    Twitter bot exposes trolls impersonating minorities

    Maybe a small step in fixing the toxicity of twitter. Maybe some day it will clean up other bad corners of the internet. This new bot targets trolls that posting defaming statements against minorities, while hiding behind a fake avatar of the targeted minority.

    [Source]
    The problem is, most casual social media users aren’t even aware that this sort of racist deception is being perpetrated, let alone trained to be vigilant for it. And Twitter isn’t really capable of the detective work to identify these accounts and take them down as they spring up.

    So the question becomes: How can users fight back? Can this insidious tool of anti-Semitic harassment be defanged like the (((echoes))) that were previously used by internet bigots? The answer is yes, and it takes the form of a Twitter bot.

    Meet Imposter Buster, social media’s new sheriff. He is programmed with an updated database of impersonator accounts, and every time one of them tweets, he automatically replies and exposes them with pre-programmed evidence.

    What about minorities acting like spiteful pricks to their own group while pretending to not be of that group?

    Wow the example is a bit ridiculous. That is so obviously an over the top mockery it should jump at everyone. Just like "Shlomo Shekelstein" or similar stuff.
    @Mormolyce, actually given the tendencies of those groups to send themselves threats and fabricate their evidence. I kinda don't think this is really something they would want to pursue. Fake News already blew up in their face.

    Sounds clever. Whether it will make an impact remains to be seen.

    Sounds stupid, the bot has to be programmed the accounts that are already known so the bot finds nothing. If you have that information ban them, oh wait this is just a ploy to use more political bs.


    So if twitter cant do the investigation work, how can they program the bot with knowledge only an investigation would uncover? We really are in the age of retard if people fall for this.

    What if the twitter bot is just some guy pretending to be a bot so he can slam all the opinions he doesn't like.

    Only libtard SJW feminist pieces of trash impersonate others to try and make it seem like they're being persecuted. Good, up standing conservative cishet white males would NEVER do something like impersonation to make others look bad!

    You don't impersonate them. You fight for them because you think they're unable to, because they aren't intelligent enough. So basically cucks are biggest racists you can meet. THEY insult minorities.

    It seems the people who scream "fake news" have become so accustomed to to being made to look stupid, that they don't realize they're making a joke of themselves every time they scream "fake news" at legitimate stories. It certainly is amusing watching them think/believe they've "owned" someone by crying "fake news" at stories reporting on actual events carried by nearly every news outlet there is.

    You've gone a bit too far down the rabbit hole it seems.

    No, I didn't. Many major internet "feminists" were proven to think that black women can't simply speak for themselves, that they have to do it for them, that they have to be in leadership positions. Fake fights, fake activists, who are actually exactly what they "fight" against.
