There’s a new troll/bot remove guys:

You post something.

Soon a bot says something hateful, untrue or both, garnering likes from about 100 fellow bots to prop it up.

That part’s not new.

The NEW is the “good cop” bot who immediately appears to first COUNTER the hateful lie...
The #GoodCopBot goes back & forth w/ the #BadCopBot for a few rounds w/the good cop bot conceding points as they go along.

Before long you can’t even tell them apart.

But get this, that’s not even the goal...
The GOAL is to get YOU involved in the back and forth, by either thanking the #GoodCopBot or arguing w/the #BadCopBot.

Either one is fine because they BOTH amplify the bots. Leading to more likes by fellow bots and wasted time by you.

Time is finite.
Hoard yours.
Your time is better spent reporting each 27-follower-having bot that likes the initial post as fake and blocking them AND the good and bad cop bots.

That is Twitter time well-spent because that protects everyone on the platform during this important time in our nation and world.
Lastly, I’ve also noticed many pages full of 🌹 whose only goal appears to be the tearing down the eventual Dem nominee.

The nominee who is the only thing standing between us & 4 more years of orange-hued hell.

Don’t be fooled or discouraged by that either...
Though there are some who are privileged enough to not know or care about the harm another 4 years would cause. So they are determined to stay in their feelings because their chosen candidate didn’t win the nomination (again). 🥀

And to them I say: “Effie we ALL got pain!”
There’s no crying in politics. My top THREE didn’t win the nom, but they are EACH on board and FULLY supporting the one who DID. The principled don’t wallow. They pivot & support KNOWING that the alternative is death...literally.

Kudos @KamalaHarris @ewarren & @JulianCastro ✊🏾❤️
If those who wanted to BE President have gotten over their loss, surely the followers of those in that same boat can do the same.

But I digress, I mentioned the folks tearing down the nominee in order to say that their goal (real sore loser or bot) is voter suppression.
They want to sow enough despair for folks to think: “What’s the point?”

They will do that via false equivalency primarily.

Don’t fall for it. The 2 candidates are not the same. This is not about the lesser of 2 evils.

There is one evil. Fight it.

#VoteBlueToEndThisNightmare
This concludes my Ted talk.

Sorry for typos. In the first tweet of the thread, it should be new *MOVE* not “remove”

I’m sure there’s more...I was typing fast...but that one was glaring.
