Addendum this shows a screen-shot from the following article, which selectively shows the beginning of the article without proving any explanation of how this might come to pass. This is a salient, subsequent point that perhaps provides a more accurate indication of the article's general tenor: #MagazineNewsweekJocelynGrzeszczak "Byrd acknowledged in his book that his Klan membership has 'emerged throughout my life to haunt and embarrass me and has taught me in a very graphic way what one major mistake can do to one's life, career, and reputation.' ... James Tolbert, president of the West Virginia Chapter of the NAACP in 2005, told the Post that Byrd overcame his past by slowly embracing more progressive social views and owning up to his mistakes. 'I know now I was wrong. Intolerance had no place in America. I apologized a thousand times...and I don't mind apologizing over and over again,' Byrd said in 2005. 'I can't erase what happened.'"https://www.newsweek.com/joe-biden-giving-eulogy-kkk-recruiter-robert-byrd-resurfaces-after-trump-doesnt-condemn-white-1535776 #OrgClassifPPUSDemocraticPartyPOTUSJoeBiden #OrgClassifPPUSDemocraticPartyRobertByrd #OrgUSNtlAssocForTheAdvancementOfColoredPeopleNAACPJamesTolbert

Supplementary #NewspaperUSBrdshtTheWashingtonPostCraigTimberg "Today's digital soapboxes are little like the old-fashioned kind. Researchers have documented the power of automation technology to magnify some points of view while drowning out others. Much of that research has focused on 'bots,' accounts programmed to follow instructions, such as automatically replying to tweets from other accounts. But Sobieski exemplifies the growing popularity of a variation, called 'cyborgs,' that mix human creativity and initiative with a computer's relentless speed, allowing their views to gain audience while sidestepping the traditional gatekeepers of news and commentary. Sobieski's two accounts, for example, tweet more than 1,000 times a day using 'schedulers' that work through stacks of his own pre-written posts in repetitive loops. With retweets and other forms of sharing, these posts reach the feeds of millions of other accounts, including those of such conservative luminaries as Fox News's Sean Hannity, GOP strategist Karl Rove and Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Tex.), according to researcher Jonathan Albright. 'It's like a giant megaphone,' said Albright, an assistant professor of media analytics at Elon University, in North Carolina, whose research singled out Sobieski's accounts as having unusual reach. When Albright studied the most prolific Twitter accounts during the final two weeks of the election, he found that all of the top 20 appeared to support the eventual winner, Donald Trump. Among accounts using major pro-Trump hashtags such as 'MAGA,' for 'Make America Great Again,' two of the top three belonged to Sobieski." https://www.washingtonpost.com/business/economy/as-a-conservative-twitter-user-sleeps-his-account-is-hard-at-work/2017/02/05/18d5a532-df31-11e6-918c-99ede3c8cafa_story.html #BrandTechSocialMediaXFKATwitterBotClickFarm #BrandTechSocialMediaXFKATwitterCyborg #NMUSFOXFNCSeanHannity #IRLPoliticalStrategistKarlRove #OrgClassifPPUSRepublicanPartyGOPTedCruz #EDUUSColumbiaUniversityJonathanAlbright https://towcenter.columbia.edu/content/jonathan-albright

Context #WebsiteSnopes "Attesting to the growing influence of the KKK in American politics at the time, a platform plank favored by Smith supporters that would have condemned the Klan by name went down to defeat after a raucous debate that degenerated into fisticuffs. On the 103rd ballot, the delegates finally nominated a dark-horse candidate named John W. Davis, who, in contrast to his GOP counterpart, Calvin Coolidge, would take a strong stand against the KKK during the presidential campaign. Coolidge won the election by a landslide. Despite the fact that the Klan had sunk its tendrils just as deeply into Republican Party politics (an anti-KKK platform plank similar to the one rejected by Democrats met the same fate at that year's Republican convention), the extent of the group's supposed control over the 1924 Democratic convention has come to be exaggerated to legendary proportions. That is in large part thanks to the efforts of social media propagandists bent on tarring Democrats in particular with the legacy of the Klan's religious bigotry, xenophobia, and racism."

@BrynleeArnst [name pseudonymized] [ontology] [09]: #Woke #political leaders in #Virginia tear down yet another statue to a well-known past leader in the state.
This time it was former Governor and US Senator Harry F. Byrd Sr., a staunch segregationist.
Oh, by-the-way, Byrd was a #Democrat. [URL redacted]

@CamrynGowder [name pseudonymized] [ontology] [03]: #Woke Dems in #Charlotte have officially removed the statues of Confederate Robert E. Lee and "Stonewall" Jackson, yet certified #Klan recruiter and #Democrat Sen. Robert Byrd's name still adorns dozens of buildings and remains immune from their selective purge.
