Around the time Kamala Harris was taking over the reins of the Democratic presidential ticket, a mysterious group reportedly began a smear campaign against her, paying social media influencers tens of thousands of dollars to promote posts, according to reports.
In late July, a network of influencers who had been recruited to push conservative messages about Donald Trump or President Joe Biden throughout the summer, received an email requesting they make colorful sexual insults about Harris, according to Semafor.
In return, they would be paid tens of thousands of dollars via Zelle, a digital payments network.
“mystery group”
Oh yeah, a real head scratcher.
The Russophobia on this site is simply disgusting.
It’s one of the most powerful and free countries in the known universe and Lemmy should have more respect.
Did you miss this recent news?
e: or was that /s? Poe’s law broke my sarcasm detector years ago
Most powerful most free! Surely you can see how stupid you sound.
I don’t sound stupid.
If I am an American and I say that the US is the best country ever I would sound stupid. So yes, you sound stupid.
I said it’s one of the most powerful and free…
the military was shit on by a random farming country in the eastern european region, with literal fucking tractors.
they’re also know for randomly arresting people for political reasons.
im russophobic, not slavophobic. There’s a difference, thank you very much…
/s for shitpost obviously.
It’s not like the Russians are coming to our great country and eating our cats and dogs.
In Soviet Russia the pet eats you!
Nobody talks about the Russia dogs having nukes.
Nobody.
nope, but they did that during the second world war. Gotta love rationing.
maybe if their leader(s) hadn’t spent 20+ years attempting to subvert global democracy and sow seeds of radical, racist violence across the internet we’d feel a touch different…
Oh my god who could it be I have literally no idea
Nobody could ever possibly guess who it is.
