Does anyone know why the exactly there are so many Russian language spam comments on my post about a reactionary SCOTUS judge’s disturbing beliefs? What exactly could those two things possibly have to do with each other?

Comments on: "A question" (4)
Maybe because of the currently heightened activity regarding feminism in Russia? Other than that, I got nothin’.
Meaning (sorry, I done derped) because of this heightened chatter, there may be more spambots that are more likely to find any posts regarding feminism in Russia, or some such.
Maybe it’s that. Or it could be anything.
An appreciable portion of my spam, when I bother to ping the IP address, does turn out to be from Russia. But usually, it’s in English. Considering that my entire blog is in English and I know no Russian, the fact that some spam ends up in that tell me strongly that a machine is doing the spamming. A human would never do such a silly error.
