If your response to every bit of news that contradicts your worldview is a reflexive "it's made up", then reality has come apart at the seams and nothing is real.

That's not my response to every bit of news, but this article is about as content free as it gets. A bit of substantiation would go a long way towards covering the 'reveal' in the title, as it is not much of anything is revealed.

The recorded live chat to the side of that video is one of the most bizarre-o things I've seen. Literally ran like a few bots ended up in the chat together and kept firing off like in https://www.reddit.com/r/SubredditSimulator/

Good find, thank you. That contains a ton of information that would have made the article a lot more useful.

This is jacquesm. jacquesm usually is reasonable AFAIK.

So I argue we do not go down this road right away.
