THE GREAT X HOAX: Millions of Americans Duped by Thousands of Fake ‘Activists’ Running Propaganda from Iran, Pakistan & Bangladesh

18

A bombshell revelation is rocking X today — one that exposes a vast, coordinated foreign influence operation masquerading as “grassroots American activism.” For years, millions of Americans unknowingly engaged with political content that was not American at all, but manufactured abroad by troll farms, foreign propagandists, and anonymous operators posing as U.S. citizens.

A new X feature reveals that accounts posing as Gazan ‘victims’, American activists, MAGA — amplified by major newsrooms like The New York Times — were actually foreign ops flooding X with anti-American, anti-Israel, and pro-Hamas propaganda. What millions believed was grassroots sentiment was, in fact, a coordinated foreign influence campaign, a foreign psyop.

Thousands of accounts have been exposed by X’s new “About this Account” feature, which displays the country of origin based on signup IP, app store data, and activity patterns. This rollout, starting around November 22, 2025, has revealed the true country of origin for many profiles claiming to be U.S. or Gaza-based but operating from countries like India, Nigeria, Pakistan, and Bangladesh—especially among MAGA-aligned influencers and anti-Israel pages.

New transparency tools on X have now revealed that some of the platform’s biggest “influencers” — shaping debates on Israel, Gaza, U.S. elections, race, and “American decline” — were actually based in Austria, India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, the UAE, and Iran, not the United States.

The wildly popular “Republicans Against Trump” account, with nearly 1 million followers, turns out to be run out of Austria.

Investigators estimate that up to 90% of the “Gaza genocide” spam, anti-Republican rage-bait, and demoralization propaganda targeting Americans comes directly from troll farms in Pakistan, Bangladesh, the UAE, and Iran.

A viral “Gaza journalist” raising money for her “starving family” is not in Gaza at all — she’s based in India.

Even the massive “Iran Military Monitor,” claiming to broadcast from Tehran and boasting over 1.6M followers, is actually run by a Canadian.

These accounts pumped out fake dead-child images, recycled war clips, AI-generated atrocity photos, and nonstop psychological manipulation designed to inflame Americans and destabilize political discourse — all while posing as earnest U.S. activists.

The result? Millions of Americans, including media outlets and influencers, amplified foreign ops without realizing they were participating in someone else’s information war.

The new country-origin feature exposed hundreds of accounts suspected of using VPNs to pose as U.S.-based citizens while coordinating influence campaigns aimed at:

Undermining American institutions

Flooding X with anti-Israel disinformation

Pushing Marxist or extremist narratives

Demoralizing U.S. voters

Sparking division across political, racial, and religious lines

What appeared to be “viral activism” wasn’t activism at all — it was a transnational psychological operation targeting Americans on their own turf.

Fake accounts. Fake locations. Fake stories. Real influence.

And the biggest question now is this:

Will the mainstream media cover the largest foreign influence scandal in years — or ignore it because it exposes the narratives they eagerly repeated?

Because one thing is certain:

The jig is up.
