Everyone will not understand what they are looking at, so I will explain how Project Veritas spreads disinformation and manipulates trends on Twitter step by step. I will omit some details for obvious reasons, but I feel it’s crucial for people to understand the process...
Step 1: Acquire inactive and newly created Twitter accounts.
Step 2: Use ClickToTweet to create a pre-filled tweet that can then be shared with your followers.
Step 3: Use Telegram to share the ClickToTweet link so your followers can SPAM the pre-filled tweets on Twitter...

Step 3: Use Telegram to share the ClickToTweet link so your followers can SPAM the pre-filled tweets on Twitter...
Step 4: Ask high-profile accounts to share the content to give the impression of organic activity.

Conclusion: The ClickToTweet activity is used to mask the inauthentic activity from the fake accounts. So when the folks at Twitter examine the activity, it just looks like SPAM from ClickToTweet. Using public data and human sources, we are 1000% confident the accounts are fake…
And to suggest, hint, or infer newly created accounts SPAMMING the same content is somehow legit activity is simply absurd and defies logic.
