Like Substar

I don't disagree. They shouldn't have the right to mandate that. But they did.
So your options are limited

@taekahn I would consider it a waste of time, sign the attendance list (if theres one) and go home

Or Wargaming

I would probably do the same. Or just read.

I never knew social media could supress votes

<:TimThink:482277772497125378>

They can discourage or confuse voters

Idk i fail to see the problem

Which is what happened

Ok I see how they did

Everyone can do that cat

Like when i have jury duty

But yeah lol

I use the time to catch up on my reading

I can "confuse" the voters

I'm on jury duty currently

Like whole 20 century is history of propaganda

But zutt, if a foreign government puts forth a concerted effort to manipulate our elections, that's a major concern

Idk why its problem now

Not really. I assume russia and china are attacking us 24/7/365

Yah and you think we didnt do it back ??

There is anti putin online campaign as well you know ?

Didn't they look through the ads already and find pro Hillary ones as well?

How do you even stop that ?

I was under the impression that they were predominantly partisan and divisive

One day at a time, sherif. One day at a time.

@byathy think of the people that buy a garbage burger because they saw an ad on tv. Makes no sense to you maybe but they wouldn't be buying those ads if they didn't work

Its complicated tbh

I don't beleive ads effect people like that

I've never seen someone watch a coke commercial and decide to drink a coke becuase of it

Sure i dont disagree other govs are using propaganda

Yeah I realized

if people want a coke, they drink a coke. end of story.

I just dont see how to stop it on soc media

I'll say this though. I don't worry about other governments trying to alter votes because I EXPECT them to. I'd worry more if they didn't try because going down that road is scary as fuck

Without going full authoritarian

I didn't rush out and buy cup noodles because of the cup noodle quest in ff15

Ads spread awareness of a thing. The idea is you get you to think of their product before that of the competition. It's not going to compel you to buy shit though

all governments should be trying to alter the voting patterns of other nations toward their own interests. If they aren't trying to do so that means that they already got what they want

The other part is the label
