On sunday, David Hogg, the foul-mouthed anti-gun teen demagogue once dubbed the “king of the snowflakes” on Twitter, falsely claimed the viral movement to #WalkAway from the increasingly radical Democrat Party is “Russian propaganda,” citing a propaganda piece published by CNN.
And to make sure people got his message, he repeated it several times.
“#WalkAway is Russian propaganda,” he said six times in one tweet. “Remember this November we need to vote against @Russia,” he added.
#WalkAway is Russian propaganda #WalkAway is Russian propaganda #WalkAway is Russian propaganda #WalkAway is Russian propaganda #WalkAway is Russian propaganda #WalkAway is Russian propaganda
Remember this November we need to vote against @Russia https://t.co/okCKzzpzFG

Will this presidential election be the most important in American history?
Naturally, Hogg’s acolytes agreed, parroting his talking point, while others fired back.
I'm part of the walkaway movement, and it's very real!! I was a Democrat for 30 years and voted for Obama twice. Unfortunately the Democratic party has lost their way. Other than hating Trump the Democratic party has absolutely no platform. #walkaway

Some wondered what opposition to the #WalkAway movement has to do with gun control.

I'm part of the walkaway campaign and nobody is getting paid! That's a total lie! And it's sad the Democrats won't acknowledge the fact that people are leaving the party in droves and try to correct the problem but instead would just rather blame it on the Russians.

Then there were those who, like this Twitter user, claimed that the #WalkAway movement is fake and the Democrat Party is growing:
Nobody is walking away. If anything we are gaining in numbers. ???#BlueWaveComing2018

Keep saying that to yourself…
Hello David, you are one of the reasons this movement exists. You and your Leftist agenda which comes with intolerance, hatred, division and fear are having people to leave the Left because now it is not anymore about having discussions, being tolerant and respecting others.

Translation: Far-left radicals like David Hogg are incapable of providing a coherent argument for their policy positions, so they deflect by falsely claiming there is no opposition and any that might exist doesn’t really exist and is only the result of Russian propaganda.
Brandon Straka, the New York hairdresser who started the movement, would disagree, as well as the thousands of people who have turned their backs on the Democrat Party, which has openly embraced tyranny and socialism.
Let’s see how this strategy works for them in November…
