Follow-up tweet…

She’s now trending higher than stories about the mass shooting.

Twitter will not free Palestine, but it will certainly make the world a more antisemitic place

by Eve Barlow • May 25, 2021

I don’t know who crafted the first tweet that simply said “Eve Fartlow,” but whoever it was—bot or human—started a fire. Over the past two weeks, Twitter has been littered with the words “Eve Fartlow.” Every time I tweet, this title is the response I attract, and it is pelted at me irrespective of what I write. Hundreds of trolls, some with blue ticks and some without, just start responding to me “Eve Fartlow” (some people have recently switched it to “Eve Shartlow” but “Eve Fartlow” seems to be the one that sticks). If we donated a JNF tree to Israel for every time someone tweeted “Eve Fartlow,” there’d be no Negev left.

    Two weeks ago, as Westerners began educating themselves about Sheikh Jarrah and the Iron Dome through stick figures with biased speech bubbles on the Diet Prada and Refinery29 Instagram feeds, something else started happening on social media. I coined it the world’s first social media pogrom.

    How does anyone survive with this little self-awareness?

      Writing a prescription for this lady’s illness. It’s a sheet of paper that says “LOG OFF” on it.

      Edit - She already covered this, saying that logging off was “digital suicide”. Holy shit. This is actually posting yourself into mental illness.

      I’m not even joking. I genuinely think she should seek help because this is not a healthy way for someone to think. This is why you should genuinely “log off” lest your brain becomes wormed.
