T.H.U.G Interacts Too Much With Criminals
A Series On Misinformation, Disinformation and Subterfuge
This was very interesting.
We’ll just assume that serial harasser Susan Portnoy deleted her tweets as per usual, factually reported in the Daily Beast after verification for over 100K tweets.
There are a load of parts we simply do not know about until we know them, such as who are the actual players behind all of the accounts nor who all the interconnected companies are. This could be one of those times, especially given what on the surface appears to be a confession of conspiring with, so I document it.
The mutuals are annoying replete with pink similarly looking accounts.
There are plenty of periphery people including this former State legislator pulled into criminal harassment campaigns. Those generally do not go all-caps saying “BECAUSE WE ALL HAD TO DEAL WITH THIS UNHINGED BLOG.”
Saying so implies that they are a central figure and not a random account that shows up on the outer band of a Chirpty interaction charts. Do they engage in ableist slurs similar to peers?
Check.
Do they peddle in falsehoods AND more ableist slurs?
Double check.
The GamerGate style suicide trolling, meant to take a dig at a target’s emotional well-being, is a classic tactic of informational warfare pushed so heavily by 8Chan and suicide trolling pioneer, Fred Brennan.
This probable legacy verified account isn’t that difficult to prove ownership as Remi Barrette and Susan Portnoy were.
Because mutuals that weren’t Single Purpose Hate Accounts were other state legislators, it is safe to say this ableist troll is Stephanie Yeager.
Unlike the criminals she is clearly protecting that abused my daughter’s image sexually, I don’t see any evidence of her being involved in a clear chargeable criminal act on this specific account.
I’ll note how uncharacteristic it is to see someone who sits on a Mental Health Advisory board engaged in mental health attacks.
I am going to assume this person doesn’t read my work, is caught up in the group’s antics and isn’t fully aware she has been manipulated by a group conducting malign influence campaigns steering people’s behavior.
If that is the case, this is likely the only time I document her account engaged in ableism.
Failed PR exec? Hmmm....
