Things like acting like MAPs (pedophiles) are part of the LGBTQIA+ community when the core principle of the LGBTQIA+ is “let consenting parties do as they wish” and a pedophilic relationship intrinsically lacks consent

WaPo: Twitter has false users designed to undermine the political process by spreading manufactured outrage!!! We’re shocked! Shocked! There’s gambling going on in here!
This is why I hate Twitter and Facebook. Their algorithms are designed to promote posts that cause political division.
Any service where you viewing ads is the actual product is the same. YouTube reliably will serve me up recommended videos with titles like “dumb lib-slammed!” or “pwning liberals at the library” or other random things. I never watch them and am confused why they keep sending them my way. The stuff being foisted on people is just toxic.

There had to be signs before it got this far…had to be. Any word yet on who (or what group) was behind the account? This is like that “liberal leaning” TikTok account that was exposed as being faked. I’m very careful of quoting or up voting any emotionally charged hot-takes on things, especially when I agree with them. It’s hard to tell when people are acting in good faith these days.
