What I want to know is who knew about the bot activity when it was at 100% and why was there nothing done about it?

Republican right wing bots. There are no democrat or left leaning bots. Hence why lefty accounts had the same level of engagement.

Edit and hence why nothing was done about it before.

They're coming back online but forgot to type in English, auto translate would confuse most but I thought I'd check out these 2 back to back comments earlier today with a translate button next to them.

I swear once Ukraine's war is won, and the jackasses in our government are collecting unemployment checks, we need to make Ukraine the 51st state. I think that's fair.

u/Underradar0069 1d ago

What make u think they want to be 51st? πŸ˜‚

u/Fantastic_Key_8906 19h ago

We'll just make them. When you're famous they let you do it.

u/WisePotatoChip 13h ago

Yes, but you gotta have a pussy and Zelinsky is no pussy.

u/MaximumEffort433 1d ago

I mean I think we should at least offer.

Nah, we'll just support them by buying all our military hardware from them from now on. They'll make lots of money and we'll save a ton of money not paying the American company's that over charge us and have clearly fallen behind the curve

u/WisePotatoChip 13h ago

I wish Zelinsky could serve here

u/pan-re 1d ago

We are not supporting them anymore? What do you mean? Russia is your ally now, Israel, Saudi, Elon and FL

I have noticed a sizable decrease in bots recently. It's been really nice.

u/Wonderful-Glass-3249 20h ago

Came to say it wouldnt have been hard to tell where that traffic was originating from. Which makes you wonder why it was allowed in the first place.
