    It FLABBERGASTS me that people get on internet forums knowing anyone could be from anywhere and have ulterior motives and not run everything thru the very basic filter of “qui bono”, which is latin for Who benefits? The double tap is “Follow the money.”

    If the opinions put across lead to a conclusion that politically oppositional countries would find beneficial…guess what…you’re talking to someone on their payroll. Or worse, you’re talking to useful idiot doing the job for free.

    I’ve called out hundreds of shills over the past few years. Hundreds. The only rational way to look at opinions online is askance.

    There’s a new word for you, it’s personally my favorite, so remember it, use it, love it, spread it, and apply it to the internet. And tell others to do so as well.
