How authentic are forums like these actually? With the rise of AI chatbots, internet interaction feels more fake than ever before. Why should I post here my opinions and thoughts, share articles etc. when probably most of you are just chatbots?

I keep seeing the claim that their are bots everywhere when liberals encounter something they disagree with... yet they have not been able to program their own chat bots to counter them?

Surely liberals would recognize this advantageous strategy and flood the internet with their own bots. Because we know that it couldn't just be them stepping outside of astroturfed reddit, only to find their ideas are not as popular as they we led to believe.

I suppose they will just keep labeling people uselessly when encountering conflicting evidence. tankie
