I passed on it. They sent reminder messages to both my email and reddit mail after the initial one. So, I suspected that the response may have been lackluster.

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.
