Introducing a small data project from the Late Night Anti-Fascist Collective: Twitter Suspended Replies Reports, featuring source accounts that frequently interacted with white supremacists and members of known hate groups.
Content warning: usernames within reports may contain racism, antisemitism, and other hateful or violent language.
What is a ‘Suspended Replies’ Report?
Each report in this set was generated by a tool that finds all of the Twitter users a source account has replied to and lists the ones that are suspended. The text files of the report include the handle, user ID, and other data for accounts that interacted.
Available Reports
In one of the reports listed below, Twitter user @RichardBSpencer replied to 11,077 Twitter accounts that had been suspended since the year 2012.

How is this useful?
When users are suspended from Twitter, they often return and interact with the same people repeatedly. Scroll through the lists or search them to find old user handles.
Here is an example of a search for a user called “Spectre” within one of the reports generated. Several of these handles likely belong to the “Spectre” who was unmasked in 2019.
Individual accounts will need to be independently verified, but these reports can provide a starting point.
This set of reports is also indexed within the LNAFA blog. Give the site search a try if looking for something that may be in multiple reports.
This data has been made available for research use.
