so if you guys remember horse ebooks it was a twitter bot that mashed poo poo from terrible ebooks together to make absurdist tweets that people enjoyed for a time.

this time one of its ilk "predicted" the paris terror attacks and its getting a bunch of conspiracy folks all agitated.

warning the site quoted below has extra fukken rude autoplay ads:

http://metro.co.uk/2015/11/17/conspiracy-theorists-are-freaking-out-because-a-twitter-spambot-predicted-paris-attacks-5506741/ posted:

The entire world has been reeling since the awful attacks on Paris on Friday night.
But one particular Twitter spambot account appeared to predict the multiple terror attacks, days before they actually occurred.
On the 11th of November – two days before France’s capital was targeted – @PzBooks tweeted: ‘BREAKING: Death toll from Paris terror attack rises to at least 120 with 270 others injured.’
And people are, understandably, pretty freaked out about the tweet.
Plenty of people took the Twitter to voice their concerns, with some even labelling it a ‘false flag’ – a term used by conspiracy theorists for an act they think has been staged by a government or other authority.

But there’s actually a reasonable explanation (which is a lot less terrifying than governments staging their own terror attacks).
The @PZBooks account is a spambot that regurgitates actual news from @PZF – which is an actual breaking news account.
@PZBooks appears to have taken two official @PZF breaking news tweets – one dating back to January’s Charlie Hebdo attack in Paris and the other from an attack on a Nigerian mosque.
The account has scrambled the events and death toll together to create the alarming ‘prediction’.

here's the tweet in question



its p hosed up imo

but i wish buzzfeed didn't buy horse_ebooks and run it into the ground too.

i like doing polls so i added a poll for this. i may still be typing this ol boy out as you read this.

this is the fallacy I bring up to some of these tinfoil condom-wearing morons and they still think I'm some kind of disinfo agent/paid shill

anyone who disagrees with conspiracy theorists are always referred to as shills in order to silence dissent

I guess you could say it's a conspiracy to enforce tinfoil conformity :agesilaus:

they're just basket cases who are unable/unwilling to cope with how hosed up and out of control and chaotic the world really is

so naturally they cling to the idea that there's some big evil arch-authority behind literally every drat thing that happens

and if you point out how dumb that is then obviously YOU'RE ONE OF THEM, MAN

op the cia and nsa take out their plans from tv shows and terrible books so they seem implausible

for example the 9/11 plot was hatched after watching the x files conspiracy theory spin off and this was planned to disrupt the democratic debates because people just like before ww1 are getting too uppity about being hosed in rear end by rich oligarchs
