dwayne usually disappears for about a month then comes back with a different name, posts a lot for a couple of days, then disappears again.

sometimes I feel like those little reading exercises that emphasize "context clues" that elementary kids have should be given to horrible conversationalists
"so, this guy has been avoiding movies with grieving and loss and has given a specific period of time. do you think that at that time, he was grieving?" *points to picture of man at movie theater*

On Nov. 7, the hashtag #pizzagate first appeared on Twitter. Over the next several weeks, it would be tweeted and retweeted hundreds or thousands of times each day.An oddly disproportionate share of the tweets about Pizzagate appear to have come from, of all places, the Czech Republic, Cyprus and Vietnam, said Jonathan Albright, an assistant professor of media analytics at Elon University in North Carolina. In some cases, the most avid retweeters appeared to be bots, programs designed to amplify certain news and information.“What bots are doing is really getting this thing trending on Twitter,” Albright said. “These bots are providing the online crowds that are providing legitimacy.”Online, the more something is retweeted or otherwise shared, the more prominently it appears in social media and on sites that track “trending” news. As the bots joined ordinary Twitter users in pushing out Pizzagate-related rumors, the notion spread like wildfire. Who programmed the bots to focus on that topic remains unknown.

Is it really so hard to purge all the eggs and obvious bot accounts? What value does all that sewage bring to the business?

silby otm except you can exchange them for $ via referrals. the volume for a particular hashtag / account / referral combo is small but with bots working on several thousand hashtags a day you can start to accumulate a critical mass. a less automated version of this is the entire basis of most online publishing. i imagine a crackdown is possible (and is happening) but i also imagine that it's an arms race that will be difficult to win.

that ioffe tweet was obv stupid and indecorous and in a perfect world she deserves some sort of punishment for that but probably also important to remember that the president-elect of the united states more or less rose to power saying stuff pretty similar to that
