    A couple of months ago there was a data breach on twitter that revealed only 7% were actual people (active accounts)

            OP’s post is about fortnite, the top commenter of this comment chain added on a link about Twitter. Both are about a supposedly popular thing being overwhelmingly just full of bots. What’s not to get?

            Elmo “Pedo Guy” Musk is merging Twitter with Fortnite. So the Twitter bots will now be playing Fortine while spamming Elmo propaganda in chat.

            What exactly is not clear to you?
