"""
Early on pro-Palestinian accounts dominated the social media space. Soon, they noticed, pro-Israeli comments increased vastly.

According to Baydoun, the pro-Israeli bots they found mainly aim to sow doubt and confusion about a pro-Palestinian narrative rather than to make social media users trust them instead.

Interesting feature on bots probably being used to advance political agendas on social media around the Gaza situation. https://www.aljazeera.com/features/longform/2024/5/22/are-you-chatting-with-an-ai-powered-superbot

Be wary of new mastodon accounts purporting to be American progressives who won't vote for Biden due to his "enabling of the Palestinian genocide." Especially when they misunderstand simple American colloquialisms.

I notice spambots at newsmast.community have started reposting everything I write with certain hashtags.

I'm blocking the bots individually as they pop up, but I wonder if we need more concerted action for the entire site.
