    1. >On 12 June 2025, dozens of anonymous X (formerly Twitter) accounts advocating Scottish independence abruptly went silent. Many had posted hundreds of times per week, often using pro-independence slogans, anti-UK messaging, and identity cues like “NHS nurse” or “Glaswegian socialist.”

      >Their sudden disappearance coincided with a major Israeli airstrike campaign against Iranian military and cyber infrastructure. Within days, Iran had suffered severe power outages, fuel shortages, and an internet blackout affecting 95 percent of national connectivity.

      If only we were half as relevant on the world stage as our adversaries think we are. Iran’s national security would hardly be affected if Scotland went independent, we barely have a presence in the Strait of Hormuz beyond a minesweeper. In the wider Middle East perhaps but I struggle to see how jets in Cyprus would be affected by Scottish independent.

    3. So basically, these pro independence accounts are bots causing disinformation as a Scot, The idea of going independent from the UK is a terrible idea we need to stay together and be stronger together

      so if it isn’t rupert murdoch, barclay brothers et al then its a hostile state. OK, i guess its the side effect of having a democracy i guess.

      I also guess someone in that group ACTUALLY won the Brexit vote. I can envisage them cracking out the most expensive bottle of bubbles (or Lassi for those non-alcoholic drinkers).

      Aye, of course, were too stupid to think for ourselves, so the Iranians must be the heart of the ‚pro Indy‘ movement. Lol!

      Article is from UK Defence Journal, a rightwing nationalist think tank…..talk about propaganda

      Edit: Ops post history is all very critical of independent Scotland and pro-UK nationalism. One could say a single subject poster.

      What is this absolute garbage look at the source. This exact same post has been posted in r/europe_sub well.

      This is literal propaganda

      ‘’ The content mixed pro-independence rhetoric with populist criticism of the UK government, anti-monarchy sentiment, and solidarity with progressive causes. One tweet, which was viewed over a million times, stated, “the people robbing this country travel by private jet not by dinghy.”’’

      Explains quite a bit if this is also implicated in the culture wars.
