⚠️Please be advised there are inauthentic accounts pretending to be Warren and Sanders supporters, it appears they are attempting to inflame tensions between the two camps. I will release a report soon, but please be cautious when you see an account tweeting questionable content.

⚠️We are seeing the same tactics used against Kamala Harris now being used against Elizabeth Warren. For months trollbots fueled the "Kamala is a cop and a slut" narrative, and now we are seeing trollbots spreading "Warren is a snake."

And trying, with some success, to stir trouble amongst Democrats, period. All of the internets, including here. They're pretending to be Warren, Sanders, and Biden supporters, and probably Mayor Pete, too. If you don't understand or believe that, then you are deluding yourself. Why would they only play one or two side of the game when they can pit all sides against each other?
