The GrokAI has given me the keys to breaking out of account purgatory.
1) Don't post as much.
2) Don't retweet as much.
3) Don't use emojis so much.
I can see what @elonmusk and @nikitabier were thinking...
"Identify the behavior of spam accounts, and reduce the weight in the algorithm of certain types of post to reduce the amplification of real humans."
Honorable pursuit, but horribly executed. Your premise missed one glaring and massive truth...
The behavior the bot accounts were most mimicking was humans. That's why the accounts were effective. So rather than address the problem some other way, you quite literally targeted the most innate and natural posting style for 99% of your users.
Then... you decided it was easier to reprogram the entire internet on how to use, interact, and participate in the global conversation by having them behave the way your AI algorithm prefers.
Fail. Fail. Fail.
I'm not saying I know the answer to your problem, but this ain't it.
@elonmusk I'm begging you to hire actual popular, charismatic, non-nerd staff.
Why?
You have socially inept, introvert, awkward geniuses training the algorithm for SOCIAL MEDIA. Let me repeat... SOCIAL MEDIA.
Respectfully, what do mega big brain nerds know about healthy, nuanced, social interaction and popular trends?
The answer is "nothing."
...and the longer this goes on, the worse it gets.
You aren't eliminating bots from the platform, you're simply training human beings to behave more like bots and it's staring you right in the face.
I've been here 18 years. My brain is obnoxiously programmed to recognize patterns (which is why I'm good at politics and cultural shifts). This algorithm is hands down the worst one I've ever seen utilized.
I am a super fan. Please do not take offense to what I absolutely know is the truth.
Why am I so passionate and willing to burn all of my political capital for the sake of our nation’s veterans and restoring the VA?
Let me explain…
The VA is a foundational piece of the American government puzzle, and not many realize it. Much like the FBI and DOJ are key pillars holding up our democracy, the VA represents widespread trust in our Republic as a whole in a way that no other agency does.
When the Department of War asks for $1.5 trillion in defense spending, the request is predicated on making America’s military the most elite, revered, feared, and consequential force on planet Earth. The contract essentially says: “If you give us these hard-earned tax dollars, we will use them to revolutionize our military and take care of service members.”
It’s a reasonable ask so long as the second half of the question gets answered: “If we give you all this money for war efforts, what promises can you make for veterans who suffer debilitating injuries as a result of their service?”
As of right now, the Department of War, Congress, and the VA can’t answer that question because the care for those who sacrificed is terrible. Furthermore, they’re asked to fight their own government upon returning home just to receive the necessary care for a normal life after injury.
This will not fly any longer. @SecVetAffairs Collins is failing the DOW, the President, Congress, the American voter, and most importantly, veterans who are suffering. If we’re to have beautiful, safe cities, an elite military, a thriving manufacturing base, and trust in our institutions, reforming the VA must be at the absolute top of the priority list.
Look at what the President and Director Patel have done with the FBI in just 18 short months for an example of the reverberating effect of competent leadership and ambitious, unrelenting goals.
A 126-year low in violent crimes across America.
I will pound the table for veterans until this is done and bring it up in every conversation I have with President Trump going forward.
I am deeply appalled and angry to see “Firework” used on the @WhiteHouse TikTok account as a backing track for video footage of military strikes. I did not approve this, I was not asked, and I absolutely do not condone it.
I wrote this song to be an anthem of hope, healing, and inner strength for people going through their darkest personal moments. To see a message of self-worth and upliftment weaponized to soundtrack destruction and violence is a complete violation of everything my song stands for.
My music is for bringing people together, not celebrating warfare.
A pantomine horse isn’t a horse.
An open secret isn’t a secret.
A hot dog isn’t a dog.
A shrinking violet isn’t a violet.
Crow’s feet aren’t feet.
Fair game’s not a game.
Trans women aren’t women.
VA Secretary Collins leadership failure isn't just going to screw Veterans, it's also going to screw Republicans across America.
How?
@DanSullivan_AK is up for re-election in the Senate. He's a veteran and the race is extremely tight.
If Vets dont turn out and vote, he loses.
🇺🇸TRUST TRUMP🇺🇸
He only stops when he's won. You're getting your country, culture, and elections back.
Lock-in. Research. Spread the word.
The best is yet to come!

Scam compounds are modern-day criminal enterprises built to steal from Americans, launder money, and exploit trafficked workers.
The FBI led the charge to take down Prince Group in Cambodia and Operation Sand Dollar in Dubai, shutting down more than $8 billion in fraud, freeing nearly 2,000 trafficked workers, and arresting nearly 300 people.
