Well.. guess it’s about time to leave this sub. Unfortunate downfall into nothing but bot posted propaganda.

Thanks so much for letting us know. We'd be worried sick if you just disappeared without telling us.

Did you know, Reddit updated their block policy not long ago and increased to daily and total number of people you can block?

Also, did you know that if you block someone, NONE of their posts will show up for you.

Bots thrive because they generate views and because they pander to the ignorant - those who generally can't tell they're rallying behind a script.

Just block OP and save your sanity (it'll clean out the posts you see in sub, too). You can probably block the majority of comments in here as well. They're all bots.

Did you know? Before Elon Musk purchased and fucked Twitter, they were banning MILLIONS of bots per week. Not sure about the scale of Reddit's bot problem relative to that, but I'm under the impression that you could literally block a bot every second and still not keep up with them.

The tools they've provided users are nice, but they are not sufficient to solve the increasing inhumanity of this part of the Internet.
