Random At Worst: Twitter Is A PROPAGANDA FACTORY
Twitter's now known as the internet's "town square" and with over 300 million monthly users, it definitely lives up to its reputation. That being said, there's also a lot of inauthentic and misleading content on the platform. Let's explore not only the "why" but the "how" behind how bad faith actors manipulate Twitter, and what we can do to make it a healthier, more genuine space to freely exchange ideas.

Random At Worst: Blue MAGA 101
If you've been on Twitter for any period of time over five minutes, you've definitely seen them -- legions of Twitter accounts with the same number of badges/hashtags/flags in their bios, defending every action that liberal politicians in the west take, with a seemingly-endless supply of bad faith. They have many names; shitlibs, brunchies, champagne socialists, fauxgressives and many more, I'm sure. They also barely seem like real humans, and to be honest, that's not a totally invalid observation to have, given Twitter's bot problem and how effective North American propaganda is.
If these people confuse you, you're far from alone. Here's what Blue MAGA represent, why they're so goddamn annoying and how you can keep these "radical leftists" (HEAVY eyeroll) at bay.
