Unimaginative Musician or Kremlin Propagandist? You Decide!
Meet @1ChordWonder. This tweet is one of the better examples of Kremlin agitprop I've seen on Twitter. Can you spot all the propaganda techniques being used?
Here's @1ChordWonder's tweet schedule for the past month. The variance is interesting. What does this account tweet about?
Some familiar themes here, and some new ones. Pizzagate is prominent. "realsheriffjoe" is the Twitter handle of former Arizona sheriff Joe Arpaio.
Some examples of @1ChordWonder's Pizzagate tweets. Voat, the site linked in the bottom tweet, is a Reddit clone where communities that are banned from Reddit (such as the Pizzagate forum) frequently turn up.
Here are examples of @1ChordWonder's tweets about Joe Arpaio. Note the inconsistency between the old tweets and those posted after Arpaio was pardoned. I was unable to find an explanation of this change of heart regarding the disgraced ex-sheriff. #AltWankers
Now for the good part. @1ChordWonder is very fond of Vladimir Putin and not shy about saying so. Here are 16 example tweets; there are quite a few more.
Finally, here are the top 10 media websites linked by @1ChordWonder. Russia Today is the most prominent; Wikileaks and various right-wing media sites make up the majority of the remainder.
Amusing footnote: @1ChordWonder retweeted my tweet showing a bunch of examples of his pro-Putin tweets before blocking me.
