Most Bad Criticism of Movie from Russian Plotters
Researcher Morten Bay argues that the real response to the flick was actually much more positive.
“Overall, 50.9 percent of those tweeting negatively were likely politically motivated or not even human,” said Bay, a research fellow and Ph.D. candidate at USC.
Out of the 206 negative tweets, 33 were sent by trolls and/or “sockpuppets” — a fake identity used for deception — Bay found. Among the trolls, 16 accounts appeared to be Russian.
One of the accounts believed to belong to a Russian troll tweeted Johnson 13 times over three weeks that he had “ruined Star Wars.”

As if Putin would care about Star Wars.
Bay sounds like a Disney operative. I HATED Last Jedi and I'm no Russian nor bot and I know you're not either. Fans I know personally hated it too.
I'm going to enjoy not paying to see Episode 9 the same way I enjoyed not paying to see Solo.
