    I always thought a scary amount of undetected “guerilla marketing” was invading Reddit. And I’m convinced bots were ginning up conversation in the comment sections of those Reddit posts. And bots were downvoting me when I cried manipulation. And all those voices I always hear were very against me.

    And here I thought I was crazy.

      Same, some of it was pretty obvious. Also a ton of bots spreading propaganda.
