    As am I. I’m a bit curious as to which viewpoint they’re discussing.

    I don’t think it’s bad for people to be somewhat suspicious of bots/misinformation campaigns that occur online. We do know they occur.

    That said, I believe we should still try to communicate on the various media platforms in the event that there is in fact a human behind the screen.

      My guess: The Russian bots current aim for the US left version of the Internet is mostly trying to discourage them from voting.

          Old people’s vote is vastly more difficult to suppress. Old people go vote, the youth though? Just tell them shits fucked and their vote doesnt matter and they eagerly give up and sit home.
