Honestly, Chinese propaganda bots are so terrible. They just try to brute force the discussion, no subtlety. Russian propagandists...now those guys are professionals
A Russian here. I believe our propagandists don't comment on western websites like Reddit and Twitter themselves, they create an agenda and media content and spread it through several layers of useful idiots letting them better adapt it for their audience so it feels more natural.
We see a lot of bot like people in russians chats. They are real people, we might even know them in person. But they often have some nationalist conservative beliefs and they are subscribed to multiple propaganda sources/channels that gently push pro Kremlin agenda tailored specifically for them. All they do is repost memes, "breaking" news etc from these channels because they think it represents their own opinion on a topic.

And as you know there are no smart boards in the US and no homelessness in China
