I hate to get into this, but I'm impressed by the ideological juggling. A conspiracy theory about minorities being anti-minority to weaken the majority by provoking them to anger against minorities?
I suppose I'm falling for the trolling right now.
EDIT: I assumed, perhaps wrongly, that OP was referring to individual "Africans and Indians" from the US. I suppose it does make some sense if we are talking about organised action from foreign powers.

- TylerE 10mo agoIt’s not trolling. When twitter turned on locations a few weeks ago many of the top maga accounts were revealed to be operating out of Russia or India. https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cj38m11218xo.amp https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cj38m11218xo.amp

- ceejayoz 10mo ago> I suppose it does make some sense if we are talking about organised action from foreign powers. It doesn't even have to be organized. Ragebait gets clicks. X pays out for engagement. (https://help.x.com/en/using-x/creator-revenue-sharing https://help.x.com/en/using-x/creator-revenue-sharing) The amounts are low by US standards, but nice pay by developing world standards. Thus, a cottage industry of fake accounts arises, without needing nation-scale organization behind it.
- oersted 10mo agoThat's a fair point, I appreciate being taught something new.
