For a change of pace, let's examine some memes and see if there are correlations between color usage and the number of retweets earned. We'll use the most recent 49256 memes posted by the account described in this thread as a dataset.

cc: @ZellaQuixote
In terms of color usage, this analysis will focus on the following three characteristics of each meme:

- average brightness
- average saturation
- hue/color tone (based on an average of the red, green, and blue values of the individual pixels)
In the scope of this dataset, here are the results:

- memes that are slightly darker than average got the most retweets
- memes with a lot of highly saturated colors received few RTs
- the green portion of the spectrum performed poorly (sorry, Pepe!)

Meet @ASGFiltration. At first glance this appears to be a promotional Twitter account for a business, but some of the content is. . . odd. The account has replied 722 times with the tweet pictured, and many of the replies seem out of context.

The tweet referencing Trump is not the only tweet @ASGFiltration has repeated. It is the most frequently repeated and the only one that is overtly political.
Repetition of tweets suggests a bot. @ASGFiltration doesn't tweet 24/7 and posts all tweets via the Twitter website making automation hard to prove, but manually posting the same tweet 722 times sounds more than a bit drudgerous.

To close out the year, let's take a quick look at the YouTube channels linked by the banned Internet Research Agency accounts. There are a total of 51790 tweets in English containing YouTube videos in the dataset provided by Twitter.

When one looks solely at the number of tweets linking to each YouTube channel, the situation looks relatively benign: a lot of music-related sites with a few mainstream news sources thrown in for good measure. Looking at amplification tells a different story, however. . .
The set of channels the IRA chose to retweet others tweets of is more interesting. A variety of far-right YouTube channels (such as @PrisonPlanet/Paul Joseph Watson's) as well as a couple of the official RT channels make the list of frequent fliers.

We have all seen people act the fool at airports, cinemas, in traffic, at hospitals etc. We have all heard them say that nonsensical, infantile, conceited irrational phrase "do you know who I am" when they are being corrected for doing the wrong things.
We have seen people who get up during a flight to open the overhead lockers while the seatbelt signs were on attack air hostesses for telling them to respect themselves and abide by the rules and regulations.
We have seen fellow Nigerians at the toll gate drive all the way to the end with no respect for queues and order, and expect to be treated as kings. We have seen them talk down to security at malls whose job is to check everyone coming in irrespective of who they are.

You guys: Roger Stone thinks I suck.

Even worse, he's not threatening to sue me this time.
Here's the post that made Roger Stone so cross.

Also, if Roger Stone calls me a #See You Next Tuesday can I call him a rat-fucker on TV?

1-I need to look into what triggers shills to come to my account and why. Because when they do, they all seem to concentrate in the same posts and have (allgegdly) no connection to each other.
What's more, #memes seem to trigger them and not posts per se.
& specific #hashtags
2- @CIA and other shills are DICKS. you know why? Cos you are all morons enough to come at the same time and concentrate in the same FUCKING post?
Are you seriously that dumb?
I don't need a degree to teach u the basics of stealth and concealment,but apparently you need a lesson
3-So here is the lessons:
-If you want to seem genuine, you need to come at me at different times and concentrating on different posts.
-If you all come at me at once (pretending not to know each other) and talking about the same post, I know are all FUCKING SHILLS
