Have you noticed how easily the left get the rest of us and especially the right to read tweets or watch a short video of a left-wing politician or indeed any Schwab type person?
They open a few twitter and discus sock puppet accounts under different names.
When Starmer, Lammy or whoever make a tweet they make a pithy `right wing` generic reply immediately underneath. They screen shoot the original tweet and their reply and then post that screen shot and reply on here or GF or any/all of the Right wing sites, where it is read or watched. The post is given credence by the inclusion of the pithy reply. `Have a look at this moron and what I say about him` is the implication and invites you to think that the poster is one of us, except it is a con.
We think the sock puppet is one of us ripping the piss out of Starmer or whoever, but he is not. He is an activist working his nuts off getting the right-wing to read Starmer`s talking points, listen to 3 minutes of him on video, see a MEME, when we would never ordinarily do. We even like comment on them here, and thumbs up the earthy comments of how daft Starmer is is.
I don’t know how many on the right follow Starmer, Labour, Biden, Schwab et al, but I bet the vast majority of us do not. We get most of our political info from sites like this, right wing posters on twitter, and News GB maybe. On here it’s all in one convenient little post, a 90 second bit of an interview that contains 1 talking point. Getting the right-wing to read or listen is the bullseye.
A reverse of this tactic is also used: A post from, say Trump or Farage is screen shot along with a list or montage of derogatory responses with a caption like: `look what these tossers have to say` thus inviting you to click on 10 sites/twitter containing Gorgeous Gorge, Femi etc. You are clicking on leftist sites and at least reading what they have said. Again the crafty sock puppet is getting the left`s message to the right-wing. He is making you take cognisance of Femi for fucks sake. You are reading what Femi thinks about Farage and have given him a click in doing so.
Not all of these type of posts are made by the left. Right wing posters on here also post stuff from Starmer etc. but they are actually ripping the piss out of him. The left don’t care about this as Starmer is still being posted about on a right wing site, likely discussed, and hopefully reposted. Saves them from having to do the work.
The left have been doing this for years and so have the seventy seventh. The sock puppets have thus been about for years in some cases and are now accepted in right-wing twitter accounts, blogs and news sites comments sections. These people have got the right-wing to read and watch every left-wing nut job on the planet when they would never do so voluntarily. You may never agree with the left, but their position and thoughts are being seen and heard by you despite you never seeking it out.
