Bots did get taken out. A search engine’s data centre got targeted. But it’s the same thing that would’ve happened if it was Google getting their data centres blown up. What we haven’t seen evidence for is that Russian misinformation bots have dropped off.

You got it wrong. It’s supposed to be strumpet and dink.

They also say there is no credible intelligence showing foreign actors altered the 2020 vote count. Multiple audits and reviews, many conducted by Republicans, including Trump’s own attorney general at the time, found no evidence of significant fraud.

Every country with the means to is going to be using bots. It’s just part of the political landscape at this point.

But to say that a privately owned search company uses most of their servers for Russian bots to sew discord across the world requires evidence. The current trend we just saw was millions of people partaking in mass delusion.

It is all anecdotes that can be explained by just a placebo effect. Actual bot farms (the kind of bots we’re talking about) don’t exist on search engine data centres. They’re set up in poor countries running on multiple second hand devices using proxies. Bots do exist, but you don’t get rid of them by blowing up a data centres used by a privately owned search engine.

So you believe things are true, not when there’s evidence for it, but because Russia says otherwise?

Reddit fell for the exact same thing.

How is it a lie? Do we have actual evidence that Russian bots went down?

It’s really funny seeing you guys yelling at ghosts.

Yeah are we forgetting that Russians exist?

No.

Paw patrol is just unironically copaganda.
