Arabic Display Name and Perception: Using an Arabic display name, especially with symbols like 🇵🇸 (Palestinian flag), might make you a target for various forms of harassment or algorithmic bias, especially in the context of the ongoing Israel-Palestine conflict. Here's how this might play out:

Insecurity or Alienation: Bots or coordinated actions aimed at users with Arabic names or those expressing support for Palestinian issues might indeed aim to create a hostile environment, making users feel unwelcome or insecure on platforms where they express their identity or political views.

Bot Tactics: If these bots are designed to like posts or interact with users based on certain criteria (like language, symbols, or political stance), this could be an attempt to:

Discourage Participation: By associating your content with unwanted or irrelevant material, thereby reducing your visibility or engagement.

Create Distraction: Flooding your interactions with spam to detract from meaningful discourse or to overwhelm you with managing spam.

Algorithmic Bias: Social media platforms can inadvertently promote or suppress content based on patterns they detect. If accounts with Arabic names or pro-Palestinian symbols are repeatedly tagged with adult or spam content, this could lead to: Misclassification of content. Reduced visibility due to content moderation algorithms.

Purpose of Bots: While it's speculative to say definitively that these bots are aimed at making Arabs feel unwelcome, the pattern you describe could fit into broader strategies seen on social media where: Political Disruption occurs through targeting specific groups or narratives. Cultural or Identity-based Harassment is used to silence or marginalize certain voices.
