Oh you're published? It's cute you think that means anything in this context.
Russia is known to pay flesh-and-blood human beings to act as agents in information campaigns. The fact that you don't know that and just assumed I was talking about chat bots for no apparent reason tells me everything I need to know. It's why I was mocking you; your statement just had nothing to do with what was being spoken of, and you're either dishonest or too oblivious and self-absorbed to realize that.
For the record, there are full grown adults who were born after my first research project with publishable results.
ah. right. I totally forgot how flesh and blood people were cheaper than chat bots (they aren't) and that they have tons of excess manpower to throw at the task-- that's why they're relying on North Koreans to defend Kursk.
Yeah, they paid Tim Pool and other right wing podcasters to shill for them, but there's no evidence anywhere that they're targeting fucking Lemmy. It's an absurd position given the size of the user base and the nature of federation.
How much is a Facebook ad these days? probably a lot cheaper than paying people to troll you in their non native language.
