Top MAGA influencer pests on Twitter outed as foreign-based accounts - Musk shuts location service down
(lemmy.world)
No great revelation here, I know. I doubt any of them are ex-pats.
Unregistered Foreign Agent in the before time. Mr Secretary now
Church?
Elon Musk
Here is yet more proof
A valuable asset to the board of shareholders.
Musk really is thick as shit.
Musk is an unabashed traitor.
To the surprise of only the brain dead magas. It's the same on reddit, clear as day.
Shocking, no one…
I can't believe how many people are JUST NOW fucking piecing this together... that when you make a system that provides small monetary rewards for creating engagement you have basically ensured a lock-step workforce who you never need to issue commands to, pay directly, or manage in any way.
Of COURSE every blue-check spreading divisive propaganda is someone in a country where $10.00 USD a month will help keep you alive and the potential for earning a grand for making enough Americans mad will change your whole life. We got people doing that shit for free.
The anonymity of the internet is a massive double-edged sword, and we need to understand that there's context to when anonymity is a benefit or not.
Just wait 'til everyone learns who's been using Facebook, Reddit and Youtube all this time as well. There's a reason why so much of the shit you see online seems so disconnected from what reality is like between normal Americans. Our entire Nation is being sabotaged by an army of people who don't have stake in our future.
Agree. But a question: As someone who used Twitter for 5 minutes (and then stopped because I realized it was making me too angry), what is the mechanism of monetizing a Twitter account? Kickbacks for getting people to click links (aka advertising)?
Basically retweets and follower quantity offer a monetary payout kind of like Youtube.
