How is this possible? Are they paying social media companies in foreign countries to do their posting?
qntmfred•4m ago
it's of course possible. it wouldn't make sense, but it is certainly possible. the more important question is whether it is true. no, it is not.

Most of Maga is in Africa, and all over Africa? A bit difficult to understand.

Likely bots using VPNs.

The article is admittedly very difficult to follow, but that's not what it is saying.

That is something that it is quoting. Including a "community note" that it is a map of male circumcision from some academic paper.

The article is implying that the account that posted the map (which is "fake news" according to the community note in the screenshot) was revealed to be from some country other than the US.

Twitter’s monetization program rewards engagement. It’s not life changing amounts in the developed world. It is in much of Africa.

AFAIK this was fake news. Plenty of screenshots flying making many claims about the intentions of all kinds of people, Israelis, Indians, Nigerians, etc.
karel-3d•6m ago
No it was not. That screenshot was nonsense. And if you believe it you are quite gullible.

Hindustan times article was much better on this. Shows that this issue is prevalent on both side, with seemingly less of an axe to grind against Israel, and Right wing accounts.

yup. it's just discord sowing all around. cambridge analytica wasn't all that long ago.

(a) The Canary is not a reliable journalistic news source

(b) The article says “Twitter is incredibly buggy, so sometimes different people have different user experiences” but then presents the “evidence” of location as incontrovertible proof.

(c) One of the maps purporting to show MAGA account locations has a community fact check note attached to it saying that it is, in fact, a map of the prevalence of male circumcision.

We cannot allow anything mentioning Israel on hacker news. Mods, quickly, flag it.

I have yet to see any definitive proof that this is real.

The screenshot in this post appears fabricated (specifically, the 'July 2008 in Israel' is misaligned): https://x.com/astrrals/status/1991942287128199433

The video evidence is equally unconvincing: https://x.com/AdameMedia/status/1992288673887343014

I haven't seen any other video evidence besides this.

Additionally, Nikita Bier has gone on record stating that "Location was not available on any gray check account at any point." https://x.com/nikitabier/status/1992382852328255743
