    Cool Twitter just purged Russian bots, and Trump fans are crying as their followers vanish

    Today, our thoughts and prayers are with the #MAGA brigade, as they howl in despair after half their Twitter followers vanished overnight.

    The reason? Those ‘cruel leftist libs’ at Twitter just purged a load of Russian bots – leading (hilariously) to right-wing Tweeters losing their sh*t.

    They think it’s some kind of left-wing conspiracy, whereas in fact, Twitter just deleted a bunch of non-existent fascists controlled from St Petersburg.

    Not seeming to realise the irony, many are sharing their agony online with the hashtag #TwitterLockout.

    The outrage on Twitter is beyond hilarious. Oddly, only right nut jobs are complaining of lost followers.

    i have to wonder if they were all bots..on the other hand getting upset over loosing followers?

    Twitter is trying to avoid government regulations ( the real back story here)
    I don't know how you were diverted / You were perverted too
    I don't know how you were inverted / No one alerted you

    I read where it said something about ‘irony’ lol.

    Like the left, the media and even the FISA court all getting punked by a Russian Dossier. Trump is right: the Russians are laughing their asses off at the whole thing.
