The need for validation made me break open the vault, lol. You asked for it:

    I know I’m going to get downvoted to hell for this, But without any commentary, I don’t know what the first link to ProRepublica proves that there is a tie between Trump and Russia.

    I was planning to send this to some of my sceptical friends, but if the first link contains hundreds of hours of random footage of an attempted insurrection, they will probably not be motivated enough to click the other links.

    I’m not saying it shouldn’t be included, but I think it matters which links you put in the top three spots because that’s going to determine whether people are convinced or not. I think the last two links probably might be better suited for being the first links.

    I agree with OP that you don’t want to argue after you dump the links, but then you have to make sure the links are really solid.

      I meant to choose a link for each topic you’re trying to prove, not send the entire list. You’re right though, if that’s what you’re doing. Feel free to copy and paste the links you think will help convince your friends.

      Thanks. I thought everyone knew this stuff, but then I realized that was up to 10 years ago that this all came out.

      Edit: This quote describes the way they operate here on Lemmy. It’s a smaller community. So if it feels like people are unnecessarily angry, this is why. You’re either an influencer or being influenced.

      “Once we isolate key people, we look for people we know are in their upstream – people that they read posts from, but who themselves are less influential. We then either start flame wars with bots to derail the conversations that are influencing influential people, or else send off specific tasks for sockpuppets (changing this wording of an idea here; cause an ideological split there; etc).”
