I did not take part too much in the political stuff and pretty much at one point was openly against it on ST. That is when I started What did you climb today as a way to see more climbing content. I would occasionally take a look here or there, but came to accept that was just the way ST was gonna be. Wouldn't it be funny if they were Russian trolls? Maybe Chris Mac should get credit for pretty much shutting it down. Maybe facebook should take note and give him a better job.

I would laugh but would it be funny?
I bet if someone had the inclination and knew a few things they could see how many people that regularly participate in political threads and only political threads are anonymous posters.
I would bet that the number is small.
I also think we are a small enough demographic that it wouldn't be worth it for the Russians and we are probably commie enough for them anyway.

Since I, on occasion, sigh, followed some of the ST political threads, it wasn't difficult for me to notice what I believed to be an occasional outsider during 2016. I think I referred to a couple as "spambots."
Were they Russians? That's hard to say, but they demonstrated a low cultural awareness.
I don't believe they influenced many haters here, but they tried. I do not remember any names.

Anyone with a semblance of insight will notice that El Chapo was never denigrated in the ST political threads. Similarly Arellano Felix received kid gloves treatment.
Draw your own conclusions.
Bobby Fischer, on the other hand, was trolled (some say to death) by the Ruskiis.
It was stifled for years, but here is the group photo of the A-F from one of those "funny" get_togethers up at The Yosemite National Park.
Kinda makes that 1977 Airplane affair look like chump change, eh Licky.

Nah, we can do bad all by ourselves. Oh wait, I am a Russian troll!
Creating an information weapon based on the mental weaknesses of supertopo posters and all of the other publicly available information about us and every other online forum on the internet? Nah, that stuff’s just science fiction. Just ask my buddy Mark Z. And check who our president is.

A lonely voice calls out for justice, from the wilderness.
-Al Choppo, formerly Bozo
Unconfirmed Information from Cabo sources say there were three sicarios dressed as clowns and that they were allowed exit through a "private "exclusive" entrance reserved for high profile people" The get away vehicle was a white truck parked at the exclusive exit.
And to think, I always thought every post was a turle. So happy together.

I’m gonna post stuff I don’t believe just to confuse them. They’ll never figure it out! My mental flawlessness wll break their information weapon algorithms. Like Trump charging into a school and taking out the bad guy! I can hardly wait.

All those lies that got Trump elected. And all the lies that keep coming out of his administration. That can’t be right. Right?
We’ll be back to our old comfy information reality where everything makes sense. Any day now.
Oh hey his approval rating just ticked up to 40%! Yep, just around the corner up ahead.
