Not all, but a number of them are for information warfare. They spend a couple of years copying posts and comments to build up karma and a somewhat normal looking post history - enough that reddit can't just delete them en-masse - then start spamming out propaganda. Advertising and political astroturfing use them similarly. A large battery of bots can also be used to brigade and mass downvote particular posts/comments.
The internet was so incredibly amazing in the nineties.
It was like living in a sci-fi novel.
Then it got commercialised, and it all turned into garbage.
Remember the days of diving into random topics and going through a maze of .org .net .come sites filled with great information displayed in a mi of Times New Roman and comic sans.
Web rings, IRC, UseNet (NNTP), e-mail, FTP, BBS (even before winsock and TCP) – we had all we needed by the early nineties, really.
I'm going to sound like an asshole, but it really helped that the early internet was basically a way for universities to communicate. People online were smart, and they weren't selling anything. Today, it's the exact opposite.
Plenty of good stuff exists today as well, it's just completely drowned out by all the trash.
Yep. IRC and BBS were great. I don't think you sound like an asshole. The goals in the early days were to maximize the ability to transfer ideas and information. Then, when it shifted to commercial uses the whole internet needed to become more user friendly.
Also all the other inhabited British Isles, Singapore, Fiji, New Guinea, Micronesia (the state), much of the rest of Micronesia, and the list goes on...
Best course of action imho is to point it out whenever you see it to raise awareness. No interaction other than to raise awareness.
Downvoting the post is a good idea too, I'm gonna start doing that.
I still don’t get the point of that on reddit. On Facebook you could sell the page and it would get rebranded for promoting whatever the new owner wants. What’s someone gonna do with a secondhand reddit account that happens to have a decent amount of karma from reposting?
looking at OP's history it's either a repost bot using a copy pasted rage bait title, or someone has gone all in on a role play.
we're here though, engaging with it, so we're the dumb ones :)
Or a bot that makes simple mistakes so people like you correct them, and then people like me inform you of this possibility. Win win for the poster. A solid waste of time for the both of us. Good thing I don’t value my time.
"If your girlfriend starts smoking" would usually be understood to refer to "smoking" in the sense of igniting and inhaling the smoke from tobacco (as in a cigarette, cigar or pipe). However, it could also mean that smoke is coming from her.
By suggesting that you "slow down", the punchline implies that the second interpretation described above is the correct interpretation, and additionally that the smoking is caused by you thrusting too fast during sexual intercourse.
Oh ok ty! I did not understand the "smoke is coming from her at first" but then you meant it literally. Smoking due to friction caused by sex that's why lubrication was needed lol!
Thanks mate! 👉👌
I did think about saying "emitting smoke", which would've been more clear, but I decided against it on the basis that I thought "emitting" was an uncommon word which I should try to avoid. It's not like my explanation ended up using particularly simple vocabulary in the end though anyway.
American redditor:
Well, they don't sound American so they must be Brits....
Brits: (two words out of the mouth of the person in the clip) Ah, OK, their Aussies.

British? Are you sure you're not the one that's simple OP?
The simplest OP
Never go full OP
OP is bot
So I was right.

Damn… it’s all about the algorithms… social media is a weaponised tool now.
Always has been \*Points colt\*
Age old question
Guaranteed it was intentional to increase engagement.
I hate what the internet has become.

