    the Russian Internet Research agency played and is still playing a smart game and stirring the divisiveness underpinning American politics

    Here are some of the memes that helped them do it

    Why is it political correctness forbids open criticism of the contents of holy books yet we get away with nonsense like this attempt to paint all muslims with the same brush? No wonder there are few moderate muslims.

    And of the recent terror attacks? Think Christchurch

    Terrorism is not truly faith based it is radicalisation that is the main issue and it is immaterial whether the person worships Jesus, Muhammad, Buddha or the Flying Spaghetti monster

    And probably 100x that many by violent leftists. Just look at the riots in Balitimore, Dallas, and Ferguson.
