It almost seems forced that they are going viral on social media. Only the fake engagement accounts are posting them as if they're popular. I'm also seeing accounts post merch of these viral females. This makes me hate social media even more. I thought it wasn't possible. Everything seems so artificial because Twitter is now full of people trying to get Elon Musk's ad dollars.

It's a mixture of corpo psyops, glowie psyops and clout chasers who know how the algorithms work so they game it as much as possible. It's also why all of them use the same format and editing style now and it's incredibly annoying. I know I bitched about how much worse things were going to get online as these people spread their shit everywhere but it looks like they're kicking things off earnestly in summer.
I should probably write up a thread about this sort of thing and we can go into autistic amounts of detail on why this keeps happening. Sometimes it's not necessarily being bumped up by special interests, sometime it's just people being insufferable click-bait artists. Even by my own standards I freely admit I think I underestimated just how bad it was going to be because they're even going after small communities like this one with their bullshit and no offence to people here I just wouldn't have considered sites like communities.win worth it.
By the way, Valve did this with steam for awhile and I know youtube did it a bit where they were trying to promote 'black creators' with astroturfing. That was definitely a thing, so it could well be maybe they're trying to do women this time around.
many of them are actual paid agents of a special interest group. many times they're even being paid by foreign agents to run their social media campaigns. actual, honest to God subversive spies that should probably be jailed for life. the fact that many of them are too dumb to know who they're working for or what's going on doesn't make it any better.
