Thread: On the 26th of August, a hashtag was reactivated to commemorate Akbar Bugti's death anniversary. I was given a tip that a lot of the users were not Baloch. So, I obtained the data for the entire data and made some interesting discoveries.
There were around 1800+ participants in the trend, with an original tweet count of 10k+ tweets. This does not count the retweets, as that would be redundant.
Imagine my surprise to see that the most active ones were not Pakistani. There were Baloch participants but not as much as the ones next door. Here is a chart for the Top 10 participants in the trend. Ignore "gamesreeder" as it got in the way.
Examples of the sort of accounts which were tweeting in favor of the trend.
Samples of tweets which were sent out that day.
Names of the participants in the trend. The handle is on the left, with the number of tweets on the right. This is not a complete list.
The trend may not have been noticed in Pakistan but is important because we can see how they have been trying to interfere in our business.
Now let's go to how CPEC is an issue for certain people. I noticed another hashtag which claimed that it was exploiting our people. No prizes for guessing who was more visible here.
This is the TL of the hashtag which reached its peak back in June, around the same time as the attack on the KSE (29th June).
Once again please ignore the "Gamesredeer" account as it's not relevant. Look at the rest of the names here.
Now we have a chart of the verified people who participated in the trend. Most of them are not Pakistani.

These two trends are just some of the examples of how they are trying to wage a disinformation war against us. Yet, some people are in denial.
I forgot to add that I also found some Altafists in a couple of trends, where they have been tweeting about Sindhudesh. What does that signify?

I wonder why our neighbors are busy spreading fake news.
Not a coincidence that GB shared something similar earlier. It's not a coincidence that someone is purposely trying to sow the seeds of chaos. They don't care about Pakistan. It's about causing as much destruction as possible.
I have been analysing trends for years and have seen a lot of interesting stuff. When it comes to certain hashtags, there is always the presence of our neighbors there.
There are many hashtags where I discovered a heavy influx of our neighbors. How did I find out that they were from there? I am not lazy like some people to only depend on the location data. If people knew how to do their work, they would have known where they are from.
Some users don't share their location nor do their names give any clues from where they are. Those handles are not in the mix.
I think I need to go on a vacation next year where I leave all my devices at home. It's the weekend and I am excited about the work I will get to do.
Work challenges are always exciting for me. It gives me the ability to learn more. Most of the time, I finish before the deadline. The only obstacles are hardware issues or power outages.
If I had more resources and quality hardware, the results would be 350 percent better.
Congrats to Victoria Azarenka for making it to the final. She played really well. I am sad that Serena lost but at least I don't have to see her lose another Final. On the bright side, not as upset as I thought I would be. :) #USOpen
I am content with the fact that she has 23 GS titles (Singles). Credit goes to Vika for cutting down on her errors and winning the match. On the plus side, Serena still leads the head to head. :)
The only thing which bothered me to see racists going after Serena and claiming she faked the medical timeout. There is one thing they don't know about her and it's that she doesn't do that.
I got to meet the PM again after nearly a decade. Sadly no phones allowed inside but at least I got a pic of myself at Governor House.
Ps, the PM did look more handsome and fit MashaAllah. He spoke to the point, made some witty comments and showed us why he is a great statesman. I understood he would take his time to visit Karachi as he didn't want to come empty handed. Glad he mentioned the same thing to us.
I also got to have a quick chat with @Asad_Umar who was quite gracious. My neck hurt from looking up as he is so tall :). He was kind enough to listen to my comment about a certain situation (though I panicked and repeated myself).
