Meta.
Moderately interesting items sometimes creep into my spam comment box, which I make a habit to rescue. These tend to be blocks of articles of conspiratorial nature, a healthy amount of propaganda from someone who is floating between “real person” and “autobot”, but one of them this time wasn’t quite that — it was surely a mass comment, but in limited scanning related to something else — some bouncing propaganda for Team Kucinich. Since I scan the boxes, and sometimes don’t even look at everything there, and they are comparatively rare, I have likely deleted one or two without knowing it.
I deleted two yesterday. I did not mean to, and had thought that I had reflagged them to the normal category for moderation. They floated admist about 200 spam comments, which were nuked away.
I do think I know how to attract one of these comments, or a type of comment that amounts to the same thing. It’s the Beetle-Juice tactic of saying the name three times.
Alex Jones. Alex Jones. Alex Jones.
There. Now I can expect some compilation of ramblings from infowars.com or something.
