Oh look, it's a network of spammy accounts tweeting identical tweets containing the hashtag #Accelerationism.

This network consists of 98 accounts created between August 2020 and October 2021. All have few or no followers, and the majority have female names. All 98 accounts (allegedly) tweet via the Twitter Web App.
The accounts in this network do two things:
• Post original tweets, which are generally duplicated verbatim across multiple accounts in the network. 54.8% of these tweets (1918/3499) contain the hashtag #Accelerationism.
• Retweet, reply to, and quote tweet popular accounts.
This network tweets about three general topics (with #Accelerationism turning up frequently in its tweets about all of them)
• political issues, mostly related to the USA and China
• the Suez canal, and blockages thereof
• cars (with a fixation on the "Need for Speed" games)
Like many networks of inauthentic accounts, this network uses stolen photographs of random people as profile pics. Google reverse image search proved effective for locating previous usage of the images.
Here's a paste of the IDs of the 98 accounts in this network, in case anyone wants it.
