   "n part one of this investigation into how Kamala Harris’ presidential   
   campaign is deceptively manipulating online platforms, it was revealed   
   that the campaign is operating a Discord server that directs hordes of   
   volunteers to use their social media accounts to deceptively push   
   election propaganda.   
      
   The goal is to artificially manufacture consensus by making pro-Kamala   
   Harris messages on social media appear more popular than they are, and   
   it is often done in violation of the Terms of Service of the social   
   media platforms. In more extreme cases, they are encouraging people to   
   skirt election laws and using these “astroturfing” campaigns to spread   
   disinformation they think will help win the upcoming election.   
      
   Yesterday’s report documented how the Harris-Walz campaign has seen   
   great success in manipulating Reddit’s algorithm, but that isn’t the   
   only social media site they’re manipulating. The campaign has also   
   been targeting Elon Musk’s X, perhaps the most influential site for   
   political news. One particular goal, according to a user of the   
   Harris-Walz campaign Discord server, is to get campaign volunteers to   
   swarm the site and “block [community notes] we don’t like.” "
