Twitter Bots Are Impersonating Black Americans To Sow Disinformation | MSNBC
(Visited 2 times, 1 visits today)
YES!!! I care about Black people, says the latest Biden ad!! However, here are the FACTS: You spent 36 YEARS in Congress and then 8 more as VP. In ALL THAT TIME, places where many minorities live NEVER GOT ANY BETTER; in FACT, THEY GOT WORSE!!! So, running some AD that some marketing group cooked up to make you look like you care just doesn’t cut it!!! In FACT: The purpose of this ad, to convince Blacks of a falsehood, is ABSOLUTELY OFFENSIVE to their intelligence!! FACT: You take the Black vote for granted: “If you are questioning who to vote for, YOU AIN’T BLACK”. FACT: You think Blacks are all the same and all think alike. FACT: You sat quiet for 90+ days while our cities were rioted, looted and burned until polls told you we actually do want Police protection and security and not chaos. FACT: You ‘threw a bone’ to Black people by the discrimination you used in choosing a VP; no one made the list unless they were a black woman because some poll told you, not because it was actually what you wanted. FACT: You proudly proclaimed writing the Crime Bill that incarcerated an inordinate number of Blacks for extremely long prison terms for even minor drug offenses because you considered these people “superpredators”. FACT: And now you choose the one person who took pleasure in locking up her own Black brothers and sisters under the law YOU WROTE!!!!
Trump has shown Blacks, with ACTUAL ACTIONS, that HE CARES!! FACT: Trump enacted Prison Reform to right the wrongs of YOUR Crime Bill!!! FACT: He has established business development zones to help start and build Black owned businesses. FACT: Trump has provided the funding to Black Colleges so they can survive and thrive. FACT: Trump had gotten Black unemployment down to the lowest level EVER, prior to Covid, which we all know that NO ONE can control a virus. FACT: Trump has given every working American a tax cut, bringing home more money in their checks. FACT: Trump is working to make sure that jobs come back to the US and that US jobs are filled by LEGAL, US workers.
Having seen the RNC that MSNBC refused to broadcast, MANY prominent Black people unequivocally call Trump friend and stated that he IS NOT racist, as this media outlet would have people believe!!!! Are you to have us to believe that Herschel Walker and Daniel Cameron and Vernon Jones and Tim Scott and Jack Brewer, etc. all lying?? NO! MSNBC and the media ARE!!!!
Think For Yourselves!!

Anybody care to engage Black folks like myself who are sitting out the election for rational reasons, or are you just gonna continue to call everybody bots? If y'all want to get the REAL sentiment of Black people, go to real Black media, and I'm not talking about Roland Martin, Van Jones and Joy Reid. On pages that are dedicated to the concerns of Black folks, you'll see a completely different reaction to Biden and Harris by Black people.Today, the msm does not relay the voices of how we feel.
Hehe MSNBC talking about fake news, that is so funny.

If ONLY the "president" was SOOOOO invested in actually CARING FOR AMERICAN LIVES. If trump gave ONE TENTH the energy he does to Twitter to CARING FOR AMERICAN LIVES we might be in a different place. PLEASE vote America. We MUST!!!
Wow! I WONDER if the "president" will be vocal/visible/present/transparent in CONDEMNING such heinous activity!
I wonder……………………PLEASE vote America. The ONLY way to "make America great again" is to rid ourselves of this stinking narcissistic criminal.
Lots of bots out here ''shakin' and fakin'' and they're biting . . . hook. line and sinker
I hope the black gets the share of reparations
BLUE ACROSS THE BOARD 🙃🙃🙃👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍🙂🙂
It’s not exactly new.
But I’m glad they keep putting it out there.
So people on msnbc impersonate journalist every minute of the day
7:10 EXACTLY!!!!!!!!!
That bull crap will not work
i dont understand how anyone who is black(that isnt a multimillionaire and even still) could even think about voting for trump.
There's fake "Asian" accounts who endorse Trump on social media as well. Go figure…
Intelligence people should know fake reports, trump is the true evidence of what he represents, he promotes racism and he’s incompetent. No need to read it because he is so transparent.
You mean Candice Owen is fake?
So wait, you mean to tell me y'all "kinda have" a solution to the BIG PROBLEM this whole segment was about and the best way to bring it up was telling us your not going to tell us!?!? Stay tuned tho, we might do a show about it later.
"like whatever bro" no big deal 🤷♂️
WHAT A PILE OF CRAP PEOPLE DO YOU THINK THESE FOOLS WENT TO THEIR HOMES TO SEE IF THEY ARE BLACK? HUH REALLY. NO THESE ARE REAL PEOPLE WHO SEE THE TRUTH AND CHANGED NOW TWITTER CANCELS THEM OUT. DOES ANYONE EVEN THINK THESE BS REPORTS THROUGH. WHO CARES HOW MUCH TRUMP TWEETS?? TRUMP WINS IN A LANDSLIDE.
Do you want to KNOW WHO the violent ones are?? Just ask the people posting here what they will do IF Trump gets re-elected and watch the responses. Then go to Fox News page and ask posters there what they will do IF Biden wins?
We already know the answers to both of these questions; In the case of Trump supporters, regardless of who wins, they will go back to work as usual. And, if Biden loses, Biden supporters will go BACK to their protesting, rioting, looting, shooting and burning but even more so!!!! Think For Yourselves!!
This is going on on all social networks
Sounds like election campaign propaganda trying to indirectly influence voters….from Russia with love.
Bots impersonating black people is not anything new. This has been happening for awhile on multiple websites.
