I’m in Munich and people keep asking me to decode Vance’s speech. OK: In Vance English “free speech” means “Let Musk run your elections” and “democracy” means “let Russia run your elections.” Now move on. 2025 is about what Europeans do, not what Americans say.

Update! Vacation incoming. Setting up Macbook today to monitor as needed while away. Should be able to work on backlog a bit: let the dust settle on recent efforts, while doing some low-risk manual labeling. Start with accounts where automated and manual reports are present, then manual.

Labeling "USAID color rev*lution" nonsense spreaders tests process's effectiveness. ⚠️reported but not reviewed ✅reviewed & labeled src:both/src:manual/src:auto indicates report source: real-time filters, or user. "Both' -> high value. For reference, platform has one of this list as "needs-review".

Keep eyes on for this "USAID color revolution" trope, direct from the musk/rus disinfo nexus, serving the goals of both. A search in the moderation tool shows it's already being pushed on bsky. I've updated the existing nonsense filters accordingly with a new contingent match on "USAID".
