Obviously. Because anyone who disagrees with the Western online consensus must be a bot, essentially by definition.

Would it please you if “useful idiot” would be used over bot when someone regurgitates Russian metodichkas?

		No matter what ideology you follow, you are someone’s useful idiot, so this term is meaningless. Russia is no more (and no less) my enemy than the US and the EU are. And as far as spreading propaganda goes, Russia is downright mediocre compared to the latter two.

Ehh, there are enough humans that would do that. Don't delude yourself thinking that there are no people that hold such views.

That's half the point of the bots though, to spread the propaganda to other people so they spread it as well

		Having multiple genuinely different viewpoints in a discussion isn’t evidence of “bots”, it’s the default in any community that isn’t heavily censored to silence dissent. And individuals voicing their different viewpoints isn’t “propaganda”, it’s the definition of discourse.
