Wow. So scary. They try to influence every election. Thank goodness we have the Senate to investigate something that has been happening since the USSR.
I drank beer. I like beer. I still like beer. ... Do you like beer Senator?

This is about 2016, with an eye on continuing activity running up to 2020. The report confirms (and expands) on findings of the intelligence community.
Read the damn report before spewing, please.

Wow. So scary. They try to influence every election. Thank goodness we have the Senate to investigate something that has been happening since the USSR.
And in 2016 they finally found a candidate who wanted their help
Thats a lot of reading, I'll be watching for Aaron Mate's analysis, he got an Izzy for his reporting on RussiaGate. From what I've seen of him so far Russian troll farms were producing click bait with a majority coming after the election and was unrelated.
B.S. The Left is the enemy. They are the socialists. They divided this country. They are starting a war. They are fake news. They got you on this Russia bull****. And you KNOW it's bull****.

So it's official. You refuse to even view the evidence, a report by the Senate Intelligence Committee, chaired by a respected Richard Burr (R-NC). This is a our country - both parties - under seige from Moscow, but you're so brainwashed, all you can do is squawk about the Left. You are no patriot; you are a Fake American.
Morons not believing facts that Russian are attempting influencing our elections. Kidiot.
Maybe he'll change his tune when they start supporting the other side. Then we'll hear him howl.
It's almost as if all his overconfident, absolutist assertions were spoonfed to him by a trusted website or subreddit. Sheeple

They got you on this Russia bull****. And you KNOW it's bull****.
I figured you for that. Not many people here care though. Dumb as a rock.
Gee...
The evidence is clear and obvious
Democrats and Republicans actually agree on something... that Russia did try to influence our elections...
Yet you still call it all BS and think that people that agree with ACTUAL PROVEN FACTS are dumb as a rock
2. This whole line of inquiry is an embarrassing chimera and should be abandoned. Leaving aside the broader question of how low-rent Russian spook hirelings are better at persuading Americans than other Americans are--and how that should concern us, if true--consider the numbers.
10.4 million tweets total over two years sounds like a lot, but cursory searching indicates that there are probably about 6k tweets per second, adding up to two hundred billion per year. Assuming roughly five million tweets in one year, this means that, uh, a little under three thousandths of a percent of Twitter activity may have been due to malign troll influence. Bearing in mind that Twitter users are younger and therefore significantly more liberal on average than the general population, this is an utterly insignificant amount of output even if all of it was uncommonly persuasive (for wads of a few characters [possibly with video or image attachments] vomited by ESL users onto a medium famous for creating vicious online slapfights and dogpiles).
Russians made 116K Instagram posts over two years? Instagram does around a hundred million a day. You can do the math on that one. Having a slightly harder time digging up FB stats and there's a limit to how much effort I'm willing to invest in this silliness. Hopefully you get the point. I'll let somebody else dig up the number of pro-Hillary tweets and such, if they feel like it.
3. The only feasible way to stop the free flow of information on the internet is to adopt the Chinese model. Let's not.
