reddit is absolutely flooded with AI bots like this. There are bots that try to by more subtle by inserting "lol" and "lmfao" or randomly double letterss to make it look like a hhuman typing.
The hardest part of stuff like this is explaining to my mum that almost all comments on Facebook are synthetically generated. No mum, "Denise Smith" in Brisbane, who has a pixelated stock image of a washing machine as her profile banner, is NOT a human with real concerns about Albo's leadership.

Heil human 🫪
It's obvious when a profile has a pixelated cover image of the person because they've obviously pulled two of someone's profile photos. But when the profile says they're a 65 year old woman and their profile photo is some flowers, it's harder to tell because 65 year old women actually do that
There's so many AI bots 😠dead internet
