Case study: a Russian troll on RT pretending to be a British citizen

Username is: "BEST University 2017". The article titles are bolded. Notice how the troll at one point claims to be a British person, then says "our President Duterte", and also posts deeply anti-American posts with imperfect English grammar. Also notice the psychological aspect of the posts; they're quite emotional and extremely harsh. Lastly, his praise for Russia is clearly propagandistic.

No duck & cover: Hawaii prepares for North Korean missile attackEven as they concede the probability of a North...

Hawaii can simply declare independence. That is what Hawaii wants.

 State Dept. bans American travel to North Korea The Trump administration will ban US citizens...

North Korea has free education and it is a very peaceful country. Ideal for bicycle tourism and it has got very nice beaches too.

So now they want to stop people going to North Korea in case they realise it is better than the USA in many ways in actual fact ! 

So many nazis went to the USA and infiltrated the CIA that is a serious problem.

The only one disturbing Asia is the USA and their armada. North Korea did not invade The Philippines, it did not drop TWO atomic bombs on Japan. North Korea is peaceful just defending itself from USA aggression and hegemony in the region.

Sadly the UK regime of Theresa May is USA sponsored. She is a prostitute, just look at her holding hands with Trump and supporting the crazy war on Syria the USA and UK both need regime change right away!

Many of our American friends are delusional.

The Communist Chinese are helping the Philippines in so many ways by connecting The World for Peace with the belt and road initiative. It is very good for The Philippines shipping industry and will stop the USA being so arrogant.

Actually things are getting better. The USA is crumbling and it was the most despotic regime of all so look on the bright side.

Yes the USA must repay for all the damage caused. The bill is HUGE

Well said. We in the west are slaves to debt.

Actually workers in Russia have very nice centrally heated apartments and the Public Transport is good and the Education is free. Retirement is at 60 years old so it is very good in Russia.

Yeah, right, the USA bombs millions of people and is giving out lectures on human rights. It is not respected as it is a very guilty rogue state. The USA must stop being a pariah.

The USA is welcome to disarm and disband the rebellion, return the silly declaration of independence and return to be Great British America. That would be nice.

He has stopped the USA from attacking Korea, he has saved millions of lives, that makes our beloved President Duterte a VERY GOOD MAN !

‘I’ve seen America, it’s lousy’: Duterte vows never to visit USPhilippines President Rodrigo Duterte has fired...

Sadly the USA is dangerous and lousy, compared to the beautiful Philippine islands.

The Philippines is quite safe, nobody needs a gun. The Police are excellent and professional. The USA on the other hand is very dangerous.

Sadly they will be. If we British do not support their warmongering (and we do not) then they will have to pack it in and become peaceful. That is our hope. We love our American friends so we want them to stop being so violent.

Those are very good and intelligent people. The USA will be exporting nannies and gardeners now and we shall have respect.

Bad foreign policy like Nazi Germany, invading, bombing, destroying. It is not good to support that sort of thing. That is why I will not go to the USA as it is too violent.

The Philippines is a global country, a true World Leader.

God bless President Duterte and The Philippines.

Duterte is a good man. He will stop the USA making war. He is a very good man.

You are right. The USA has to stop sponsoring terrorists.

The problem with the USA is they got that wealth through wars and aggression. They could get away with it for a while but that time is over now, thankfully. Only with World Peace and International Friendship can the whole world be free.

Well said. Russia is now the world leader in Freedom, Free Education and a good life. The USA and UK have a lot to learn about real freedom.

Thank you. I am quite sure President Trump will return the declaration of independence to Her Majesty The Queen and say sorry for the rebellion in 1776. Only then can British America obtain real democracy by respecting other nations. We in the UK especially would welcome our American friends back into the UK and Commonwealth and we can lead a peaceful world together. Make Peace and be FREE !

Sadly the American people are not free. Their media tells lies and the jobs will not even pay the rent. There is more freedom in Russia in fact, these days.

Freedom and Liberty were not real when they were gained at the expense of others. Syrians deserve freedom and liberty and respect for their President Assad. The World deserves Peace. Only when the USA can grow up and admit mistakes can it talk about freedom and liberty.

The USA must face up to the mistakes it made in Iraq, Vietnam, Syria and say sorry. It has done so much harm. It must immediately disarm and spend that money on compensating the countries it has been bombing and lying about, like Syria. The people deserve the truth. That is fair. 

'Everything will collapse': German courts ‘overwhelmed’ by asylum seeker claimsThe number of cases filed by asylum seekers challenging...

Germany was always a slave regime of lies. The German people who are wise will become British and help wipe that Germany place off the map. Forget about Germany and speaking German. They started too many wars.

Germans can easily give up their nationality and become British. It is easy for them to migrate. We should support the refugees and welcome them. They did not ask to be bombed and have terrorists in Syria.

Actually the one good thing Merkel did was to invite the refugees. The refugees are helping Germany open up to the world.

The poor Germans need to stand up and boot out Angela Merkel and the fascist warmongering regime in Berlin. The migrants are helping German in so many ways. It is good to learn English, French and Arabic. Forget about German and Germany. It is 1945 in 2017. NOD!

You have to remember that GERMANY is profiting from the wars the migrants are fleeing from. The GERMAN regime is profiting from the EU. The German people ought to change their own regime. They will get what they deserve.

It is not funny the refugees are suffering while the evil Germans are profiting from war. The fascist Merkel and her corporations are truly despicable.

Only PEACE can help refugees and Germany is too busy making war. The GERMANS are the problem and the refugees are welcome.

The Germans need to say SORRY for starting TWO World Wars and destroying Europe with their fascist EU regime. Nobody feels sorry for the extremely arrogant and forgetful Germans who really have no excuse to keep blaming foreigners for everything.

The Germans ought to have thought about refugees BEFORE they started TWO World Wars and sponsored a fascist coup in Kiev !
