This Newsweek article is based on a report produced by Impact SE- whose board includes a former Israeli Ambassador, a former FDD member, a member of AIPAC. Most of their reports have focused on Palestine and Muslim majority countries. They did a report on Saudi, which found
a lot of evidence of anti semitism in the curriculum which has been widely discussed. It has also done a report on the UAE - which was not a curriculum review but rather a focus on the UAE's moral education program - far more limited and does not mention anti semitism. It is
Interesting that both the UAE and Qatar report come out at the time of UAEs normalization with Israel. The report on UAE while preliminary and limited positions the UAE as a regional leader on textbook reform. Not quite sure how this could be determined without a review of other
Countries. Obviously not saying the reports don't have value, but there are questions about them being used as selective strategic communications tools
A larger question is why an org focused on tolerance does not seem to have a diverse board, and focuses solely on muslim majority countries

🚨🧵1/ Graph showing people on X sharing the 'Haitians' or 'Immigrants' are eating pets xenophobic and/or racist disinfo. @elonmusk gets the most engagement by far on the topic, but @jdvance @stillgray @Surabees @tedcruz @charliekirk11 @endwokeness & @bennyjohnson get a lot Image
2/ Here's a list of the accounts who got the most impressions. I counted a minimum of 399,984, 065 impressions - and I was only downloading tweets with a minimum engagement of 50 retweets - so the real figure is higher. Image
3/ Another horrible outcome of this is that we now have to endure disturbing and racist memes of Trump abducting kittens (presumably to eat). Even Musk shared one, along with several tweets on the topic - supercharging the disinfo

🧵1/ Thought I'd zoom in on the data from the Southport riots, especially given the recent arrest of a man in Pakistan - which has prompted some commentators & news outlets to use it as an opportunity to target people of colour once again. Let's look at what happened Image
2/ A man in Pakistan, Farhan Asif, who ran Channel3NowNews, was just arrested for spreading misinfo. Channel3NowNews used the made-up name "Ali Al Shakati," However, contrary to some right-wing i/allusions, Channel3NowNews was NOT the first to tweet this name, or be arrested Image
3/ The first known person to post the name "Ali Al Shakati" on X was actually Artemisfornow, aka Bernie Spofforth, a wealthy woman from Cheshire. She tweeted the name over an hour before Channel3NowNews. She was arrested over a week ago, and released on bail. Image

🚨Important thread highlights how X under Musk is putting people at risk

1) This account impersonating a man who helped stop a knife attack in London is still live, & has accumulated well over 1 million impressions.

2) It's history indicates it is a pro-Putin "bot" connected
Image
Image
possibly to Pakistan. However, it also has pro-Ismail Haniyeh & Hamas content

3) Regardless of what you think of Hamas, this is far right rocket fuel. Tommy Robinson already tweeted out the fake account, wrongly accusing him of supporting an "islamist genocidal regime"
Image
Image
4) Despite Musk claiming he would clamp down on impersonator accounts this account has not been suspended yet. This is happening amidst a wave of anti -immigrant and anti-muslim violence in the UK.

5)It was also retweeted (and deleted)

🧵🚨This account @abdullahfromuk is impersonating a man who stopped a knife attack in London's Leicester Square. His original account handle was ZartashaPti and he has been tweeting pro-Imran Khan content in Urdu and English for most of his account history. Image
It has also tweeted content that would suggest it's pro-Vladimir Putin (although not in any particularly sophisticated way). The account is in the process of deleting its tweets, and it looks like a classic sockpuppet farm, for-hire type account.

Image
@jneill has already highlighted some other content from the account, which again includes some Putin apologism Image

🧵🚨New analysis showing ALL tweets mentioning both "Muslim" & "UK" with over 500 retweets since 29 Jul. Graph shows which accounts got most impressions over time. Red/pink dots show anti-Muslim &/or anti-immigrant tweets, brown=neutral, green=tweets defending Muslims #UKRiots Image
2/ I grouped the tweets into the following three categories, 'anti', 'in defense of', and 'neutral'. Sadly the impressions gained by the number of 'anti' tweets was over 155 million (65%) while those 'in defense of' around 31 million. Neutral tweets were about 50 million. Image
3/ Parsing them finer we see that that the majority of the tweets were anti-Muslim, with half as many being both anti immigrant and both anti-Muslim. Some were solely anti-immigrant. #UKRiots Image

🧵🚨1/Somewhat depressing graph. I calculated whether all X posts with over 500 retweets mentioning the words "Muslim" and "UK" sent since 29th July were anti-muslim, anti-immigrant (red), neutral (blue), or in defense of muslims and/or immigration (green). #Ukriots #hatespeech Image
2/ I grouped the tweets into the following three categories, 'anti', 'in defense of', and 'neutral'. Sadly, the impressions gained by the number of 'Anti' tweets was over 159 million (67%), while those in defense of around 28 million. Neutral tweets were about 50 million Image
3/ Some of the most xenophobic and anti-muslim accounts include. @radiogenoa @goldingbf @tpointuk @jimfergusonuk @ashleasimonbf @europeinvasionn The degree of hate varies, from outright conspiracy theories, to suggestions that Muslims enjoy special treatment by the police. Image
