These bogus emails are akin to Communist agitprop.

Agitprop stood for “agitation” and “propaganda.” The idea is to continually stoke fear and hatred in your target populace.

You whip up the right-wing base with stories of hippies abusing troops, etc., and then identify the hippies with the Democrats in an oblique or direct way.

Pretty simple and obvious.
