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

@Luiz0x29A Yep. It's been a long time coming. All the old email spam campaigns just moved to social + got more effective. https://t.co/wtpI9QT9Gu

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

@hintjens I was tracking a bot ring that artificially boosts zerohedge content when it fit a narrative (stock manip?). Suppose I am biased.

@facetioussoup There's legit problem, but it's being narrativized & amplified by sharks looking to arbitrage high stock volatility: https://t.co/x4eFNrLWRH

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

Everybody's afraid of AI militarized. When in reality it's easier to conquer by economic means. Markets as a form of information warfare?

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

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?

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

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

Some people are memetic ecosystem engineers. They don't create the memes, but their thought droppings fertilize the area and memeforms flourish in the detritus.

That china would be fighting on solar production front, and Russia fighting rockets... It kinda makes sense to see that merge interestingly when those companies merged.

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

Certainly there are other options out there, but if you wanna influence the economic networks around energy, you're fundamentally acting on the ability to produce rocket fuel or power satellites.

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
