yes this is very accurate. multiple people post under the same accounts, they ignore any context of the discussion. they are paid for engagement so they are vested in starting flame wars. ive only paid attention to research on bots that operate in russian language, but personally on twitter over the years ive seen obviously russian bots in spanish, arabic, english and ukrainian too, and im actually unsure behind the logistics for some of them or perhaps another state employs similar actors, though they were hardlining support for russia.

when the sikh leader in canada was assassinated a lot of people i follow who reported on it got flooded with seemingly botted responses mocking the posters and the victim, though i dont follow any mainstream social media anymore and havent interacted with them since. interestingly, first russian and chinese bots were sighted in early 2000s apparently

i mean the mailing lists got it right, children are temporary emacs is forever

initial narrative was surface to air missile, which was determined to be false with likelier scenario being a bomb on the plane itself. i dont think anyone got arrested in relation to the incident either, and its not clear whether it was ordered by putin or by someone else involved in the africa business

make a fake post, arrest the target, fault some third party for the ruse

ill accept it as long as its not political!!!

too bad

the paranoia is what they want you to feel

the people who ruined the internet are the people. google, internet users and product owners have mutually adversarial relationships, so relying on google all this time naturally led to this.
