Plus chatbots now are getting more sophisticated, the government sponsored influence operations have the newest generation chatbots too, Israel of course the main one, but other subjects as well, like hyping the US military after the venezuela operation, which was in fact a military coup, the US made a deal with their generals to stand down and give up a few loyalist units and the presidente in exchange for the military being the de facto ruler, civilian government puppets now. Helicopters are vulnerable to weapons systems the army couldn't take our reliably without an agreement to stand down, not the least in one of the most protected places in the country when mobilized.
But after that operation, when they were pretending the US did it under the nose of the military and not in cooperation with them, as they were threatening Cuba and Colombia, and Canada and Denmark, and Iran, and Yemen, et al, their chatbots and influence agents were running wild, entire divisions of mechanized trolls and chatbots. It was not subtle. Argue with them too much they will mass flag you and reddit will side with them, not you.
Despite us being the ones that drive use, and the bots and agents making a less enjoyable, less useful, and less used site. They don't care, they can't see past the next set of financial statements. Bots inflate their numbers, and the government and powerful interests can jam them up if they don't lick their boots and pretend to believe them, ban the users they tell them to, etc.
They figure we have no where else to go, so they don't have to cater to us anyway. Let's make them wrong about that.
