In this thread: User ThuleanPerspective apparently losing their fucking minds and then having their entire account comment history removed. I've never been so intrigued to know what crazy nonsense this person posts.

Update: Looked closer at their history. Managed to comment in dozens of threads per minute. Likely a bot that got removed. That's more boring than I'd hoped.

They did the exact same thing with a different account yesterday. I'm guessing this is going to be a thing for a while.

Ive seen those kind of posts all the way back to the reddit Exodus. No idea what their motives are even.

I think at the moment it's mainly about causing drama and chaos. I'd say 70% are bots made just because we seem like easy targets, 25% are bots made by people with vested interested in the liked of Reddit and similar trying to cast doubt on the legitimacy of the fediverse, and 5% are just people making bots for no real reason
