Kremlinbots

[Waradlain]

A few days ago, Twitter posted a database of tweets from a Russian "bot factory". Activity schedule in Russian (orange) and in English (red).
The orange peak is the period of the annexation of Crimea and downing Boeing MH17 over Donbas and the high red activity is the US presidential election.
As we know massive activity spotted at Facebook, Youtube, Reddit etc. 
So I wonder is any kremlinbots being caught here at bitcointalk or nobody cares?



For those who interested:
the whole database is here https://about.twitter.com/en_us/values/elections-integrity.html#data

I don't think that these kremlin bots are rooting for any particular side, it seems as if they're just trying to make the American electorate divided over so many issues -- and if we're looking at the US right now we see that they're without a doubt succeeding in at least that quest. Politics has NEVER been such a polarizing issue, people will literally stop talking to one another (family, close friends, etc) if you don't align with their political views.

It's a crazy world out there, the Russians are succeeding.

Dude read the 38 page indictment of the GRU national that had a 35 million USD budget to attack the left.  The attack is completely targeted at getting the right pissed off at the left.  If you think a dictator paying for propaganda is spending it on a fair attack on both sides you're crazy bro, they have a real interest in having as hard right a leader as possible as POTUS.

But you're 100% right it is working and has been since at least 2016!

To the OP I don't think any of the IRA bots are actually here, not enough bang for their buck.

I'm not saying it's being done equally, I'm saying that the goal is to create chaos -- not to support one candidate or another.

I'll give you at least this one, https://fivethirtyeight.com/features/how-much-did-russian-interference-affect-the-2016-election/

It's hard to measure if anything.

Even there, there’s some ambiguity — but considering that Clinton essentially lost the election by only 0.8 percentage points (Trump’s margin of victory in the tipping-point state, Wisconsin) and that the Comey letter coincided with a polling shift of about 3 points toward Trump, we can be reasonably confident that it was enough to make the difference.

so hard, many measure, literally from the link provided.

Whatever it takes for you to continue the delusion that Trump was not legally voted in.

Guess we will start to find out in Jan when the Dem's take control of the house!!

Yes, because nearly 3 years of investigating isn't enough to produce any actual evidence, including about a year under Obama's rule. What you mean is if your delusions of Democrats retaking control materialize magically, then you can manufacture all the evidence you want.

Patience Grasshopper!  Focus on the Mueller investigation because that's the special investigation into the 2016 election specifically.  The Mueller investigation isn't even a year and a half old.  Watergate took 2 years to unfold and Whitewater took more than 4 years.  Neither of those two involved a hostile nation which would likely make it harder to gather evidence...

Dems are picking up 35 seats in the house dude, like it or not!!!  Even if they don't get 35 they will take control of the house!  The investigations are coming for Trump and no matter how much you and he may not like it that isn't going to stop what's coming.

We're all going to find out the entire Trump campaign was balls deep with Russia, it's gonna be so fun to watch!

There is no way Trump and his kids are smart enough to have refused the Russians help when they offered it, nor are any of them smart enough to be able to cover it up in a way that Mueller didn't figure out in his first day on the job!!!

Remember kids the fun starts in Jan 2019 and should provide major entertainment all year long!  The pussy grabbing unnamed co-conspirator is going to have much more of his dirty laundry aired!

Why should I be patient? Why don't you simply back up your premise with facts? Oh right, there are none, this is all just a fabrication designed to distract from their own corruption.

lol "hostile nation". Everyone knows who is hostile, except for you and your delusional brethren constantly trying to reassure each other of your collective hallucination.

Trump has already been investigated and explicitly cleared, but you keep imagineering!

You seem rather confident. You wanna put some money on this?

You're probably already live in 2019 since, as far as I know, the investigation is currently not completed and it's too early to draw any conclusions. If we don't consider Congress investigation.

President Donald Trump's legal team is preparing a report that will contain sections rebutting a series of potential conclusions special counsel Robert Mueller could reach in his eventual findings, Rudy Giuliani tells CNN.
This is not how you act if don't feel guilty eh?

Nope. it is real simple. Investigations are based on evidence. Even in the most high level investigations 100% of the actual evidence does not remain behind closed doors. If there was SOMETHING, ANYTHING at all to grasp on to it would have been paraded around the media years ago. This whole concept that there is no evidence to present because the investigation is not over is just your personal suspended belief and you demanding the rest of the world share it. Furthermore they have already announced Trump himself is not even under investigation at this point.

There is no evidence. You have none.

Get back to it next year.

So in other words you have zero evidence and this is just a really long, expensive, drawn out, taxpayer funded smear campaign. Thank you.

Are you employed by the hostile foreign nation state entity? Really, you seem like a sycophant when it comes to Russia. Makes me wonder who pays you to spread misinformation and FUD.

The evidence of the investigation is there. The evidence that Trump committed treason is in public. Really, it's about convincing the general public that Trump's guilty, which won't happen until congress flips.

No pal, in other words I don't find it reasonable ot spend time arguing with you. At least for the moment.
What I know for sure is if almost every member of your entourage has been seen in connections with Russians, you just cannot be clean as a whistle. Zero chances. Impossibru.

Twitter is a huge worldwide platform where public opinion can be swayed. Why would Russia waste time with their bot armies on a bitcoin forum? Without evidence it's probably not even worth postulating.

IRA in action.

They're here too, not just twitter.

What makes you so sure? Somehow I doubt they're on every message board on the internet. They'll go where they can have the biggest impact and to places where they can influence the masses such as social media platforms like Twitter and Facebook.

I don't think that these kremlin bots are rooting for any particular side, it seems as if they're just trying to make the American electorate divided over so many issues

I disagree. I think they will always have an agenda. Clearly they wanted Trump in for whatever reason. Maybe not for anything specific other than being disruptive, but something tells me they did have a specific motive with this last presidential election.
