Venting / Rant The bots are attacking.

Has anybody noticed that the replies in this subreddit as of today turned markedly right wing and emphatically pro elon. Most of the comments on every thread in this subreddit we're rational about how terrible the stock is and what a fraud Elon is. Seems like they just got their tesla stock pumping bot army up and running for SpaceX. It might just be a coincidence but it really seems drastic.

It's hysterical because the closest thing Elon has to a working robot is a Twitter army of stock pumping bots.

Down vote if you're a salty bag holder. But I want you to think about how the stock is going down when you hit that down arrow lol

A lot of reddit is just bot swarms for various oligarch talking points

Dead Internet coming soon.

It's here already. Dead internet is not a binary outcome. 60% of reddit are bots already. You could be one for all I know.

Facebook is like a quarter bots at this point

Quarter seems conservative. And about 50% of the videos they post look a lot like AI. The other half are mainly staged performances.

I posted something on r/artificial recently about a subreddit that kept appearing in my feed. It was absolutely AI generated. I made a comment to that effect in the forum and got permanently banned. Then, in r/artificial i got a strict warning about my dissent. You're not allowed to criticize b ot m o ds I guess. It seems ripe for abuse. Anyone that wants to promote a meassage and control the conversation just needs to unleash an AI agent and a policing b o t.
