Maris Racal Trolled Online? BoyCottMarisRacal Becomes #1 Trending In PH Twitter
BOYCOTTMARISRACAL – Kapamilya actress Maris Racal has faced harsh criticisms for voicing her opinion on the government online.
The online world can be so toxic especially towards people who have a high following. This is what happened to Maris Racal after she criticized the government.
The actress also posted “Remove your rose colored glasses, bansa natin duguan na”. Additionally, she also said: “Positive na sukang suka na sa government. Good people are outnumbered”.
However, this didn’t sit well with the Pro-Duterte netizens. Like a mob on the way to Frankenstein’s castle, they picked up torches to burn her down.
But, if you look closely at some of the users that use the hashtag “BoyCottMarisRacal”, you would see that the accounts are actually new and mostly have zero followers and followings.
Previously, Twitter had already suspended hundreds of Pro-Duterte accounts for spam and manufactured content. Additionally, they were also flagged for being bots as the accounts were new and had no followers.
This may be the case for Maris. Although there are actual real accounts, the majority of new posts about her seem to be fabricated. Here are just some of the accounts:
Also, if you take a closer look at their accounts, all of them have “bot-like” properties such as numbers on their tag. More importantly, these accounts were also made in late March and early April.
As you could see, these accounts were just created with their first tweets made just minutes ago. Apparently, there are still a whole slew of trolls on Twitter popping up even after the purge.
