Thank you to "A Simple Man"

 I was wrong and you were right. Thank you for your contribution here. This is not about pushing an agenda but about getting to the facts. 

Again, thank you.

    Not a problem. I genuinely think that there are better uses for your time (because the adage of "don't feed the trolls" is always applicable), but at least this puts your motives into a better light.

    God bless, and may the Peace of Christ be with you.

Troll Watch for 4 April 2022

Today's Troll Watch includes specific IP addresses that have sent traffic to and from Free Republic this past week.  It's a huge amount of data that gets captured so it's a bit of a challenge to sort it all out and identify it but I've managed to identify the following IP addresses and they are absolutely from the Russian Federation .  Memo to the trolls: I'm watching you . 😈 5.178.86*77 194.190.76*41 194.190.76*44 94.100.180*197 213.180.204*90 141.101.196*233 151.236.127*145 37.18.24*16 Caution to anyone trying to play with these IP addresses is that they may also host malware or other active defenses that can harm or compromise your computers. Thus I have replaced one of the octet markers with an asterisk to prevent casual or accidental connection to these IP addresses.  That is all.

A conversation with a probable troll

 Yesterday I had a surprise interaction on Free Republic that was a textbook match for some of the patterns that I'd identified in my blog post from March 10, 2022.  I thought I'd share the analysis I posted on that discussion. (Reformatted here for clarity) ____________________________________ To:  JimSp; Jane Long; AdmSmith JimSp, Thanks for playing and at Jane’s request I’m going to dissect what you’ve done here. Let’s start with my post that you initially responded to: >To: Navy Patriot >Good. Now we need to sanction every last one of Putin’s blood relatives and every last one of his friends. > >Take their money, take their yachts, take their mansions, sell it all and hand it to the Ukrainians as reparations. > >9 posted on 4/6/2022, 10:12:49 AM by MercyFlush (I don’t  follow the science. I follow the money. ) So here I am applauding the sanctions and nowhere in this post am I discussing the legalities of the sanctions. But I am definitely suppo...

The Tropes of the Russian Troll Wars

 Ever since the Russian War to conquer Ukraine started in February the trolls have employed a variety of tropes to forward their various narratives on Free Republic.  Neocon remains one of their favored tropes and they throw this one around like a crazed monkey throws shit at the zoo. Everyone is a neocon who doesn't support Russia's war of conquest in Ukraine.  What's truly entertaining is when they throw this at each other .  Nazi is still a popular trope although the impact of it has been lost since it's been so overused.  You should go fight for Ukraine is a recurring trope and I've found the best way to answer it is with Why don't you go fight for Russia? The pathetic little worms conspicuously run away and hide when confronted on this one.  What if Russia or China puts nukes into Canada or Mexico? is still showing up quite frequently. It's a pointless argument because neither Canada or Mexico is particularly in love with China or especially Russia...
