Its like Hillary walking into a working class kitchen for the first time.

They've been shielded from even critical support of China and other AES for so long they literally, not figuratively, literally cannot process that people exist that have beliefs that aren't Reddit Approved. They immediately assume it's bots or wumao. Human beings can't possibly hold these beliefs, so they must be Oriental hordes or actual robots.

    I thought we had an amber bot. I think lemmygrad has a parenti quote bot

        Idk, haven't seen it in a while. Maybe one of the recent updates broke it

        Hexbear codebase merging back into Lemmy broke it :(

          I miss it. Going "who's everyone's favorite Chapo? Mine's Amber." Thereby triggering the bot and editing my post to say Will was peak posting

        I'm the amber bot dev. The API change broke it and I just didn't have enough free time to fix it. Gonna try to get it back up this weekend
