Interesting fellow over in the Republicans/Russia thread, who after three and a half years of lurking finally made his first post to tell us that Russia is not our enemy, NATO is obsolete and these are not the droids you’re looking for. Seems legit. ---

Yes, interesting indeed. He’s put a number of posts in the Republicans/Russia thread in the last 15 or 20 minutes. No further comment, really; but there’s some sort of agenda here, IMHO. ---

I have wondered if those two are connected. Not as in a sock, but getting their world view from the same source, perhaps just living in the same country. ---

New concern troll, anyone? Allow me to introduce: **CuckerTarlson** Their thread, **What would it take to increase the federal minimum wage?** (already locked), just screams “I’m a super passionate social justice warrior, so you should listen to me when I pivot and start talking about how progressive policies are bad, actually.” ---

Yeah - when I see something like that, I assume they are sitting behind their computer with a smug look on their face hoping beyond hope that someone will chime in with a “love your username, comrade!”, so they can revel in the delicious switcheroo they have all planned out. It’ll be JUST like that time they lectured their waitress about German economics and everyone in the restaurant stopped what they were doing so they could all applaud. ---

Well damn, looks like **tiggerbump** was a trock (or at least a sock). And I thought the thread in P&E was a pretty good discussion about the difference between liberals and progressives. But, if this really was a trock I support denying them the satisfaction of creating and watching a discussion, and my guess is that at some point they’d steer it toward something less productive, so I guess it’s for the best. I was in the middle of a reply when the thread went away too… ---

1st time poster starting a thread like that is almost always a troll or trock. A quick check verified such. ---
