How many Alt Right or Anti Woke posts on all discussions are just Bots?

I see nearly every game forum or discussion board on steam is full of hate or anti-woke propaganda. Usually i see the same name multiple times. It's gotten bad enough that any real discussions of games is just thrown to the bottom. Do you think most are just bots trying to farm steam points?

It's like the same with reddit if you go to any conservative subreddit it's just bots posting the same thing. It's kinda insane

The internet has radicalised them.

Social media algorithms that brainwash and condition then to hate and they just don't have the awareness that they are manipulated by grifters taking advantage of their emotions.

Woke left are going ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ with violence lately, the amount of people pissed with that reflect that.

A chunk of users went from lefties to right wingers recently after the left showed their true murderous colors...

Ya this makes sense, same with all the bot posts everywhere to get them even more riled up. Some people are not reasonable

I think Miller's Crossing was about this, wasn't it?

But it was in the lens of ganglang chicago, a situation built by corporate interests as well.

When the cards fall who's going to be in the woods for the second time?

Should we tolerate people who were there in the first place? Simply because they're musicians, or educated, or well-off, or insightful?

we don't have any method to remove these hostile, william-carrying nanomachines from people's bodies.

besides reincarnation.

I think we've been dancing around this issue for a long time.

Really? I have seen a few far right bots which is bad, but the majority I see are bots spamming the 'events and announcements' sections of games with "pLz AdD rEpReSeNtAtIoN", with no other intent than to collect steam points and give people who actually want the representation a bad name.

*And for games with representation for [insert specific thing here], its the far right bots begging for it to be removed.

All the outrage machinery works on fabricated controversies to drive views and clicks to content.

Why do you think there's users here who consistently post dozens of youtube videos on every other reply?

It's all about engagement farming, whether it's done by bots, interested parts or 'true believers'.

You'd think it was the weekends with how slow the mods are.
They really should just be replaced with some obnoxious AI moderation system at this point, with how useless and incompetent these paid ones are.
I guess they are working their real jobs, since Valve likely doesnt pay anyone a living wage to look at their dumpster fire forums.
