Are there Russian trolls/bots on ERA?

[Dr. Feel Good]

Given the recent request from Democrats to gain more insights and data from Reddit in regards to the news that Russian trolls/bots have been attempting to influence their community, I'm curious if ResetERA could also potentially be susceptible to similar threats. The user base and demographic (I would imagine) is very similar here to Reddit, and has a very active and vocal voice around policy, Trump, and controversial issues (Gamers Gate).

I'm curious if the admin team has seen anything that would lead them to believe that registered users IP addresses and activity makes them think certain nefarious activity is going on, even at a small scale?

There is certainly no shortage of whataboutism.

There seem to be Chinese and Russian shills at the very least.

If you define "Paid Russian Troll" as any criticism of the Democrats or center-right economic policy in general like PoliEra does then you're obviously going to see "Russian Trolls" everywhere.
