Do they not have any protection against fake reviews after all this time?

    You think maybe the guy known for trying to cheat voting systems did a little vote cheating?

      Allegedly about 50% of USAians have voted for Trump. So most likely there’s not even anything shady going on here.

            Don’t forget that there’s a whole hell of a lot of voter suppression going on in red states, too. Remember when Georgia voted for Biden in 2020? Or when Paxton said he was certain Texas would have gone to Biden in 2020 if he hadn’t prevented mail in ballots from being sent to certain counties? Republicans are actively preventing people from voting because they can’t win if everyone votes.

          now that i think about it, did that percentage figure in the fact that 25% of most populations are unvoting minors? or was that embarrassingly high 30% just eligible voters?

          edit: turns out the number is closer to 20%

    I think the “verified audience” are people who bought tickets through Fandango. So, either they were the kind of people who wanted to see and like it or they bought tickets but didn’t actually go and are astroturfing.

    Either way, the high ratings are definitely bullshit.

    Amazon spent $35m on it, I’m sure they can spend a little bit of that on buying some positive reviews

    RT is owned by Versant, a spin-off company of NBC-U. With a 25 percent share by WBD. It is not impartial.

    The “verified audience” aspect is the issue. Only people that paid for tickets are giving these reviews. One review:

    It was a magical awesome experience starting with the first song.

    Uh…yeah.
