This will be a long thread. I’m not naming names and I won’t provide screenshots — for now. But I think it’s important to describe the tactics being used and how and why trolling and smear campaigns work. First, why am I a target? Because I’m very good at this and I have the temerity to tell the truth. The people attacking me are doing it for one of four reasons you should be aware of (MICE):
This happened to my tiny 3,000 follower account also. In about the same time frame as when Jim was tweeting about it, Mine was temporarily suspended for posting a meme of a swastika inside an elephant. Twitter told me I failed to include a content warning of all things.
Something I noticed when I tried to track the nonsense: I followed an overly pro- Flynn account and set notifications. That acct would send out lists of far right accounts to follow but also mixed in some that looked at quick glance just to be another follow thread but one contained my act info and coded talk I didn't understand. The comment threads tagged 50 accounts That's when I got swarmed by the far right on the meme.
A couple of seemingly left leaning large accounts hammered me for wanting Merrick to get on things. Those accounts seemed to imply that THIS is the psyop: for people to press Merrick to get a move on bc Russia wants us to dislike Merrick.
Anyway, I guess all this is to agree with you, Jim. Thanks for all you do.

Hi Jim. challenged Kassandra Seven with her assertions of lies and noticed she had a far right account @CLOWNWARS liking her asserted tweets. Update : looks like her tweets are now restricted so I cannot see..
I was only a tiny account with less than 2,000 followers. Because Jim RT my post about Madison Cawthorn, I was put into the cross hairs of Kassandra's group. I was given a 7 day suspension and DID NOT evade it in any form. When I returned, my account was permanently suspended for "ban evasion".
For someone who claims to be fighting disinfo, she spends an inordinate amount of time attacking Jim and BRAGGING about getting people suspended. (She deleted her brag after I was hit.)
With regards to the Twitter trolls working against you, my suggestion is to focus on drawing attention to their activities, before trying to reinstate you.
As you know the trouble is coming from one account right now.
Users should report her activity to @TwitterSupport @TwitterSafety:
@KassandraSeven is violating Twitter Abusive Behavior rules.
@KassandaraSeven’s tweets consist almost EXCLUSIVELY of defamatory and derogatory personal attacks on Jim Stewartson and a specific group of his affiliates.
No facts are cited nor any purpose is stated for these relentless, round-the-clock attacks on these individuals.
Though @KassandraSeven is clearly engaging in, as well as inciting others to engage in the targeted harassment of Jim Stewartson and his affiliates, the account has evaded @TwitterSafety scrutiny by ensuring its individual tweets do not expressly violate rules.
However the targeted harassment is patently obvious when looking at the sheer number, frequency and exclusive focus of @KassandaraSeven’s tweets that discredit, denigrate and defame Jim Stewartson and his affiliates.
In terms of Twitter rules, these activities are clearly an attempt to “silence someone else’s voice” and constitute “behavior (that) may …. result in… emotional hardship for the people involved”.
I think you’re spot on.
Tell me, would Geraldo Rivera best fit the LARP or validator category?

Looking forward to getting you back on twitter!
I guess if they would have called themselves something like Seer Seven Seven Seven it would have been too obvious.
