Big Oil's #trollswarms continue to attack the MSM.🧌
@CNN's post today is the latest one to be hit, burying it in doubt and disinformation.🤨
Take #ClimateAction: 'patrol' for ANY new posts by large mainstream media accounts and get in ASAP with solid climate info.✅
1/2 ctd⬇️
Mike's tweet has over TEN THOUSAND replies, 99% of which are #trollnoise from #climatechange #deniers.
This is what #trollswarms do, folks.👹👹👹
It's a new way for the #DenialMachine to confuse the public: burying #socialmedia #ClimateCrisis posts in #misinformation and noise.
This is how #trollswarms start, folks:
Popular accounts make inflammatory (often ignorant) posts and their followers flock to 'ratio' the target.
In this case, Matt locked his post's replies to limit the #disinformation and #trollnoise.
It's a common #trolltactic, so #BeAware.
I think this is April's #DumbestDenier tweet winner!
If you want to see #trollswarms of #climatechange #deniers, head over to @MikeHudema's posts.
The #DenialMachine is determined to bury his #ClimateAction in #misinformation and #trollnoise.
Help him out, #ClimateBrawl folks!
5/5 Lastly, ALWAYS vet new followers: check for them daily and scan their timelines for significant misinfo/disinfo.
You also never know who might be tweeting replies to #trollswarms to encourage #dogpiling on you.
#BeAware of who's following you and be proactive in checking.✅
