Maybe the replies are also fake to drive the narrative

It is interesting where you go on (eg. echo chambers) but like 9gag for example is super racist and doesn't seem to be moderated.

Like TruthSocial do real people actually use that? Crazy

They are not fake. I've also seen these and checked commenters' profiles. Real people, in the 35-50 age range.

How can you tell by just looking at their profile? Bots have for over a decade been able to generate a profile with a real looking picture (usually just scraped from the web) and a realistic sounding bio.

Tangent but reddit allows people to hide their post/comment history which is fine I guess but it's not great for that reason, trying to see if an account is a bot or not. Other than age can't tell anything about that account.

I notice more and more accounts use it, particularly the spicy commenters. Which is whatever, I try to stay away from social media now, this is SM here but at least it's more technically oriented/useful.

People can curate their profiles, but not search results. Their posts and comments will still show up if you just search on their user page.

I wonder if these are the people that cause a ruckus at protests ha
