"SNIP....

New York (CNN Business)Twitter suspended an account on Monday afternoon that helped spread a controversial encounter between a Native American elder and a group of high school students wearing Make America Great Again hats.

The account claimed to belong to a California schoolteacher. Its profile photo was not of a schoolteacher, but of a blogger based in Brazil, CNN Business found. Twitter suspended the account soon after CNN Business asked about it.

The account, with the username @2020fight, was set up in December 2016 and appeared to be the tweets of a woman named Talia living in California. "Teacher & Advocate. Fighting for 2020," its Twitter bio read. Since the beginning of this year, the account had tweeted on average 130 times a day and had more than 40,000 followers.

Late on Friday, the account posted a minute-long video showing the now-iconic confrontation between a Native American elder and the high school students, with the caption, "This MAGA loser gleefully bothering a Native American protester at the Indigenous Peoples March."

.....SNIP"

1. This doesn't seem good.

2. We're we set up on the left? Doesn't bode well for the future if people

are going to go to great lengths to **** us up. I've lived it. It is not fun. Hard on your health.

4. Russia hit the left first. Keystone XL and the anti-TPP protests were both Russian active measures

Putin is willing to use all parts of the US political spectrum.

5. I don't think they say if it is a left or right false flag attack. It could have

been catnip to embarass the left. Keep your options for possibilities open.

9. Well, you could ask who benefited

and if you consider that it took the focus off the shutdown, also off the 3 Dem presidential campaign announcements, it benefited Trump and the wingers. Then again there are so many players running around on social media it's hard to say who's faking what.

11. Yes. We don't know.

3. Vlad gets his money's worth (nt)

6. 130 tweets a day is a lot for a working teacher.

It's a lot for anybody. Hmm . . .

7. I see nothing wrong with spreading information about the incident.

10. "... that helped spread..."

Operative words.

So what? There were hundreds of other legitimate sources (some of them news sources) who were also posting multiple videos of the incident.

If the videos started with this account or this account were responsible for the majority of the event's promulgation, I would believe it was a set up.

But, IT WASN'T!

This article is "bothsiderism" and possibly "false-flag-calling" at it's worst.
