Bots? You mean the very things he pledged to get rid of before buying Twitter? Theyre still on Twitter?
I cant believe it
The guy who got rid of all the controls that limited hate speech, and who invited back a whole bunch of people who got kicked off previously for hate speech, is all shocked-pikachu at the surge of hate speech following his actions.
