If you've been at Reddit for a while, you recognize all those blantant bot-driven reposts. It's really something. The same old screenshot of some tweet being reposted hundreds of times. The same questions in /r/askreddit with the same old answers. Memes that are repeating on a fixed schedule. The same ragebait content enraging the second generation of a family.
