Data Republican said that foreign operators are posing as MAGA, hijacking the cause, and turning people against President Trump. She begins describing the threat by warning about Nick Fuentes and references the abuse @SarahIsCensored has endured for criticizing him. She calls Fuentes the the third rail of MAGA X. If you dare say anything against him, you can expect to be torched.
From there, Data went into a timeline which you can review following the X post below. She said the report published by Network Contagion Research Institute is a NGO with opaque funding and less than transparent motives. However, she added, it has impressive data science, but the way it presents it is often biased.
The authors of the report have an agenda. Their motives aren’t well-intentioned, but Data independently said she confirmed much of their information. The bottom line is Foreign state actors and bots amplify a handful of X accounts making controversial posts, the foremost among them being Nick Fuentes and his followers.
She gave an example of Nick Fuentes and his followers calling facts about the murder of the Israeli embassy couple by the socialist Party for Socialism & Liberation (PSI) false flags. We know that Elias Rodriguez murdered the couple and he is a member of the PSL. PSL is backed by Neville Singham, who is under Congressional investigation for acting on the behalf of CCP.
“Foreign state actors certainly would want to keep this information hidden and amplify the “false flag” narrative!
“And indeed, this is what happened: Nick Fuente’s “false flag” post got 48K likes, and NCRI noted bot-like responses. Now, caveat: X’s comment hiding system is odd and I was only able to view a few dozen comments or so out of the 1.2K comments he got, so I wasn’t able to independently verify that part,” Data said.
“However, @SarahisCensored has commented to me many times that she noticed this same phenomenon. And others have noticed as well.
“Nick Fuentes’ army is artificially boosted in some part. And it seems reasonable that foreign actors invested in splintering the MAGA coalition is the reason why.”
“Note the timestamps. The pattern typically is: Nick Fuentes Xeets out something controversial and divisive of MAGA – such as Trump being implicated in Epstein files – and the alleged bad actors amplify and follow.”
There is more and Data links to the report which you can read for yourself. She makes a good point and said while the report isn’t perfect, it raises serious, well-documented concerns. Circumstantial evidence points to foreign actors using the Groypers as a vehicle to splinter the MAGA movement.”
Other Possibilities
Lawyer influencer Robert Barnes jumped in and said Fuentes works for the Feds. The report doesn’t say Fuentes and others named in the report work for foreign actors. It could be a Fed project.
Maybe or maybe they are foreign bots.
People have to be careful not to be swayed, but people know that. There is little doubt people want to manipulate MAGA on these social media sites to destroy us from within.
Influencer Maze Moore offered observations.
“This reminds me of the Hamilton 68 scam. Their “data” proving Russian influence on social media wasn’t real data at all and yet for over a year every MSM outlet quoted it as fact.
“One of the first claims I saw when I read this report by NCRI is that foreign influence bots destroyed the Democrat party. That’s laughable.
“The report doesn’t claim that Fuentes or other influencers work for a foreign country, just that they post propaganda “seeded by Russia.” What does that mean? I’m no Fuentes fan, but I don’t understand what that claim means. He’s either being paid by Russia or not. I don’t think he’s reading Kremlin newspapers looking for what to say on his podcast for free.
“Jackson Hinkle? Yeah, we don’t need a report to know that he is a foreign bought POS.
“The main claim is that the bots amplifying these influencers are foreign. Maybe. Probably. The entire site is filled with bots. Look at AOC’s account. I know a lot about the fraud that was Hamilton 68. It was a complete sham. That’s why I don’t put much stock in this stuff.
“People can be engagement farmers and/or jerks without being agents of Russia or Iran. If there isn’t proof that an influencer is being paid by a foreign government, it’s all crazy speculation. Just like the Tucker Carlson stuff. I read this report. Not sure what you or they actually confirmed.”
I guess what is confirmed is bad actors have large followings and they are trying to destroy our movement. Some could be foreign actors.
For added information, Hamilton 68 was a digital “dashboard” that claimed to track Russian influence. It was the source of hundreds if not thousands of mainstream print and TV news stories in the Trump years.
Hamilton 68 is funded by Alliance for Securing Democracy (ASD), their mother ship. Members included John Podesta, Michael Cherthoff, and Michael McFaul. They call themselves nonpartisan, but they are wholly corrupt.
THREAD: “Fake MAGA,” Foreign Ops & the Nick Fuentes Factor
This week on X has been chaotic, and every influencer I’ve talked to feels it.
A new report dropped, and it’s making serious claims: that foreign propaganda accounts are masquerading as MAGA to hijack conservative… https://t.co/4GmQKSkBIB

Influencers: People that lie, cheat, steal, and/or manipulate people into giving them “free stuff”. And what do they actually do other than not be real? Only weak minded people would ever be influenced by and “influencer”.
I am skeptical and always distrustful of those who are influenced by “influencers.” The weak leading the blind. Think for yourself.
Problem is that these people create a fake identity as a supporter, then present propaganda as facts. They are very damaging to MAGA
There’s lots of propaganda out there attacking MAGA from a clever vantage point. The leftists make no headway with their slogans. The more effective way of hurting MAGA is the “concern troll”, pretending to be on MAGA’s side, while attacking Trump. I see these people on any big site. Some of them make it into here also.
Nick Fuentes is a suspicious character. I see him on IW and other places. He is arrogant, has some crazy idea that he makes correct predictions. And he says some ridiculous things in his “analysis”. People that behave in that manner are cultists, or, propagandists. Plus his youth makes him look less credible, this guy has not been around. I… Read more »
What do you do when you find out Iran already has the bomb and has had it for at least 15 years?
One thing you do is conclude that the constantly ranted claim that Iran will use the bomb immediately when they get it is a lie.
So you ask a hypothetical question and people give concrete answers. Trolls go home.
Oh really? I think Trump’s positions in the middle east are hemorrhaging his Maga support all on his own. In fact, if he institutes a draft to send our children to Iran to be killed, any MAGA support will evaporate and his life won’t be worth a wooden nickel. And the third times the charm. Anyway, that’s what I think.
super dumb comment, “trump institutes a draft & sends young men to iran”, LOL. i back trump 100%.
The Israel situation is hurting Trump with MAGA people. I think he will find a way out of this. He has to tread a fine line, because of the huge power of Israel in DC.
When I see comments where the person says that Trump is in the same team as Democrats are, that it is one big uniparty, that the assassination attempt was fake, that it is all a big show to fool us…I feel like that person is paid ( by anti-Trump people whom ever they are ) to say those things.
The only problem with conspiracy theories is they’ve all come true. I’m a Vet and Trump is even a bigger liar than Biden ever was. Why? Because he claims he’s America First, when in fact, he’s Trump first and a Jew 2nd. What are you going to say when he institutes a draft to send our children to Iran?
I’m so tired of the left fear mongering what if’s …..Look lefty I’ve been listening to these threats death to America for 45 years. We can slap the sht our of Iran in a week you fear monger…Grows some balls. Or get off our soil.
“ALL” conspiracy theories? . . I don’t think so.
If Trump wasn’t America First, he wouldn’t be hated as much by the lunatics on the left and our corrupt status quo politicians. Also, Trump’s not going to institute a draft. Where do you come up with this nonsense?
There sure are paid commenters, who swarm everywhere, and others not paid join in.
