Oh great. Here we go again. Just left all this BS on X. Hopefully they will be easy to spot.

getyourfoxyback.bsky.social•21 days ago

At least the block works here

mahaloka.bsky.social•21 days ago

I have always suspected Elon is behind the recent Russian bot farm invasions in the U.S.

nataliew3104.bsky.social•20 days ago

I’m trying to vet all. I’m sure there are a few I unknowingly followed/back

nataliew3104.bsky.social•21 days ago

I deputy. Thanks Foxy and hope you are feeling better.

nataliew3104.bsky.social•21 days ago

I hate iPhone spell check.

getyourfoxyback.bsky.social•21 days ago

Thanks, Natalie a little bit

nataliew3104.bsky.social•21 days ago

Great.

epilepsy.bsky.social•21 days ago

✊We know their modus operandi.

getyourfoxyback.bsky.social•21 days ago

Some have a more difficult time identifying the fake account accounts
So we must stick together and help each other

samtoyou.bsky.social•21 days ago

I've noticed this already with bots, same response to different posts

captainmaiel.bsky.social•20 days ago

Start making lists! We can fight them!

panda-news.bsky.social•21 days ago

Somebody give the reporters at Yahoo a cookie, it only took them a couple of months to figure it out lol

😆😆😆😆😆

xiomara55.bsky.social•21 days ago

Of course it is important to vet every single account.

magjustvibes.bsky.social•21 days ago

I’m kinda the worst at this, I’ll try to look out but also if you see any of these on my list: PLEASE LET ME KNOW.😭❤️

stepintoknowing.bsky.social•21 days ago

Same! Let me know too 🤗

targhair.bsky.social•21 days ago

Me too I’m old and really stupid when it comes to this

getyourfoxyback.bsky.social•21 days ago

Will do!

hellesbellz.bsky.social•21 days ago

I always check their posts and replies.

nataliekit.bsky.social•21 days ago

💯💥 Absolutely - so important. I check everyone. It takes time. It's so weird to see no bio & those who have no posts yet seem to have followers. Also DM's right away is a big NO for me.

emcq24.bsky.social•21 days ago

Thanks for sharing, Foxy.

We should have given Ukraine the ability to hit Russian servers inside Moscow to stop Putin spreading chaos, destruction and misinformation.

uniongrl.bsky.social•20 days ago

Thank you for sharing this Foxy!! 🦋

saintorchid.bsky.social•21 days ago

Thanks @getyourfoxyback.bsky.social , reposting!

stepintoknowing.bsky.social•21 days ago

I see accounts that “appear” to be fake or maybe bot accounts off and on. I was blocking in the beginning but stopped until I can observe more because some of the new accounts might appear fake, etc.

laurieagard.bsky.social•21 days ago

Thank you!

orlisadeschene.bsky.social•21 days ago

Indeed inform all

gnomeledy2.bsky.social•21 days ago

I vet every account. I am surprised at some who follow accounts that I block.
I have noticed if I alert others so they can decide if they want to follow them or not, I have been blocked by people Idk. It's weird.
It will take me a long time to vet all these new follows, but I'll feel better.

aneshajoy.bsky.social•21 days ago

Subscribe to @ab4n-labeler.bsky.social and dis-info and matryoshka posts will be labeled as such!

la-perlanera.bsky.social•21 days ago

Thank you Foxy!!✌🏼💙

arlie.bsky.social•21 days ago

Staying vigilant!

soberdeaconess.bsky.social•21 days ago

Yes! Thank you, Foxy. I get, but I know I miss things. 😢
Helping each other is the way we build strong!

realitista.bsky.social•21 days ago

I've found a couple. Not sure what to do with them to get them on one of the major lists.

lightwalker67.bsky.social•21 days ago

I get notifications that people have followed me, and I look at their profile, 99% are from women wearing sexy clothes and have zero posts, I followed back a couple of times and they want to strike up conversation on DM which is all one way…asking lots of personal questions about me but giving none

winternightz.bsky.social•21 days ago

Those are bots, just block them and move on with your day~

trashycappy.bsky.social•21 days ago

I got a flush if new followers early on from a List, but it’s been taking forever to go through them and carefully follow or block.

rudybuick.bsky.social•21 days ago

Well worth it.

michaelomorah.bsky.social•21 days ago

Don’t engage the trolls and bots! Block them block them block them!

jbatterson7.bsky.social•20 days ago

Well definitely would not follow anything that casts Russia in a favorable light.

freyalux.bsky.social•21 days ago

That’s why it’s important to 🚫 any shady profiles and report the obvious ones! 💯💪💪

winecave.bsky.social•21 days ago

I noticed some questionable accounts following me. Looks like my only option is to block them?

beththephotog.bsky.social•21 days ago

godemills.bsky.social•21 days ago

Thank you, Foxy. And we all need to be extra vigilant when putting together a starter pack.

kd7qk.bsky.social•21 days ago

Thank you Foxy.

kiareeves.bsky.social•21 days ago

Thanks for sharing🙏🏾

azdesertrat.com•21 days ago

Wondered if/when that would happen here. Bloody hell. Scary af. Thank ya for sharing this.

llblue.bsky.social•21 days ago

Not sure if I am more worried about Elon invading 🦋 than Russia.

getyourfoxyback.bsky.social•21 days ago

I think I’m more worried about Elon right now

llblue.bsky.social•21 days ago

There’s currently no safe space in America anymore, with fascists taking over.

freddierose.bsky.social•21 days ago

Thanks for the heads up, Foxy 👍

debosaurusrex.bsky.social•21 days ago

Elizabeth warren had like 20 accounts w blue checkmarks yesterday

getyourfoxyback.bsky.social•21 days ago

adamhead.bsky.social•21 days ago

Oh great! Why does that mean?

dustyk504.bsky.social•21 days ago

I'm surprised it took so long.

mrsblocking.bsky.social•21 days ago

They've been here, but frw & outed!

hundpappa.bsky.social•21 days ago

I'm now following @antibot4navalny.bsky.social. 🌊🇺🇸🌊

hundpappa.bsky.social•21 days ago

Thanks for the heads up! I'll keep my eyes peeled!🌊🇺🇸🌊

edwardtyler.bsky.social•21 days ago

Is there any other information as to what to look out for? The article was a bit vague, and at least from this vantage point, we seem to be doing pretty well and finding and blocking.

grammaholly.bsky.social•21 days ago

They pretend to be liberal/progressive then post shit like, well there's nothing we can do until midterms. They try to undermine, or argue. Also, bad grammar and spelling.

edwardtyler.bsky.social•21 days ago

Gotcha. Thanks.

To, two, too
Their, there, they’re
Your, you’re

Sometimes, the intricacies of English are our friends.

grammaholly.bsky.social•21 days ago
