UPDATE: Deleted the Mary Tiles Texas posts because apparently she is real and was having fun with the Russia claim. Our apologies to Ms. Texas and the entire Texas family.

It's one thing to know that a good chunk of Twitter accounts are fake, it's quite another to see it with your own eyes. Twitter began gradually rolling out the nation of origin feature starting November 11. Initially, only the account owner could see it. This morning, a number of users got the ability to view other accounts.

And it's not pretty. Foreign governments, greedy click farmers and other assorted lowlifes have been revealed. The accounts have often had dead giveaways like "do you agree? yes or no" to get you to engage, one hundred thousand followers for an account started a month or two ago, big breasted AI women with American flag bikinis [ed. this one was ok], and of course, monomaniacal antisemitic and anti-Israel accounts.

Here's just a few. In the coming weeks this will be even more interesting.

Sadly, we've seen real American who have fallen for the psyops.

Candace Owens and Nick Fuentes have bot armies signal boosting them? Color us shocked!

Yes, even pro MAGA and NeverTrump.

Seems like every Tom, Dinesh and Hassan is in on the game.

This author asks you to kindly be careful out there. These accounts are maliciously trying to destroy our country, our parties even our relationships - as if simply scamming you for your extended warranties wasn't bad enough. There's a great deal of good and fun to be had on Twitter, just avoid the pitfalls.
