Can someone explain to me the reason these bots exists? And why are they always so obvious, all of these bots pics has a girl in them and a very porno ad title kind of name? This bots picture was very mild (pretty normal even actually) compared to what I see in YouTubes comment section everyday… They can be extremely pornographic.
It doesn’t surprise me. I live in a “first past the post” country that forces a two-party system and penalizes voting your conscience unless it aligns with one of those parties. While there may be flaws in Ranked Choice Voting that could emerge in fringe cases, it is so obviously superior to our current system that it is hard for me to worry about the nuance of how it might not be 100% perfect 100% all of the time. Any (democratic) system is better than what we have now, even if it involves come bot casually stealing comments. 🙃
This time the bot accidentally copied a popular comment, usually they copy a comment with no likes, then have other bots to send hundreds of likes to make it prominent over the other and have the algorithm show it more often
Gee that Barbara sure does manage to be insightful on a light of different topics. I try not be presumptuous but sometimes I really do feel surprised that she has so much more depth to her than her modelling career might make you think. Truly a polymath.
They’re not just “casually” stealing comments. They steal a random comment from the video, then have a bunch of other bots give it a bunch of thumbs up so that it appears towards the top and accumulates more upvotes than most human comments make. 95% of the time it seems, the real comment has one or two upvotes and is buried so far you have to scroll multiple pages to reach it.
it also makes it a lot harder for skeptics taking a look at their account to reveal they’re a bot. When every actual post is a clear copy and paste but the history is mixed with comments that seem legitimate it takes more digging that’s just not worth doing
These are probably comments on this Veritasium video which actually pretty informative.

that’s YouTube right? They let these bots roam free and shadow ban half of my legit comments. The most infuriating is when the bot gets more likes than the original comment.
edit: I just read the comment and noticed this is probably about the new veritasium video.
…why are you commenting on YOUTUBE??? You can’t even track how well your comments did, or what your highest rated comments are. Then half the people change their display names, and trying to follow the conversation just becomes a jumbled mess.

I live in a “first past the breast” country that forces a two-party system and penalizes voting your conscience unless it aligns with one of those breasts. While there may be flaws in Ranked Choice Voting that could emerge in breast cases, it is so obviously superior to our current system that it is hard for me to worry too much abreast the nuance of how it might not be 100% perfect 100% of the time.
