In looking at this tweet's replies, I have stumbled down a rabbit hole that has led to me discovering a community of Twitter bot accounts that are all interacting with each other. It's the biggest evidence towards Dead Internet Theory. A thread. 🧵

Let's start with this account, calliecake. They joined in November 2008. Out of their 335 posts, only 11 of them are not replies. 1 was posted on December 28, 2023; the other 10 were all posted on December 3, 2023. They're also not following anyone, but have 1,361 followers.

In my entire life, I've never, EVER seen or hears of something - anything - like this before. Elon didn't get rid of the bots - he merely enabled them even more. Shit like this never happened before him. This website is fucked, man.

Their Replies tab only shows them responding to tweets that are popular. Typically, it's ones about family members dying, pets, or pets dying, but other stuff shows up there. Notice how some of the replies are in quotation marks. Feels very botty...

Already, things are quite... odd. The tweets made on the 3rd all have no likes, but 9-18 replies. And they're all cut off, too. Not at 280 characters like you might expect, though; it's about 20 short. Even then, it wouldn't matter since these are verified accounts!

Let's look at the replies, then... Wait, what? The original tweet is in English, but all of the replies are in... Vietnamese. And using the translate feature, they don't even have anything to do with the tweet. How'd we gi from dogs to robotics? This'll be important later.

How about the tweet from the 28th, then? Well, it's got 8 replies and 4 likes, and all of the replies are in English (and actually relate to the tweet,) but all feel very botted. What if we looked at one of the accounts in the replies?

Firstly, a person or group of people, likely Vietnamese, is turning mostly abandoned, decade old Twitter accounts into bot accounts. How they're getting these accounts is unknown; could be hacking or buying them. And some are being created fresh, like Mariner Eugene.

These bots are then rigged up to ChatGPT to make replies. ChatGPT can interpret text and (if GPT 4.0) images, but NOT videos. Therefore, when scraping a tweet to make a response to a video, it only sees the text part. And if there is no text, it gets confused and makes shit up.

Of course, Twitter eventually catches on - like with silviapaolacast. But there's a back-up plan in place. By having the bots all interact with each other, they can appear more legitimate. "See, we're not just spamming in replies, we do other stuff, too!"

Here's Mariner Eugene. Joined September 2023, has one of those suggested handles twitter gives you, and post about cars. Weirdly, they repost ads for cars while also sticking in hashtags that were trending at the time. Matthew Perry died on October 28.

Second, most of these accounts are have Twitter Blue and are replying to incredibly popular posts in the most inane ways, likely to farm engagement and money. One account barely makes anything from tweet monetization - but if you have several, you can make a lot more.

And then, you find their earliest tweet: March 3, 2010. And it's completely different from everything else they've posted. A genuinely human post. But then... nothing, until it rose like a sleeper agent on December 3, 2023. 13 years later.

Their regular tweets are even more interesting. They're all in Vietnamese! ...until you get to the very bottom. Then you see 3 tweets: two from 7/3/2009, and one from 7/5/2009. All 3 of them are in Chinese. Then... nothing, until 1/6/2024, where they return but speak Vietnamese.

Alright, so let's go back to square one. Here's another reply from the cat video. liuxiaoyan joined in July 2009, and their replies tab is a lot less "themed" - they only reply to popular posts, regardless of content. Posts with 5-6 digit like counts.

This one particularly caught my eye. What made them think this had anything to do with Monday's? Most of the other times, it at says something related to the photo or video, but this time it's really confused. (I'll come back to this point, so keep it in the back of your head.)

I'm starting to notice a pattern. Another account, from the original video. Blair Peyton Walls. Joined March 2010. Their bio is... weird. All of the other accounts lacked a bio completely. Replies are as you expect: only under popular tweets and tweets about pets.

To everyone talking about how it's actually "dead twitter theory": I agree with you completely. However, "dead internet theory" is a more recognizable term right now, and I used it to draw more attention to this issue, hoping that it would make people read the whole thread.

Since December 6, 2023, this account has been talking about crypto and doesn't get cut off like calliecake did. They also get noticeably fewer interactions than the other accounts. On the December 3 and 4, however, they posted a couple random memes instead.

Their tweets are getting cut off, just like calliecake! And once again, it's happening at the 260 character mark, for some reason. But it's a verified account, they should theoretically be able to post longer than normal tweets!

As for self-promo, I'm currently writing an alternate history scenario where Nintendo and Philips team up in 1987 before Sony and the SNES-CD is produced. Currently, Act I is finished, and goes from 1987-1991. It'd mean a lot to me if you checked it out.
