Mel Hopkins Posted June 16, 2022 Report Share Posted June 16, 2022 I usually block/mute bots in black face on twitter because they are easy to spot. They are easy to spot on AALBC too because they spew the same rhetoric as the " the greys" trying to claim supremacy. Unfortunately there are so few of us that participate in these discussions, I feel like we're playing a game of whack a mole when they pop up. Anyway, this is an oldie but goodie report from Black Enterprise on the rise of blackface bots 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stefan Posted June 16, 2022 Report Share Posted June 16, 2022 There are so many ways our people are being undermined. Fake social media accounts are some of the most annoying. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greg Posted June 16, 2022 Report Share Posted June 16, 2022 “our people” get undermined? In what way? I think if we paid more attention to making responsible decisions( not having babies at 19 and not commiting crime) , working hard, and stop making excuses and talking about bots, we would be in much better shape. But I guess the easy thing to do is to blame others. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mel Hopkins Posted June 17, 2022 Author Report Share Posted June 17, 2022 1. Always demand evidence from those who troll forums and liter threads with egregious and false generalizations. Don’t click any links. Their information only leads to more propaganda and malware. Instead, demand they include the url and a legitimate source. Note: Trolls never have a primary source - they are lazy and don’t have the capacity to do the research on their own. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
