The trending hashtag list is I imagine the ones pushed by accounts marked as bots. Discounting the list of hashtags means stating they haven’t identified bots.

A building funded by putin is filled with people working in shifts to push lies on social media to encourage people to hate each other. That’s an issue worth chasing, imperfectly identified or not.
Doing so by ENGAGING IN DISINFORMATION as McKew did is not the way to defeat it.

Yes It appears to be your opinion, that it’s willful DISinformation rather than just inaccurate/imperfect, please link me to your evidence that it is intended to be divisive disinformation.
-
45, you agreed it's "divisive." It's your "opinion" too. Suddenly, you want a link that it's "intended" as opposed to "inaccurate/imperfect?" Why didn't that matter earlier? Does your hair splitting warrant the passion you invest in it?

The accusation is “engaging in disinformation”!! Where is the evidence that this tag list is _willful deceit_ and not merely an imperfect picture of suspected bot activity?pic.twitter.com/DsqZe3f1vw

45, when you want to be taken seriously, don't avoid questions by spamming TL's with opinions you already provided. I already knew you changed horses in mid-stream. You're demanding ew respond. Why can't you? Have you contributed to ew's site? https://www.emptywheel.net/support/ If not, why
-
I am not changing horses. My first tweet is to question why the taglist was attacked by
@emptywheel with hyperbole. Turns out the reason for this is they think it is *disinformation*. Is it, or not? -
You did. It's in your TL, along with the "hyperbole." Guess that's a "no" on donating. Why won't you support ew's work?
-
You aren’t being clear at all, but the irony of being accused of changing horses in midstream, by a new and unknown horse, IS clear. I would rather donate to
@conspirator0 or@TrickFreee or other bot tracking efforts. -
At least you didn't deny the hyperbole. If you thought I wasn't "being clear," why didn't you mention that in your prior tweet? How much have you donated to
@conspirator0 and@TrickFreee in 2017?
