Like people always say reddit is filled with bots, but I looked through the users of the top posts and didn’t find evidence that they are bots.

Like how do you know who is a bot? Is there things to look out for?

Edit: And I’d appreciate it if there are real examples of bots getting caught and the evidence of them being bots.

    Propaganda. You use the bots to repost and recomment topics that cause division among the populace.

      I’m pretty suspicious about all the AITA posts these days. So many of them just smell like rage bait designed to pit men and women against each other.

      And Russia has shown that the return on investment for this type of propaganda is incalculably enormous.

      And the karma lets the bots pass simple account limits.
