All the automated forex trading bots that I found whom were speaking bad about solar city, or retweeting/faving negative content... also then started on Tesla once they bought em. They all coincided with the points in this narrative.Many have been purged. https://t.co/AWaYu24CmZ

There seems to be an underground market for spam bots on twitter. I suspect that a number of people could tell the writing on the walls and joined in on the attempt at gaming how Tesla operated. Weaponizing social sentiment against him.https://t.co/XBix4EqDln

Its hard to tell exactly who (or what) ran the spam bots. But it was really interesting to me how many of them jumped on anonymous news sources who peddled in narratives over facts. This suggests to me they were targeting armchair traders.https://t.co/iH4Nz8FSwi

The angle from the piece musk posted has been my own framing since at least October of last year. https://t.co/a1O0k1tmbg

I was collecting many in lists here for a while.The ones I caught (notably: they used the 'pretending to be news accounts' thing that NPR article is about), look like they're deleted. Twitter: just pl at catching spam!Some of them still exist, transitioned into posting porn. https://t.co/7lxmqGIwud


Something suspicious is going on.#MarkovianParallaxDenigratehttps://t.co/tLHRvddIZq

I love our new cyberpunk techno-dystopian future driven on the back of marketing incentives.https://t.co/EuiHwy9HVE

Narratives from May; all F.U.D.You spooped yet? Raged?"Too much competition. Tesla stock will drop...""Tesla Will Soon Face a New Headache – Real Competition""Tesla is Racing Ahead of the EV Competition...""Tesla Faces Stiff Competition...""Tesla's "Other" Biggest Risk"

Oh no, other countries also make cars. Can Tesla survive?Oh no, other countries also make rockets. Can spaceX survive?Oh no, other countries also make solar panels, can Solar City survive?Oh no, you are being trolled by a narrative of fear.

Everywhere I look, two truths and a lie.https://t.co/Zfd9RZlgT4

I also made this @LinusTech face when learning people bought the wrong zoom stock back in march. Closest thing I know to schadenfreude. A sort of nervous laughter mixed w/ disbelief+dawning recognition. https://t.co/mqmcIczmeaTL;DR: "Ha Ha Ha, Oh Wow"https://t.co/Cczh8jNWHw

I no longer have emotions in my head, everything is just a meme or an emoji. https://t.co/aRnWFQLCEr


TFW: you realize "TFW" can be construed under Durkheim's constructivisim & there have been many research papers on "social construction of emotion" citing his theories. Further they all basically epitomize Lisa Barrett's ideas of emotional construction. https://t.co/sStHesQCkU

I was learning about Inuit history and use of dolls as a way to explore their cultural heritage because I wanted to learn about how their learning theory intermixed with emotion, dietary norms and resource constraints.https://t.co/bKr7tQigDy

Do you ever dance between learning theory and the social construction of knowledge while eating memes about propaganda as model of information spread and simultaneously thinking about how state of your gut microbes impact on learning and emotion?https://t.co/VT3eBfOOJXWhy not?

Have you ever merged your ideas together for no reason?https://t.co/Foj9TJLOqX

I'm trying to figure out if I can use a quantum based model of information spreading to simulate lensing effects & information flow among networks of ants as an analogy for computational fluidics and phononics, as a proxy for memetics as a form of emergent networked computation.

My thoughts jump between threads in the same way that someone blurts out "oh, I remember" late at night while laying in bed. But I have a memex to record the connection being made.https://t.co/wjokEImdVl

"contends that group-level emotion is powerful, pervasive, and irreducible to individuals. People do not merely associate with groups (or states), they can become those groups through shared culture, interaction, contagion, and common group interest."https://t.co/YpbNLvQT4D

Are emotions just a kind of meme that biases toward speed vs accuracy? Like a progressively loading image, you get the larger harmonics first?https://t.co/H4eR7bV0Iv

Thinking a lot about how so many drugs that impact depression seem to taint and attenuate the activation of fear memories. It's like a metaprogram in a mind that runs self-modifying code.https://t.co/tzoqZI6gyx

Thinking that at some fundamental level, the "surround yourself with others you want to be like" and "always be the dumbest in the room" is actually about memetic reprogramming & voluntary trust violation.https://t.co/7FCuWpdH1m

I wonder how many of the anti-tesla bots and news accounts were actually Russian and Chinese propaganda campaigns meant to subvert America's ability to launch spy satellites. https://t.co/6wnCutXN3U

Did you know rocket fuel is derived from big oil? Kerosene is from crude oil distillation & Methane is natural gas."if absolute supply of kerosene or methane is an issue, we'll be too far gone to have the technical infrastructure to support spaceflights" https://t.co/IUBtKL6jsw

With nuclear powered satellites being effectively banned due to space treaties and generally being problematic to produce due to the weaponization aspect, solar panels seem like the only other option. https://t.co/uzfSFpFTV6
