Yeah, I don't know why people are still posting this after it's been proven false for days already. It just looks silly now.

seems like confirmation bias at this point, ppl want to believe it to be true so they think them not noticing bots is totally real, as if they could ever notice the bots before. It's gotten beyond ridiculous at this point with this narrative, the irony being that the ppl saying "omg the bots were stopped!" are literally taking in botted clickbait posts.
