    Most of them have gotta be bots. I cannot fathom arguing so hard to defend that fucking Nazi.

    They really are that fucking stupid, and any of the accounts that are bots are just parroting the morons who really do believe that shit. 77 million people in the US voted for Trump, some of them are on reddit.

      I mean I agree a lot of people are that stupid. But the way a lot of these accounts write and will reply ad infinitum makes me think they’re not real people.

        Morons parroting propaganda looks a lot like bots parroting morons parroting propaganda. Plus a lot of people are terminally online and full of piss and vinegar. Heck the most prolific posters on the Fediverse are active nearly all of their waking hours.

        Sure, it is probably amplified because that is how things go. They are probably in the middle of the pack to avoid standing out and the absolute worst or ‘obvious’ bots are probably just people who post too much and have a shitty worldview.
