Twitter's Russian bot scandal debunked

The recent Twitter files drop by Matt Taibbi revealed that the allegations of Russian bot interference on Twitter were unfounded. Emails from Twitter executives confirmed that the accounts labeled as Russian bots were actually legitimate right-leaning accounts. Joelle Roth, a Twitter executive, admitted in internal communications that the dashboard used to track Russian influencers was false and the allegations were baseless. This exposes the media's unquestioning adoption of the Russian bot narrative, which has been used as a tool to discredit conservatives and Trump supporters. The evidence shows that the misinformation machine was in full effect, perpetuating a fabricated story to tear the country apart.
