Oh also since that other thread got deleted you might want to repost that other article with the twitter like differences. Although, and I couldn't reply to you due to the thread being nuked, that seemed like weak evidence in my opinion and if true doesn't distinguish between paid clickfarms and state sponsored efforts.
I was under the impression when people said russian bot/troll they meant state sponsored and not cheap European labour hired by domestic politicians to promote BS but I might be mistaken.
Anyway it was interesting and worth discussing, although knowing lemmy the unwashed commentariat will blindly believe that one and blindly disbelieve this one.
