    There’s a lot of Reddit bots for the guy for an election that’s in June 2026. And some of them seem conservative or worse at the same time. 👀

    This post history for Platner is absolutely bizarre. Just non-stop Platner…

    I’ve never seen profiles for a single thing like this before. I honestly hope these are bots or a paid team.

    When I made this list a few days ago, basically all of them talked about Planter almost every day, or something like that, for the past 14 days. I noticed that some of them started posting more about other stuff after I first shared this list.

    On the flip side while going down these threads, I feel like I found accounts in the opposite direction as well confirming dead internet theory. 👻

    But it was like a 6:1 ratio. Bots/teams arguing with other bots/teams. 🤦🏻‍♀️

    Sorry for the long comment but just I don’t think this Platner stuff is organic. I don’t know who would do this. Psyop or something idk.

    I think Hasan Piker likes Janet Mills or something.

    Method for anyone curious- Replace the username in this link, download the json file, drop it into chatgpt to do the analysis for you, or you can convert it into a csv file and DIY but I prefer AI doing the heavy-lifting. Faster that way but I’m not double-checking my work because I’m not a journalist, so take it with a grain of salt.

    I posted this on Reddit but the DemSoc mod removed it as spam. Not really sure how to get more eyes on this super weird behavior.
