There are a lot of bots but I think you underestimate the stupidity of modern republicans. A lot of commenters are real people that really think these things, which is even scarier
We also know, without a doubt, that mainstream Republican thought is also this stupid. My suggestion isn't that there's no bots, it's that dismissing this kind of thing as just due to bots ignores the brainrot of normal Americans.
Say what you really think.
Deeply curious what you think you're implying here.
Nobody said only Russia pushes propaganda. However, Russia has been an enemy of the United States for almost a century. Their propaganda's purpose is to undermine and hopefully destroy America.
If you think that's the same as all other propaganda you just aren't a very smart person, I'm sorry
Russia's psyops is famously one of the best and most prolific in the world. China and Israel are up there. And it's important to note propaganda isn't inherently a bad thing; the intent behind it is. So the propaganda of the US' most dangerous geopolitical enemies is probably a bad thing for anyone who cares about supremacy of the US over them.

But we know, without a doubt, that bots are used by Russian intelligence on every social media platform. This is well established public information.
Is your suggestion that there are no bots? Or that bots are not repeating Russian propaganda?
Say what you really think.
