Do you see the bots above my reply? they hammer each post with redundant content identical to what they posted yesterday.

Reader: in the internet of today; beware of bots. Learn so you may know how easy it is to make sock accounts managed by the same person.

I suggest - in what I hope is a friendly and helpful manner - that you stop making false accusations against the members here.

The charge of the chatbots: how do you tell who’s human online?

Automated ‘voices’ that were supposed to do mundane tasks online also now spread hate speech and polarise opinion. Are they a boon or a threat?

So Brian -if that is your real name-, please shhhhh and read the media. Maybe you'll learn something.

Sadly, when one has peaked there's nowhere to go but down. Peaking early seems to cushion the fall somewhat.

I understand that there are medications for that, available from the seedier corners of the internet.

No, you were referring to the members here.

And 'Brian' isn't my real name. It's Padruig Micheál Shannon.

Are there internet bots? Yes.  But unless you have some evidence that they're at work here, kindly belt up about it.

Imagine if you come later, to find out that all the so called "people" who cheered for you once, are bots managed by a single person..
Now, that is sad...that is what alone means..so sad.

Actually, I think I'd be kind of flattered to think that one person went to all that trouble for little old me.

Someone is begging for the hammer. Sometimes you have to be cruel to be kind.

No; the problem is that you're being "used" by an Evangelical sitting behind the screen. You think you are debating a group of other athiests, but they are actually a single Evangelical troll laughing at you without you even know it. I mean you fell for his sock accounts and believed them.

Trump won that way btw..

Or maybe an "ISIS troll".

The worst trolls though are these working for the Indian government.

*shrug*  Unlike you, I don't have a perpetual, pathological need for validation.

Dear Op of this thread 

If your accuse us of being bots for pointing out the same things . You can easily be accused of being a bot for repeating the point over and over again 

So unless you have any actual proof the commenters in question are bots .Please stop accusing people of being bots . 

So Brian -if that is your real name-, please shhhhh and read the media. Maybe you'll learn something.

 You don't tell mods on this site to shush

Imagine you later come to find out were all people and your a paranoid loon 

Now that is sad

Correct.  The proper phrasing is, 'SHUT YOUR STINKING CAKE HOLE, MOD-BOY!!'
