    The media has recently suggested it's OK to pay protesters. Just wondering if any of you have been paid or know someone who has.

    I've been a paid contributor @ a few media sharing sites.

    No protesting, but some political / social issue commentaries.

    You wouldn't consider yourself a 'plant' then?

    How do you go about getting on one of these propaganda-creation schemes? Sounds like an easy way to make money. Do people get by the post, by the word, by the number of total characters typed, or what...? Does the government consider them as "independent contractors" for tax purposes? Do they pay taxes at all?

    Not at all.

    Purely opinion pieces, with no pushed agenda.

    I'd say they get paid to repeat the latest rhetoric and spread the daily meme.

    So, it IS true that the radical Democrat Left is so filled with hate for Trump and all things Conservative that they engage in conspiracies to create hateful narratives and other "content" to sew dissension and distorted, manipulated information in internet forum sites!

    "Shareblue"... why am I not surprised...? Gee! You'll notice that there isn't a "SHAREDRED"!

    And these hyperlib creeps do it for MONEY! Right at the bottom of the website page it says,
    "Salary commensurate with experience."

    I have studied one of the great masters of the art of propaganda, Joseph Goebbels. Today's agit-proppers have it a lot easier... because they're dealing primarily with a bunch of dumbed-down Americans, many of whom are Millennials who never saw the inside of a schoolroom worthy of the name -- because there have scarcely been any of them that have taught anyone anything of any value for the past forty freaking years!

    Today, I suggest that anyone who wants to try to understand what's really happening in the United States should read Orwell's masterpiece, "1984", with special focus on the part that reveals, "The Theory and Practice of Oligarchical Collectivism".

    If anyone posting on any message board that I've been a member of is a paid poster, then it is obviously a minimum wage job. ;)

    That's what I'm thinking. Most interested in ones who repeat the party line, spread the same meme of the day, etc.

    If more people in this forum were paid for anything the did, there would be more people supporting tax cuts.

    Yes.

    $50k per day, just to irritate the Trumpled and skewer neo nazis.

    it's a thankless job but someone has to do it.

    The above statement is doublespeak. Putting out an opinion is pushing an agenda.

    :laughing: You obviously aren't doing very well at it either, since you liberals seem to be the aggravated bunch. :D Did you say 50K a day? That is even MORE funny!
