Its like Hillary walking into a working class kitchen for the first time.
They’ve been shielded from even critical support of China and other AES for so long they literally, not figuratively, literally cannot process that people exist that have beliefs that aren’t Reddit Approved. They immediately assume it’s bots or wumao. Human beings can’t possibly hold these beliefs, so they must be Oriental hordes or actual robots.
We really need more bots. Amber bot, for old times sake, a bot bot, a combat liberalism bot that uses an LLM to make up completely unhinged mao quotes about doing kung-fu at Rothbard.
I thought we had an amber bot. I think lemmygrad has a parenti quote bot

Idk, haven’t seen it in a while. Maybe one of the recent updates broke it
Hexbear codebase merging back into Lemmy broke it :(
(Before federation)
I miss it. Going “who’s everyone’s favorite Chapo? Mine’s Amber.” Thereby triggering the bot and editing my post to say Will was peak posting
I’m the amber bot dev. The API change broke it and I just didn’t have enough free time to fix it. Gonna try to get it back up this weekend
I have some free time in between jobs coming up. I’m thinking of working on some hobby programming projects. I think it’d be fun to work on some lemmy-compatible bots. I’m open to ideas on what they should do.

honestly, a combat liberalism bot that responds to comments with “lib”, “liberalism” or the lib emoji with a randomly selected description of one of the types of liberalism and maybe one of the mao emojis could be so simple and elegant.
