Yes. And it's been debunked as probably fake AMA. There's little doubt that reddit is full of paid actors, spechially for industries like animal ag. But the post itself was fake and had several inconsistencies.

Do you have a source on it being debunked?

Thanks, I'll pass on the video then lol

A news outlet reported on the post so I disagree with Jol.

Tbf, news outlets report on whatever slop comes out of Reddit these days because it's easier than doing actual journalism.

[–] glimse@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

Do they investigate beyond the reddit post and confirm the information?

[–] jol@discuss.tchncs.de 1 points 1 month ago

If the source was still just the reddit post, how is that any more credible? I'll try to find the video essay breaking it down.
