If they were just talking about Reddit, I’d assume something dodgy was going on connected with the IPO. But Quora is supposedly back from the dead too… Am I missing something glaringly obvious here?

    If I remember correctly the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence quietly released a bipartisan report some years back conforming the existence of Russian trolls in the 2016 election. I haven’t seen any evidence or reports released that they have ceased their attempts at manipulating social media since then.

    I do agree though, a lot of the posts are just real people who know that hate gets more engagement and crazy people.
