It's such a funny way to destroy your own business; I mostly follow somewhat niche military / geopolitical discussion, and the top ~10 replies are usually from OnlyFans creators jumping in with...whatever, the content of the Tweets is clearly not their point. I still find it funny enough to not care but it is a comically bad experience.

Is it OF people replying specifically to military/geopolitical threads (and if so, in ways that at least act relevant or just off-topic spamming?), or is it just their posts getting shoved to the top of the feed because they paid?


They respond with relevant (if naive) content; I'm not sure if it's GPT-4 or genuine opinions and comments.

Even in the improbable non-spam explanation that they are sincerely interested and responding to the content, it is hilarious how they are consistently the featured content in an area that they clearly have no expertise in.

The threads, in order, are typically like:

- post by professional military analyst with 30 years of experience

- 10 replies by OF creators that pay for Blue

- 100 replies by other analysts and military hobbyists that didn't pay for Blue


I use twitter only for the Deep Learning research folks.

Getting bombarded by Onlyfans types and crypto types has increased manyfold in the last few months.