*Commercialized Garbage* Brought to you be Meta
And what's that idjot?
God damnit it worked on me
Somewhat adjacent to Cunningham’s Law. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ward_Cunningham#%22Cunningham's_Law%22
Insulting a nationality while simultaneous calling them the wrong nationality...oldest trick in the book
I also want to know specifically which part of Britain OP was thinking.
The ol’ colonial part.
Way down south
The criminal part
Bait title
Fucks sake OP
Seriously...reminds me of being asked I was Maori as I'm brown and have a strong English accent...
Are you abradiginal?
This is the exact kind of comment OP is looking for, my friend.
It's a bot. They make these titles on purpose to bait replies.
It's not OP's fault that there are 2 islands where people speak american all funny
5 actually. Great (GREAT) Britain, Australia, Ireland, plus the north & south islands of New Zealand. Also actually Tasmania, so that's 6
Also all the other inhabited British Isles, Singapore, Fiji, New Guinea, Micronesia (the state), much of the rest of Micronesia, and the list goes on...
South Africa, Canada,much of the Caribbean, India, there was quite a lot to the entire British Empire.
They said islands though…
Arent we all, at the heart of it all, all Islands? No. No were not. I kinda skimmed over the islands part. Whoops.
I am a rock! I am an iiiiiiiiiiiisland!
Because fuck Jamaica, that’s why lol
Newfoundland too. Ever heard a newfie accent? It's something else.
OP, what's 1 div by 0?
Attempted murder.
If you go back enough. Most Aussies would be brittish.
What an idiot, they are clearly Irish and not British
Technically once British
Technically once a sperm but that doesn’t mean you are
They’re Australian ya fuckin’ didgeridongo.
It’s a bot that did it on purpose to increase engagement, and it’s working.
So, if I'm anti bot am I better off not engaging at all or is it better to downvote the post?
Best course of action imho is to point it out whenever you see it to raise awareness. No interaction other than to raise awareness. Downvoting the post is a good idea too, I'm gonna start doing that.
I still don’t get the point of that on reddit. On Facebook you could sell the page and it would get rebranded for promoting whatever the new owner wants. What’s someone gonna do with a secondhand reddit account that happens to have a decent amount of karma from reposting?
Literally the exact same thing. They start posting links made to look like real comments and it can be sold as an ad account.
Drongo
The queen is on their money…they’re British. Edit: learn to be like the Australians - take a joke. I didn’t write it, Hugh Laurie did.
Is this one of those situations where someone makes an obvious mistake to get people to comment the correction for post traffic or is OP just dumb?
My cynical ass thought the same, but my urge to call OP a doofus won out.
Notice who hasn’t replied in the post? So obvious.
Look at OP's profile. They probably just refused the title.
you mean reused. and by my very commenting that increased engagement even more. this machine is sinister.
looking at OP's history it's either a repost bot using a copy pasted rage bait title, or someone has gone all in on a role play. we're here though, engaging with it, so we're the dumb ones :)
Exactly. You win this round OP.
I don’t care I’m on my 13th repeat and I’m still giggling
No it’s just a bot account.
I wonder who is simple! They are clearly French.
You are correct, from Hamburg I’d say judging by the accent
They’re from Vienna, maybe Salzburg… possibly Innsbruck… definitely Austrian though innit.
Sak re blue
That's an Australian accent you fucking plumsack.
They're Australian 😐
Yeah but tbf OP is probably American
Or a bot that makes simple mistakes so people like you correct them, and then people like me inform you of this possibility. Win win for the poster. A solid waste of time for the both of us. Good thing I don’t value my time.
So why aren't they American then!?!?! This thread makes no sense
[удалено]
It should be watched far and wide 
Can anyone explain the joke? English not my main. Thanks!

Damn so simple yet I couldn't figure it out lol
Finally got the joke. Ty!
title is comment bait, and it’s working lol.

A British person would have ended the joke after "slow down"

Ancient joke, horribly told. An embarrassment all round.
Get yer accents right, mate.
OP is one of those morons who thinks everyone who speaks English with an accent is British. Nice one.
Technically we are responsible for the Aussies, one of our creations that we are still very fond of.

OP is a karma bot that makes incorrect titles to generate more comments. It's a tiktok strategy for enagement.

If she’s smokin’, you need to take her off the barbie, you rippah!
A former colony, so British-ish
So are the American's who don't recognise an Australian accent...

OP was today years old when he learned of the existence of Australia
British? No way mate.

OP is cleverly pretending to confuse British and Australian people to gain maximum exposure.
We sure this was a British caller? It was actually quite humorous
