Having had a "reply" from the "Sentiment Inspector ", I needed to respond that he? does not appear to understand how X algorithms work. (If you like x account, you may also like y).

Equally, the identical argument can be used to describe "The Mouse Army" (followers of 'Arkmedic', or Dr. Samir Saidi (or just 'Sam').A gynaecological oncologist with a PhD in genomics, hailing from Sydney.

Or those "Covid truthers", eg Ian Clayton of Durham "lawyer" I believe he titles himself, but of multiple FOI requests, taxi driver & pet sitter.

Or the HART group, who's leaked "chat logs" showed there was clear funding & coordination of the antivax movement.

Or Kate Shemirani "a toxic nurse in a toxic world", who apparently called for NHS staff to hang.

Or "Us for Them", a group purporting to be looking out for Children whilst wanting them infected with a BSL level 3 pathogen with a multitude of sequale.

Or The Great Barrington Declaration, the Brownstone Institute, UK MPs like Andrew Bridgen.

There are of course a plethora of more "minor " players, Adam Timperley (Big Papa Klaus), who "wrote songs" to try get engagement, Katherine MacBean of PHA, a group that shares unresearched "treatments", for flu, cancer and everything in between.

The Disinformation Dozen is a good place to start researching, and shows how much money the antiscience "health" advocates are making from the gullible & desperate.

Peter Hotez book, the Rise of Anti-science, & the putting of people like RFK Jr on a pedestal, is a warning to us all.

What the non existent "muttoncrew " are, is a variety of Dr's, Nurses, Scientists, Chemist's, immunologists, epidemiologists who have spent their lives working for the good & health of society. Anti science shouts & attacks, and genuine people (not an organised group) counter with evidence.

It's particularly galling if you spend your life helping people to be labelled as "paid organised groups funded by the Government".

"Those that fail to learn from history are doomed to repeat it".

One good thing from that poster: their dishonest complaints drew my attention to this excellent article.

Information is indeed flowing, though not in the direction you suggest. This comment appears to exemplify DARVO (Deny, Attack, Reverse Victim & Offender): a tactic often used to evade accountability. Trolls frequently employ DARVO when their behavior is exposed, as I discussed in my article on concern trolls and sealions: https://www.traces-of-therapy.com/p/under-the-bridge-and-under-the-skin-2

Your remark that "it's only a matter of time" aligns with the psychological defence known as 'delusions of future vindication,' which I covered in my article on griefers and rage baiters: https://www.traces-of-therapy.com/p/under-the-bridge-and-under-the-skin-1

Scrutiny of narratives is crucial, which is why the article includes documented evidence of harassment by Wolf Packs in the Case Studies. In contrast, your comment offers no substantiation for its claims against Counter Packs like NAFO and the Mutton Crew, relying solely on unsupported and defamatory assertions.

This comment space is for constructive, and ideally evidence-based dialogue. False and defamatory claims undermine that purpose and will lead to moderation if repeated.

How do you "know" they are organised groups? Where is your evidence?

If you are a virus denier I will not discuss. A friend's husband died of Covid. My husband was hospitalised with Chickenpox. 3 relatives died of Spanish flu within 3 days in 1919.

Spread your myths somewhere else.
