If I were a bot, I don’t think I’d be posting comments to receive downvotes. Bots usually want visibility, downvotes reduce visibility.

I haven’t looked at this sub’s rules, but I know a lot of these woke subs have strict regulations against accusing someone of being a bot. I hope you don’t get reported!

I won’t report you, don’t worry. I don’t need The Man to police mean words for me.

The nonsense words betray that you’re a bot

I didn’t declare that, I was trying to be helpful.

Right, because obviously it's that simple.

No.

EDIT: Russian bots, for example, are known for disseminating disinformation and generally trying to muddy dialogues and corrupt the facts. They'll often get downvoted. Doesn't mean they're not bots or trolls.
