    I’m really, really hoping a lot of folks see that comment. Online communities are rife with intelligence agents actively trying to sway online discourse.

    There’s a term in intelligence work for people who fight or support a cause they don’t fully understand: useful idiots. Anyone reading this, take a hard look at the facts of any situation. Do everything you can to cut down to the actual truth wherever possible. Make up your own mind. Don’t be a useful idiot.
