Today, the US government has created accounts for multiple departments in a coordinated effort to manipulate the discourse on Bsky. Most of the engagement these accounts get is from freshly created accounts in the last 24 hours and some MAGA trolls.
Here are lists of the departments. You can use these to easily block or mute all of them. Starve them of the attention that they are seeking

And a list I created with all the people liking their shit, mostly fresh bots and trolls (the script is still WIP if anyone is interested):
I ran into MAGA nutter for a while there in the summer. He kept changing his user name, but it was blatantly obvious it was the same person. He eventually got booted off the platform for good after the moderators yeeted enough of his sock puppets.
It's inevitable that a few will creep in, I suppose. Just keep flagging them.
