No but people who repeat Russian propaganda tend to be either Russian or paid bots.

That’s not how it works. If Russia and I both say the sky is blue, that’s hardly proof that my opinion is tied to Russia in any way.

Saying the sky is blue doesn't benefit Russia though, does it?

Whether it benefits Russia or not doesn’t factor in at all to whether my opinion is linked to Russia’s.
