OK, why only external policy? we are talking if the Ruzzian regime and the USA state would do the same stuff, if they are the same, because the topic was "if Ruzzia is doing it then USA is also doing it"

a contra example or more should shut this idiotic take and we can find some other evidence for this invisible USA bot farms.

You mean articles like this, which have been completely wiped and erased from every search engine?

Yeah USA has bot farms as well, they just like to pretend it's only the others who do.

So your claim is USA does it but in a very intelligent way that nobody sees it, where Ruzzia is doing in such a dumb way that intelligent people can see the bots and the politicians in Ruzzia are so stupid that they publicly reward the trolls.

I do not believe it, UK did a brexit where the Ruzzian bots were active so it is clear they do not have bots to fight them, USA elected again a special person supported bytthe Ruzzian bots so again no chance USA has super intelligent bots that are hidden but manipulate the public opinion .

No my claim is that USA doesn't constantly point out the obvious ways they are doing it. And of course most of it will be in foreign languages so nothing we can really come across.
