US Mother of Terrorism

The Houthis Engage in Hashtag Warfare

Just recently, the Houthi militia in Yemen announce an astroturf effort to promote the hashtag #usmotherofterrorism.

This video is free. If you have $5 to support my work, I sure would appreciate it.

This effort started on Telegram here. And lead to a link to a google site that promoted the hashtags supporters should post which can be found here.

A PDF of the site is available here in case the site is taken down:

The use of hashtags is interesting because with the advent of AI, hashtags aren’t that useful in making content go viral, but they can be used to identify sympathizers.

Special thanks to Cyabra and Preston Stewart for the assist.
