its fake news with no source bots are still in full very present. To spread such infos without just help legitimize the bots...

There are multiple reputable sources. Anyone can confirm with a quick search.

The reduction in “bot” traffic is most likely just web crawlers

Tomáš Zdechovský made up a graph with no sources.

Most reputable sources' sources lead back to this gentleman. Which leads me to believe the bots decrease is yet to be proven.

I then refuse to lower my guards or advise anyone to do as such until it is truely proven. As lowering our guard will simply work in favour of Russia.

I’m with you. It’s premature to come out with all this stuff straight away. Time will reveal all.

You know who says “fake news” more than anyone is the one spewing the most bullshit, right?

To use a phrase even a toddler can understand: whoever smelt it, dealt it.

Most of it leads back to him. Thing is it's really not in Ukraine favour to make such a claim until a proper graph and data is provided. As it lower people guards against Russian bots.

Lots of political parties take advantage of the lie to call their opponents Russian funded.

I know I see plenty of ukrainian bots, but I've never seen russian ones on Reddit.

lots of russian bots are pro Ukraine. But makes them act in such a ridiculous manner so to make you dislike the Ukrainian resistance.

Just like the gato subreddit? Makes sense now.
I have to point out one important thing tho: it’s 4:27 AM Moscow time right now, so the bot farm workers ought to be asleep.

After all, they must have some sort of daily schedule – unlike unemployed dudes like me.

haha

bot farm workers adapt to the schedule of those who are to be influenced. Some bot farm are mostly automatic too. They try to stick to a schedule to avoid being banned by sticking out the ordinary too much.

My buddy’s brother swears he saw one about two years ago while they were hiking down in Montana. I believed him on account of the man he was.

Buddy. Ukraine just won the war against Right-Wing Russian bots.

If there's a bot above, it will be a Left-Wing propaganda bot, just as god intended.
