Are we really as divided as we have been led to believe?

I read an article today about how Russian bot heavily influenced the negative social media reception to “The Last Jedi”

It’s fascinating how broadly the Russians are willing to reach to amplify that which divides us.

All the arguing over Dems vs Repubs recently... how much of it is being amplified by agents (not secret agents dummy!) that benefit from the chaos.

My advice to those that find themselves sucked into an irrational argument is to step back and ask yourself: are you accomplishing anything?

Once someone shows evidence of not discussing with sincerity, there’s no point in continuing to engage those folks.

Just something to consider.

We can only be divided if we cooperate.

Wait. What? @Mamapolo2016
Badly phrased. We can only be divided if we cooperate with those who would divide us. @JoeyFoxx

Ahhh. Yes. That makes more sense.

I think many don’t realize how easy it is to be insincere on the Internet.
@Mamapolo2016
It's easy to be insincere anywhere. Sincerity is the tough one, and it's so unfashionable.@JoeyFoxx
