Mike Cernovich accounts for 3% of the rest.

Cernovich, the guy who started out as an internet pick-up artist then in 2016 suddenly changed gears and started considering himself to be some expert political analyst.

This isn't even accounting for Dupe accounts.

It's like any "popular" online game.

Take, League of legends, they will say they have 70 of million actual users, with 12 million daily players.

What that really is, is 10 Million basement dwelling neckbeard incels logging into their 7 accounts daily to troll gold elo and below. Making damn sure that when you are doing your placements you ain't going 10-0, you are going 6-4 and their ain't a damn thing your probably D1 cs like a champ ass is gonna do about it!

Sorry... flashbacks...

This does feed into the narrative that Twitter's investment "metrics" are fabricated and the stock is beyond overvalued.

Whenever I see this I wonder who in the world is accurately valued.

Valuations happen by every person unqualified to determine such a thing.

Assuming rational actors is the biggest scam of economics, serving mostly to keep the various gambling and pension siphoning activities going.

I have zero interest in games but I can actually confirm that Mainland China had untold millions of these kids on 'LOL' with uncountable multiple accounts. They'd often be showing me something and I noticed many many times they'd stop and sign out then sign back into a different account. I didn't actually know why that is but as you said it might be.. what, they get some gold coins with one character and who knows. They had every scheme in the world and plenty had access to a credit card whereby they'd purchase some powers. It was madness, it was like every single male under the age of 30 and they played that games 20 hours a day somehow. Insane.

I thought being a "seduction expert" would meant he sounded a little more manly than a balloon slowly losing air. I'd never listened to him before seeing him in some documentary and laughed my ass off when he popped up.

His first big break was grifting for gamergate.

He did get antifa to support NAMBLA though. Other then that, he caved in record time. Fuck him.

Or Alex Berenson with his 49 tweet threads about how large a hoax COVID is.

I give that guy a pass and a thumbs up because he used to be a major liberal who worked for NYT. Will take whatever we can get

You ever read his John Wells Series? I really like Alex, I wasn’t shitting on him but he puts out big tweets.

Cernovich is a little bitch opportunist.
