Reply to comment by NoArtichokeLarry in Meta claims US military link to online propaganda campaign by steevo

Do you REALLY think FB found all of their accounts?

It’s the fucking boys. The same boys who convinced you to buy a big gulp and support the Iraq war for freedom.

Weird. I distinctly remember going to huge protests and the general public being split before the invasion, and then staunchly against it afterwards.

I don’t think you understand how botnets work. They generate engagement and activity for their posts by engaging with their peer bots in order to get into algorithms. Definitionally when you get a network you expose the whole one. So these bots interacting on such a small scale indicates they were testing something rather than actually deploying it as a mass campaign.

The Iraq war was popular because the public and media were out for blood and the government made a convenient lie lol. Not because the CIA got into your internet chat rooms.
