An Australian research team proved that: of 5.2 million tweets from February 23 to March 8, between 60 to 80% were shared by fake accounts. What’s more, 90% of those posts were pro-Ukraine.
In particular, these accounts pushed the hashtags #IStandWithUkraine, #IStandWithZelenskyy, and #ISupportUkraine, and myths like the ‘Ghost of Kiev’.
Significant spikes in activity were recorded at key points in the initial stages of the fighting, such as Russia’s capture of Kherson on March 2, and the Zaporozhye Nuclear Power Plant on March 4.
The accounts identified were overwhelmingly English language, leading the researchers to conclude these fake users sought to “drive more disruption in English-speaking countries” and “influence a variety of user groups.” Despite the significant focus on English, Ukrainian bots also employed the Russian language to “cause more disruption” in the country.
The accounts were successful in their objective of stimulating discussions and trends around particular topics, kickstarting and increasing online discussion around a number of subjects, including the question of whether Ukrainians should flee the country.
OBVIOUSLY BUT ITS JUST PISSING IN AN OCEAN OF PISS

If there's pro-Putin bots, and pro-Ukraine bots, does that imply that we're in a Second Cold War? This greyish morality is reminding me of those days.
The headline has it wrong. The policymakers are the ones who run the bot farms in an attempt to create consensus. Never going to fight for Vicky Nuland and George Soros' fucking illegitimate kike puppet Jewlensky ha ha ha just not gonna fight another war for the fucking jews.

>muh foreign bots
There’s real foreigners who constantly comment on American politics and elections online. There’s also multinational corporations that do the same. The pearl clutching that uniparty assholes did after Trump was elected was so disingenuous
