  1. Hi Jake and others in this site, during the last six months, it has become increasingly apparent to me how easy it is to "allow the sales operator to "stick the toe of their boot in the door." An old door-to-door sales technique that has many newer versions and applications in this more recent age of technology. It is through the information that you and others offer, that I, and I hope other viewers and participants in these sites, become more aware of sly, snake-oil styles, techniques and tactics, that are used by various characters in the social media web space. I am slowly becoming more aware of the things that I do, such as continuing to engage and debate with such operators, in spite of the fact that I have been, albeit unknowingly, contributing weight to their cause and increasing their apparent and real public exposure. My education is developing, so that I get caught less often and consequently give away less and less of my time and resources, and therefore waste less of other people's time, by responding to these tricksters and hucsters. Some of the tactics are similar to what you describe, such as ----Offering information that is marginal and which, at first, seems inoffensive and relatively innocuous, even if just a tad challenging. In this way, the operator engages the hapless responder, {unfortunately, me at times} into what appears to be a logical debate, but which is in essence just a ploy to gain increased exposure through numbers on the algorithms. ----As you have described, another tactic is to appear to be "calling the responder out", either as a coward, or as being "unable or unwilling to provide facts" to support the responders own arguments, thereby sucking the responder into a carefully baited trap. ----An easy trick to fall for is when events are retold in ways that directly contradict or challenge information that has been reported in "western" media as being, in some way, incorrect. Obviously, in such situations, there can be no counter argument with regard to information offered by Russian media, because all such information is clearly in accordance with and does not deviate from Kremlin rules and direction. ----Another is to Invite a "thumbs down"👎from responders, by making a confrontational statement. I understand that even a "thumbs down" adds numbers to their algorithm rating. (please correct me if I am wrong on that) ----And when someone challenges you with a comment, such as "Dude… you really call “Z” a swastika…", that is totally irrelevant to or a false connection between statements made in the topic being discussed, or at the very least, not a true reflection of information offered, with the obvious desire to draw a response refuting the statement proferred. In these ways, the number of interactions, with each "thumbs up👍" , "thumbs down👎" or subscription recorded on their site/s increases, as a result of which, so does their exposure. Suggestion: It may be useful for others to offer information about the types of challenges they have seen, fallen for {such as I have described having done myself} or knowing of through other sources. Most of my computer experience has been on the hardware side and the last six months in the "interactive media space", particularly with regard to the Invasion by Russia and the continuing WAR waged by Russia against Ukraine, has been a steep learning curve for me. 🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦 VICTORY for UKRAINE 🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦
