https://politics.slashdot.org/story...nia-launch-fake-pro-trump-sites-to-earn-money
Earlier this year they experimented with fake sites supporting Bernie Sanders, "but nothing performed as well on Facebook as Trump content," according to the 16-year-old who operates BVANews.com. The largest Macedonian sites now have hundreds of thousands of followers on Facebook, and sources close to one site say it earns $5,000 per month
Just an example of "appeal to emotion". Reminds me of the fake "pro-tattoo mothers" & "anti-tattoo mothers" Facebook groups made simply for traffic & profit.
