It's nearly a 100% lock that its false left wing propaganda.
Yes, and don't forget Democraticunderground, Dailykos, Huffington and 4chan.
BTW, it's as I've suspected for a very long time, the left absolutely love right-wing chain letters, and they actively prowl the net looking for them seeking them out for ridicule. Not just because left and right disagree on just about everything, but also because the left can use the fact something comes from a right wing "chain email" to make themselves look more truthful than they actually are. The left really wants republicans/conservatives to keep those chain letters coming and going, and I'd like them to stop.
This democraticunderground post proves the left troll conservative communities and listservs online and use any chain letter they can get to help their agenda of discrediting anyone who is on the non-left.
http://www.democraticunderground.com/1002572108Yes, they are looking for more.
And I think that article where they were boasting about not finding or getting left-wing chain letters is exactly that - boasting. "Look at us democrats! We don't spread chain letters so that means we don't lie like the right!"
Bull.
They do spread chain letters and they do lie. They just call their own chain letters "causes" "outreach" and "action alerts" and even "memes" but all memes are chain letters, in fact, all virals are. You're likely to get more of the "action alert" kind on pet related lists where animal welfare extremists have taken over and already seriously undermined pet ownership rights.
But the non-left needs to start beating the left at their own game - finding and exposing left-wing chain letters, and how I would just love to see more left-wing chain letters end up debunked not only on Politifact and Factcheck, but on all sites that debunk virals. Hoax-slayer, Truthorfiction, etc. It makes me sick seeing all the conservative-slanted chain emails that end up there, even if some are true or partly true.
