Based off his history he looks like an inverted Dick Morris with all the same personality traits that make them detestable regardless of their political leanings?

Hey remember when Dick Morris helped Bill Clinton win and declare the era of big government is over?

Also I'm guessing you actually are trying to Correct the Record lol

the only person i think even had remote chance of working for ctr was mitt romney and even thats a stretch

there was a lot of astroturfing elsewhere tho.

CTR's program was never a secret troll program. They spent the budget on "viral content."

people took the CTR news to instantly associate everybody who disagreed with them as being an Actual Corporate Shill

seems like a backfiring to me

Nobody accused Zegermans of being a CTR shill, they made fun of him for defending Abuela at all costs for free. I've never seen anyone on here actually accused of being a CTR shill except Mitt Romney and that was only after he immediately stopped posting after the convention.

it'd be funny if he was, but its more likely he just had a strong familial, work, or emotional connection to the hillary campaign and thought the election was 100% over when she won the primary. lol.

fwiw im the one who pointed out that he stopped posting on that exact day, and he engaged in the same way astroturfers are trained to do, but anyone with a narrow topic of discussion can often engage like that if they want to argue disingenuously

Parks and Rec is like the second biggest quality jump from the first few EPS to the rest of the series in any TV show I've watched, Community is #1.

I found the pilot episode of Rick & Morty to be very meh, but by episode 4 it was already taking off into the stratosphere.

Fishmech was supposed to be getting payments from Chafee's campaign, but they insisted on paying in something called "metric dollars" and they got into a three month argument about whether our already base-10 currency is in fact metric or not and that's why Chafee lost the primary.
