This is nonsense. When you read the story, the bots didn't change minds. The bots satisfied the bias.
No one on reddit went from genuinely "I hate troons" to "I love troons". It was more like "Troons are okay" to "Troons are being oppressed". Or "White man bad" to "white man really bad."

I mean, the first obvious thing is humans can't fucking post for 24/7 without sleeping.
