3. This is on Twitter...?

Strange things have been happening lately. There was an acquaintance of mine (a fellow Sounders supporter), who mainly posted her artwork from her studies at UW, where she just graduated. Anyway, I didn't see anything from her for a few months, then, suddenly, after the first Floyd protests, she started posting criticism of the media for a supposed "anti-police" slant. Since then, her account turned into a "all #BlueLivesMatter, all the time" stream of right-wing posts. A few other followers of hers started discussing it this afternoon, did some checking, and it turned out her Twitter account had been hijacked. It's possible someone did that to you as well, except, instead of locking you out of it permanently and using it for their own purposes, they just had the time to grab it and trashed your followers before getting detected.
