I've got admin assist rules set up that should automatically bounce accounts like this from joining a Facebook group I admin, but I've had a bunch of them get in somehow in the past week. Obvious GANs, fake ladies from New York. IDK what's going on yet but something changed.

It seems I’ve upset some feelings by pointing out that the Centro Cultural Kyle Rittenhouse in La Plata has a portrait of Javier Milei on the walls. 🤷🏻‍♀️ Quite a few bilingual men are Very Upset that I pointed out that portrait. I didn’t say anything else about Milei and they’re all up in my mentions. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Behold the Facebook page for the Centro Cultural Kyle Rittenhouse, a real place in La Plata, Argentina. The "Kyle Rittenhouse Cultural Center" got raided today and its far-right extremist owner, José Derman, has been detained. infobae.com/politica/2022/… 1/ José Derman uploaded an 11 min video to YouTube celebrating the attempted assassination of @CFKArgentina, calling people to take up arms to “uproot Marxism” and a bunch of other unhinged, violent ramblings. He's being charged with public intimidation. 2/

Horrible (and confusing) mass casualty event happened tonight in NEPA. Lots of unconfirmed info circulating on social media 😔 There was a tragic house fire last weekend in Nescopeck, PA that was ruled arson. 10 people died including 3 kids, multiple generations of the same family. Tonight, someone drove a car into a crowd of people at the fundraiser for that fire 😔 cbsnews.com/philadelphia/n…

Short 🧵 about far-right PA Facebook groups I got kicked out and blocked from the Pennsylvanians Against Excessive Quarantine Facebook group in April 2020 but that group is run by the Dorr Brothers.

Can someone please give Elon Inside the SPAM Cartel amazon.com/Inside-SPAM-Ca… I have graphed spam bots in action on here. To see it in real time, it's like a force of nature. Spam mutates in order to continue spreading, like a virus.

11 Mexican journalists have been murdered in 5 months. The Special Prosecutor for Crimes against Freedom of Expression (FEADLE) has only achieved 2% of convictions in all cases of murdered journalists since its creation in 2010. elespanol.com/reportajes/202… -It’s not the narco

“Those who order the murders are not the cartels or the President of the Republic, but middle managers, a head of offices, the assistant to the governor, the councilor of a town hall…” (cont.)

Welp I filed a report on his latest "blog." Seems like obvious harassment but since he's already published 20+ blogs harassing another activist IDK what to expect. jimstewartson.substack.com/p/who-the-fuck… TOS guidelines: on.substack.com/p/how-we-appro… by @cjgbest @jairajs89 @hamishmckenzie I mean is this the kind of content y'all had in mind when you started Substack?

I just got a sponsored ad on Facebook and it opened this website that's masquerading as Fox News. It's actually a company selling CBD gummies. There's a disclaimer way at the bottom in tiny font. ImageImageImageImage The attention to detail to make it look like Fox News Image

TIL there's still a bunch of Atomwaffen accounts, propaganda & promotional materials on Instagram. Couple different languages too. 😕 Then I ended up in a far-right South American rabbit hole. Check out the translated list of "new free tools" 🙄

This Pennsylvania restaurant gained notoriety for opposing PA Dept of Health orders in 2020 & 2021. lebtown.com/2020/10/22/wha… At the end of May 2020 their Facebook page had just under 900 followers. The restaurant was issued citations in June 2020 and after attention from media and various PA politicians, their Facebook page traffic took off.

The way RW narratives jump languages barriers and geographic borders never ceases to amaze me. Here is "rising star" Japanese influencer (YouTuber?) Masako Ganaha being interviewed by former US Army Special Forces member Sargis Sangari. facebook.com/MasakoGanaha/p… By March 2021 she was "finishing up her three month investigative tour of the US covering U.S. elections, border issues, ANTIFA, drug gypsies, and CCP influence operations." She interviewed Matteo Degradi in Nov 2020: and Dec 2020:

I don’t remember signing up for Trump mail but I got 7 emails from TeamTrump in the past 24 hours, 6 of them since 8:20 am this morning. Negative, I am a meat popsicle.

Oh good, more graphs devoid of any information or context.

IDK Mr Noboddy (lilac) but the large labels in that cluster are accounts they’re following; seems like not all labels are to scale and certain accounts have been highlighted. @rocco_castoro is only following 990 people so if this is a graph of the accounts these folks are following, then something else is… off.

Is the cyan cluster Rocco’s 7701 followers? @fiondavision check my previous tweet, are the enlarged labels in pink accounts you follow?

I use the word "grift" to describe self-proclaimed "experts" who refuse to retract and issue corrections, despite being laughably wrong. This base motive is especially pronounced when said "experts" are men being corrected by women who are actual experts. Referring to Dave misreading the NYT yesterday and assuming Dr. Donovan does not know that disinformation is Actually very old and something something Koch Brothers? 🤷🏻‍♀️

Per the screenshot he tweeted, she traces the **modern** practice of disinformation (not all disinformation).
