I had a look at @KhurramDehwar's thread on the disinformation related to the 71 war and would like to add some more to it.
Days before Pakistan Resolution day, I noticed small networks retweeting the same content. Since the 23rd was coming up, I did not tweet about it as it would distract everyone.
The campaign kept continuing with the hashtag used in the tweets below. You will see an interesting connection here.
They continued with a hashtag which they use in the same time period everywhere. Our very own Taha Bourne sure loves talking about this.
Then we had more chatter related to this hashtag.
If you use the same keywords or a variation of it, you will spot a lot of similar tweets. It's been around two weeks and they are still at it.

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.

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.

Extremely horrifying to see people trying to blame the victim. If you have nothing good to say, please keep your "opinion" to yourself and get help.
One should not make fun of other countries who have a poor track record of violence against women. We are also in the same list.
What we forget is how so many incidents are not reported . Instead of laughing at others, we should focus on fixing these issues.
