1. Meet Clara Welch, or ClaraWSparkles.

She’s a young entrepreneur from the Cotswolds and London.

Who loves both politics and theatre.

(Thread)
2. Clara has some firm political views.

She says she knows a lot of Muslim people, for example.
3. She also claims that her husband bumped into @David_Lammy.
4. She claims her husband then read an internet meme to Lammy.

A meme that claims racism doesn’t exist.

Clara claims that David Lammy then:

“screwed his face up and threatened to have him arrested”

for relaying this meme.

(Why is it always David Lammy!?)
5. Clara asks a lot of candid political questions.

Usually about immigrants, Trump, Antifa or Trans people.

You know, normal, early 20’s, entrepreneur, chat.
6. Clara, for whatever reason, is specifically very interested in “Albanians”.
7. Perhaps she’s become so focused on Albanians, and so opposed to “virtue signalling”, because her husband was mugged, in October 2019.

By 4 Albanians at knifepoint.
8. Clara’s friend was also mugged at knifepoint by some Albanians.

That time, maybe September 2019, there were 3 Albanians.
9. Not just Albanians though.

Nigerians, Eritreans and Somalians etc too.

And that’s a fact!
10. Clara spends some of her time sending varying degrees of tweet negativity, at left wing journalists, TV personalities, politicians, black academics.

Who quite often block her.
11. The thing is, there is no young Cotswolds entrepreneur, called “Clara Welch”.

Who likes Non-Chinese jewellery and Trump.
12. An older lady with a vaguely similar, but completely different, name, runs the account.

The photos of “Clara”, are actually pictures of her daughters.
13. Clara’s current profile picture is taken from Facebook.

Perhaps a rotated one was chosen to try and avoid reverse image search.

(Daughter’s FB profile, right, details censored)
14. Clara has changed profile pictures regularly, each time using a different daughter’s picture.

Usually cropping it or changing it slightly.

The photos of the younger women are publicly posted on Facebook or Instagram.
15. Who knows if “Clara” has permission to pose as a composite character of her daughters and pseudonym, on Twitter.
16. Or if the young women whose photos are being used, would approve of their relative sending photoshopped images of two mentally handicapped south African twins.

With Gary Lineker’s photo superimposed.

To Gary Lineker.

(Original famous photo by photographer Roger Ballen)
17. When arguing with other young women about Black Lives Matter, or statues, or Trump, Clara sometimes uses photos of her daughter to illustrate a point.
18. These photos are usually taken from the younger womens' public Facebook pages, or other social media.

And cropped, or changed slightly.
19. Lots of right wing trolls send negative messages to Sadiq Khan, David Lammy and BLM activists.

But not all right wing Twitter characters flirt with men using “bait” pictures, or what appear to be workout videos of their daughter wearing tight shorts.

(Buttcheeks censored)
20. Or use a character to flirt with middle aged guys on Twitter.
21. The naughty step.
22. Or flirt as “Clara”, using different daughters' pictures, at different times.

(Different person vs. the profile picture)
23. Hopefully “Clara” has permission to use these pictures and run this Twitter character/persona.
24. There’s plenty more to “Clara's" internet presence and social media, but let’s just...leave it at that. No one needs to see that.

This TrollZoo exhibit was a piece of joint research by the formidable @KDenkWrites, follow her for more.
25. Very tasteful. Very normal. Totally fine.

Welcome to the @TrollZoo ¯\\_ (ツ)_/¯
26. Fin.
