Re: Wall Observer BTC/USD - Bitcoin price movement tracking & discussion
Now what made the biggest difference is facebook's algorithms that could be exploited by said trolls, targeting people more likely to vote a certain way to convince them to either vote Trump, or stay home.
So Russia could easily flip the election by spending like $100,000 on Facebook while both (R) and (D) campains can't do do shit with billion dollar budgets?
Interesting that "foreign interference" subject is completely gone now.
The moment it became clear that Biden won, they suddenly stopped accusing Putin of trying to hack the voting machines.
Oddly enough yes: I highly recommend reading "Trust me, I'm lying" by Ryan Holliday for an amazing analysis of just how these campaigns work. This was the guy who did the American Apparel ads that had the 14 year old half naked girls who weren't and the fake "controversy" that fueled them. Note this book came out years before Trump and his ilk.
It's not spending money in places, it's spending money in the right places.
