FCC Has Reportedly Been Using Dead People’s Social Media Accounts To Spread Propaganda

The Repeal of Net Neutrality: An idea so good, the FCC has to use dead people to endorse it.

Fake support from fake people? In America!? :shock:

I’m thinking that the Net Neutrality repeal is fake. :yes:

Wait, hang on, my Internet just slowed down so much that I couldn’t transmit this post. That’s odd, it’s never done that before?... :thinking
 
Am I missing something?

I read the article, and while it points to evidence that fake social media posts have been used, and several very powerful organizations (Verizon, Comcast, AT&T) wanted Net Neutrality repealed...where is the evidence it was the FCC sending the "fake posts?"

All I read is "it is reported," but by who? It does not say...in fact it says everything but who has reported evidence directly tying the FCC with the fake posts.

Isn't it more likely than not the "powerful internet organizations" who may know which customers have died and which can have control of those customer accounts might be the actual perpetrators?

I want to see the facts, not rumors, about who exactly is at fault.

The agency has, reportedly, been using dead people’s social media accounts to spread propaganda and shill for the repeal.

Hmmm....did any of these dead people vote for Trump? I guarantee you some dead people did.

I wonder what will be the new dragon to be feared and hated once Trump is gone in four to eight years?

Check your cracker boxes, Trump might be in there making them go stale.
Tighten your soda pop lids. Trump might be there loosening them to let all the fizz out.
Check your tire pressure. Trump may have snuck up in the night and let out some of the air.
Did that light bulb blow out? You just know Trump went in a put in a bad one in its place.

So we're not allowed to criticize the actions of the government? Keep that in mind when the next Democrat takes over. You are not allowed to say anything.

I think at this point everybody who voted for Washington is long dead. Considering all the "concern" about voter fraud on your side, it's worth pointing out.

"My side"?
My side is a Conservative Democrat.
An option not provided by the system.

I have lived under the rule of Democrats and Republicans and cussed them all.
So far, none of them have attempted to kick down my door because of something I said on an internet forum, in a bar, at the library, or in the park.
My hyperbole post #12 was about how extreme some take their blaming and hatred of ____________ (fill in the blank)

I must admit, so far, these Trump haters are the worst I have seen at any time before.
There were a lot of people that hated Obama, called him Obummer, and such, but these Trump haters are so over-the-top they are in another time zone.
I don't HATE any politician or President. I only HATE those I actually know and have given me reason to.

The same reason I do not fall in LOVE with some starlet body beautiful.
I only know them on the silver screen or the TV. In other words, I don't know them at all.

A healthy perspective on life, and what is real, is a good thing.
It is best to save your LOVE / HATE for people you actually know.

True. Maybe it was ALEC and not the FCC?

Well, if you're responding to someone, quote them. My post was criticism of the reported actions of the FCC, and taking a small swipe at the Trumpettes who were really concerned about dead people voting (not the ones who voted for Trump of course).

Wouldn't the people that followed the dead person, like their family, find it odd to get a message from their dead loved one?

This doesn't sound like a viable plan to get the message out.

I have to ask, what evidence is there the government is behind the postings? Its supporting a current government position, that doesn't mean the government is behind it. Just like a troll here espousing pro Obama crap a few years ago wasn't a government plant, I have a hard time believing this is without some proof beyond wild, crazy, bull**** conjecture.

That post you talked about was to the general population. Hence no quote.
Thank you, though.
I will ensure my posting clarity from now on.
I evidently was not clear on that one being generic.
It does not make it any less true though.
You can not truly HATE someone you have never met any more you can truly LOVE someone you only saw in the media, either.
It is best to save those strong emotions for those you can see, feel, touch, and smell.
That was my point.
Otherwise you are just tilting at windmills that don't care, and your emotions have no effect on them at all.
