Here are some things I collected from trump’s first term. There are a lot more recent ones too, just put in Russian alt-right propaganda in the search:
- Astroturfing Information Megathread- revision 8 (old-reddit link)
- Link within previous thread and archived- "Once we isolate key people, we look for people we know are in their upstream – people that they read posts from, but who themselves are less influential. We then either start flame wars with bots to derail the conversations that are influencing influential people, or else send off specific tasks for sockpuppets (changing this wording of an idea here; cause an ideological split there; etc)."

Looks like some are stuck there for awhile too.
On Sunday, the French embassy in the UAE reiterated to its nationals in the country that it was not possible to leave because Emirati airspace remained closed until further notice.
It urged French citizens there to “strictly follow the safety instructions: stay at home (and) keep away from windows, doors and open areas”.

I’m not comforting anyone, this is reality. How many Magas show up here? They can’t talk to us because they get their asses handed to them. The bot to maga ratio also doesn’t lend itself to helping them out. If you’re talking truth social? Then yeah, maybe it’s 80% real people.

I have to keep saying this, and I apologize for the repetitiveness, but Republicans can stop all of this at any time. They can fire him, reign him in, anything to stop this.
- Comment on Epstein details scrubbed from Peter Mandelson’s Wikipedia page by shady paid editor 3 days ago:
As we described, it’s difficult to introduce clear falsehoods or remove references to reliable sources on Wikipedia thanks to its community of volunteers. This is especially true for pages that attract a lot of attention, as Mandelson’s page would have at the time.
As such, the attempt to edit out Mandelson’s suggestion that Epstein’s first conviction was wrongful ultimately failed.
After the account was blocked, it appealed the administrators’ decision, according to Wikipedia’s public records. The user said they were not editing in return for compensation, and that they were simply a “news junkie” who would never undermine the terms of use of Wikipedia. That appeal was denied based on administrators’ investigation and the user declined to appeal again. Another account editing many of the same pages was also blocked for undisclosed paid editing.
- Comment on "Cancel ChatGPT" movement goes mainstream after OpenAI closes deal with U.S. Department of War — as Anthropic refuses to surveil American citizens 3 days ago:
After Anthropic refused flat out to agree to apply Claude AI to autonomous weapons and mass surveillance of American citizens, OpenAI jumps right into bed with the United States Department of War.
I think people are a little bit missing the important bit. This government wants to send out autonomous weapons along with mass surveillance. They’ll just murder anyone they want, if the AI gets it right in the first place.
Here we are in Running Man and no one sees it coming. This is why Stephen King is so against this administration. He predicted it.

Why are you against complaints? They are what most people who are super busy (voters) tend to only read. If they’re bad or misleading, then most of our voters have bad information or are mislead.

and monetize it
Have you used TikTok? If you had in the beginning, it was full of people doing history videos, diy, etc. I suspect it will be something like that. I don’t use it anymore, but it was great in the beginning,.I suspect that if you’re on Loops, especially at first, monetizing it isn’t your first thing. The meme communities are probably going to go nuts.

That’s misleading, they plan on being open sourced according to pubs:
Similar to how Mastodon offers an open source, distributed version of X, the fediverse is getting its own TikTok competitor. This week, an app called Loops began accepting signups on its new platform for sharing short, looping videos. Still in the early stages, Loops is not yet open sourced, nor has it completed its integration with ActivityPub, the protocol that powers Mastodon, Pixelfed, PeerTube, and other federated apps.
However, both those efforts are in the works and when complete, will allow Loops to add another layer of social activity to the growing open social web known as the fediverse, which now has north of 11.6 million users and over 1 million monthly active users. (Mastodon accounts for roughly 65% of that activity.) Growth in this space has also encouraged other apps to adopt ActivityPub, like social magazine app Flipboard and Meta’s Threads. The latter is not yet fully integrated but already has more than 200 million monthly active users.
