Is there anyway to confirm this or is it just a vibe?

    I don't have enough of a Twitter brain to spend time siffting through it for chud takes, but I seriously doubt that. This is just another lib who attributes all of America's problems to Russian troll farms.

      I'm pretty sure they must live in an ultra-lib bubble and never have to interact with chuds IRL. It's a delusion

    software engineers are geniuses and infallible so it's simply not possible for actual Americans to have been banned as bots

    Probably some people who were defending Russia from insane conspiracy theories stopped once Russia jumped the shark with their invasion, and libs misconstrued it as proof of Russian disinformation bots. As if a war means countries produce LESS propaganda.

    If the libs actually believe that their dreaded Russian bots are no longer in the discourse, that's great. Now when I say something remotely critical of their brainwormed sycophantic takes on Biden or whatever, they won't be able to fall back on their old trusty canard of calling me a Russian bot as if it refuted anything I said.

    Who am I kidding, they still will. They believe and act on whatever is immediately convenient for them.

    She put one finger in her mouth and then put it out to test the direction of the Twitter wind

    I'm glad that sanctions forced twitter to check the "don't allow russian bots" box.

    Good thing Russian Intelligence doesn't have the resources and knowledge to use a proxy.

      I’m glad that sanctions forced twitter to check the “don’t allow russian bots” box.

      I mean... this but unironically. I'm sure once the war started, someone at Twitter HQ got a notice announcing the media push was officially on and all pro-Russia content needed to be immediately scrubbed or shadowbanned.

      But hey, Americans still have free speech. If you want to express an opinion, just scream into this pillow.
