin reply to me when I tweeted to my political representative about media investigation of Paul Manafort. And a Wisconsin frau would care about Russia and Manafort because...?

[quote]And a Wisconsin frau would care about Russia and Manafort because...?

Exactly, especially the bad photoshop avatars and the overly patriotic rhetoric that sounds so ingenuine when they start defending Russia. lol It's so transparent.

[quote][R12] believes in all sorts of self-serving conspiracy theories, and yet he somehow pretends to believe Dick Cheney's 9/11 conspiracy theory, because doing so is good for the Jews.

Exhibit A. Look how how heated R13 got. Projecting on Dataloungers what he truly is and throwing at the wall whatever none sense he can spew. 9/11 conspiracies? wut?

by Anonymousreply 18February 19, 2017 12:54 AM

r18 well that and the Russian troll was being such a moron. "Oh I'm paid to defend/refute anything on Twitter, even if it's Norwegians, Danes, Bahamians, New Zealanders, Australians, Singaporeans, or Irish speaking poorly about Trump, Manafort, Putin, whatever. Yeah it doesn't make me look like an idiot to butt into a conversation between two people from Australia's New South Wales at all."

There threads smell like cheap Vodka

A lot of them type as if they are wearing a cheap babuska with their caftans...and this is the big one - no earrings

by Anonymousreply 20February 19, 2017 1:04 AM

They get hard for Putin's nipples

by Anonymousreply 21February 19, 2017 1:04 AM

They don't think my "Putin's pooting" fart jokes and puns are funny

by Anonymousreply 22February 19, 2017 1:05 AM

They are hilarious when they get mad. You can hear their accent when they rage post.

by Anonymousreply 23February 19, 2017 1:07 AM

They insist on pretending that Crimea never wanted to leave Russia and it was just a spontaneous uprising by the native Ukrainians. And they pretend that Moldova and Macedonia are real countries.

by Anonymousreply 24February 19, 2017 1:07 AM

I keep waiting for these cunts to pass me a good borscht recipe.

Or at least a HOLE shot of a Russian soldier.. but noooooo, they can't even bother to make themselves useful in that way!

by Anonymousreply 25February 19, 2017 1:10 AM

They get infuriated when you imply Boris Yeltsin and other Russian leaders were hopeless alcoholics. And they think a 12-Step Program is a drinking game.

by Anonymousreply 26February 19, 2017 1:12 AM

They age horribly - they look 20 to 30s older than their chronological ages - but they still insist the people mistake them for being "months younger" than their actual age.

by Anonymousreply 27February 19, 2017 1:14 AM

They get sentimental about their childhood vacations to Romania and Bulgaria.

by Anonymousreply 28February 19, 2017 1:16 AM

Freepers (staunch anti-Commies) immediately became Russian trolls after the election.

This kind of insanity ensures the death of the Left in the USA.

There's a troll inside a troll inside a troll.

They also have a better command of simple English.

by Anonymousreply 31February 19, 2017 1:22 AM

Well R29, it helps that Russia is no longer a communist country. American conservatives are rapidly becoming OK with a Putin-style autocracy as long as it promises to protect their "traditional" (implicitly straight/white) Christian values and keep out furriners. In fact, this is the state of Steve Bannon's dreams.

by Anonymousreply 32February 19, 2017 1:25 AM

Any reference to Jackie Kennedy or Michelle Obama causes them to wax eloquent about the timeless beauty and elegance of Viktoria Brezhnev and her many accomplishments:

"She alone pulled a plow for her family for many planting seasons until they could afford an ox!"

"She always smelled like fresh boiled cabbage, delicately seasoned with mustard and black pepper."

"She was always able to do her farm chores while she simultaneously pleased her husband sexually by letting him mount her from the rear - such a devoted wife."

1. Go to Alexa.com

2. Check out where DL ranks among the world's websites and among America's websites

3. Wonder aloud why Russian trolls would be interested in a site that gets so little traffic

4. Wonder aloud why Putin's People would think that gay men were ripe for converting to Deplorable-ism.

5. Visit one of the threads about Kortamacarena, Evans, Harold, Huddleston, Pace, etc.

6. Observe the preponderance of Google-translated posts

7. Realize how one might come to DL to post about Kortamacarena and then get distracted by a political thread.

8. Now you know who your "Russian" trolls are.

Kudos r36

Anyone claiming Russian trolls are prevalent on Datalounge is blocked.

Red baiting is not productive.

When a larger number of people believe the president more than they do the media, something is wrong. The fact that the president is TRUMP only proves the direness of the situation.

A politically amorphous region with 320M people controlled by bureaucrats in DC is ungovernable.

by Anonymousreply 41February 19, 2017 2:03 AM

Red baiting? It's not a Communist country anymore, Mr Political Genius at r41.

by Anonymousreply 42February 19, 2017 2:07 AM

R41

Quit being disingenuous. Redbaiting is metaphorical.

Do you honestly believe that half of America supports Russia as the new rulers of our country? If so, then God help you as your Socialist party becomes more and more irrelevant inside intelligent communities.

Don't know about Russian trolls, but a thread entitled The Left's Fetish with Islam was shut down and closed10 minutes after being created.
