Several Twitter accounts with paid Blue subscriptions have promoted false and misleading claims related to the Ukraine war. These include posts alleging that weapons sent to Ukraine were used in French riots, that Ukraine runs “baby factories” harvesting children’s organs, and that Ukraine accidentally launched the missile that struck Kramatorsk. In reality, fact checkers found no evidence for these claims. Additionally, while Volodymyr Zelensky stated that elections cannot be held during martial law, some Blue accounts falsely claimed he cancelled elections altogether. Twitter declined to comment on the issue of false information spread by Blue accounts.
Twitter Blue accounts are a godamn blight.
