Insulting me because you have no reasonable response?

My response was plenty reasonable given your unreasonable claim that somehow the most powerful country in the word with the most sophisticated media machine got "caught flat-footed" in the modern disinformation game. They were heavily astroturfing reddit as far back as 2013 and have probably been at it for longer: https://web.archive.org/web/20160604042751/http://www.redditblog.com/2013/05/get-ready-for-global-reddit-meetup-day.html

You know, unless you think the eglin air force base were just superfans of reddit. That's just reddit, now imagine more important platforms.

A sophisticated media machine that can't even hide the real location of it's shill accounts? And you're the one mocking me?

Some operations are more careful than others and I'm sure lessons have been learned since 2013. Meanwhile you think somehow China's and Russia's operations are more sophisticated because your media uncovers them?
