@kevinrothrock this is a very disappointing attitude. I see you've argued about it with people already so I won't rehash those with you.
I know quite a few NAFO people that really don't fall into that category. I do not hide my identity, or troll, I know many other #NAFO that don't either.
As I said yesterday when you replied to my toot, I value dissenting views. Unfortunately, you approached what I said with the assumption I was nothing more than a troll and that did you a disservice.
@kevinrothrock I didn't take offense at all. I replied in an intelligent and respectful manner.
I think you have the wrong end of the stick with regard to NAFO, but that's your right.
"Bonking” Russian trolls is an interesting way to combat disinformation (the jury is still out on effectiveness). Harassing people for not being “PRO” enough is wrong -- I haven't seen NAFO incidents (not saying they don't exist), I have seen non-NAFO examples though.
@kevinrothrock honestly, I'm trying to be as respectful an un-combative as possible, while still sharing my view.
I value your content and your perspective. Let's leave it there shall we.
@vertis @kevinrothrock I'll give you credit, you tried.
His behaviour was confrontational and you tried to get your point across. Unfortunately he has his mind made up and doesn't want to listen.

Yes, I learned about NAFO from IAmTheWarax on twitter, who was someone I followed for years because he wrote with intelligence, compassion, and humor about military issues based on his experience as a tank gunner in Afghanistan.
I don't know how Kevin came to his opinion about NAFO, but what he sees does not resemble what I've seen.
Even Ukraine's Ministry of Defense has acknowledged NAFO's value as anti-propagandists.
