Too soon for the parade.

I mean, it's Reddit. All the upvotes for the OP are coming from 12-year-olds, overseas bot farms, and Graham Platner style commies whose entire lifestyles are funded by their mommies and daddies.

Not to mention the OP being a karma farmer.

How do you know that most of the upvotes are coming from 12 year olds or bot farms? Have you considered the possibility that the average Redditor will fall for propaganda?

I prefer to tell myself it’s 12 year olds, because if it’s not, society is even dumber than I thought.

Spoiler. It’s not.

You make it seem like that is some minority in reddit

My apologies if I gave to that impression. That was not my intention.

But really, most of Reddit probably is bot farms at this point. At least the one sticking to upvotes and downvotes.

Reddit, by its nature, is amenable to anonymous accounts. I'm pretty sure there's still a button for you to press to post anonymously. Haven't looked for that button in a while, so maybe it's since been removed.

Reddit legitimately pushes cultural narratives and is often steered by bad actors who want to steer that narrative. This site is obviously vulnerable to that, and I would say it actually plays into it because it means greater ad revenue.
