Russia Black Lives Matter

Russia Black Lives Matter --- ===

‘‘Black Matters US’’ had accounts on Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, Google+, Tumblr and Paypal, according to the researchers. By linking posts across these platforms, the Russian operatives were able to solicit donations, organize real-world protests and rallies and direct online traffic to a website that the Russians also controlled.

The researchers found that when Facebook shut down the page in August 2016, a new one called ‘‘BM’’ soon appeared with more cultural and fewer political posts. It tracked closely to the content on the @blackmatterus Instagram account.

The report found operatives also began buying Google ads to promote the ‘‘BlackMatters US’’ website with provocative messages such as, ‘‘Cops kill black kids. Are you sure that your son won’t be the next?’’ The related Twitter account, meanwhile, complained about the suspension of the Facebook page, accusing the tech company of ‘‘supporting white supremacy.’’
