    Eh, people over at Reddit have some serious hair triggers on accusing someone of being a shill. I’ve been accused dozens of times.

      True, but to me that indicates the people enshittifying Reddit to pump and dump it for short term profit did a good job of sowing enough confusion and distrust that it obscured all the bots pouring in. They leaned into a culture of fakeness and inhumanness in developing Reddit as a for-profit entity.
