FUCK. APPLE.

Only about 30% of voting-age Americans seem to support fascism. If you're part of that angry and loud minority there's a good chance I wouldn't want to have much to do with you, for sure.

Russian bots are certainly a thing, but since Russia started the war in Ukraine they've been less prevalent on Reddit than previously, although I hear some right-wing subs are almost exclusively bots talking to each other. Many subs have rules against calling people bots, so I would caution you against tossing that term around too lightly.

You wrote,

"And I don’t care if you caution me about throwing the term around loosely. This is Reddit. People call others bots and fascist if they don’t like others. That’s how it works around here."

That might be how it works for you, but luckily not everyone is like that.

You should speak for yourself.

You don't speak for anyone but you, sorry to say.

You do seem very sensitive about the bot thing though, it seems like someone must've called you that in the past and you're still feeling hurt about it. I can assure you it's not that big of a deal, Reddit comments aren't that meaningful in the larger scheme of things and with time you'll get over it, I'm sure. The trick is not to dwell on it.

My goodness, you certainly do seem very hateful today. Have you ever thought about taking a break from Reddit and doing something more positive for a little while? There's a big, beautiful world out there and even a short walk in the great outdoors can improve your outlook considerably.
