    I don’t comment on UK politics, despite the fact that I watch a British alternative media news source daily. I’m sorry, I just genuinely didn’t expect someone to be calling me a bot (I may not have many comments, but they’re fairly varied) and have them be from another country. You caught me off guard.

    But I think its shitty that you think my account is suspicious. Sorry I couldn’t transfer my Reddit account over so that you can see every comment I’ve made going back to 2010.

      Three month account with single comment three month ago and then straight to a copypasta worthy political rent. Like what should I think?

      US, politics affects Europe quite a bit - so kind of understandable.

        I have 3 comments from before that “copypasta worthy political rant.” You realize copypastas have to be copied from somewhere right? So all copypastas were at some point posted by a real person. Maybe think about that.

        I get that US politics affects other countries. But why should you be attacking me as a bot off of one comment against a politician who isn’t in your country? Like… You were an asshole. I’m sorry that I connected your behavior with my own country. You just act so much like one of us.

          Interesting I don’t see the other comments but they appear in the count. Might be from instances feddit does not fedderelise with or some bug.

          Sure, that’s right - but there is also something in that initial text that makes people think, hey that’s a copypasta lets spread it. Maybe think about this.

          Again, I just found your initial comment funny - it sounded like a typical political copy pasta and my response was in no means targeted at specific politics. The bot assumption came after you answered and I looked at your comments and was even more of a joking manner.

          Like… You were an asshole.

          Pretty sure sometimes I am, like everyone else. Not sure it was this time. But I will agree that I jumped to conclusions and didn’t engage you in a serious but rather attacked you based on my assumptions. Sorry about that, if you are not a bot and you expressed a genuine opinion that just sounded to me like a copy pasta - that would have been a bit of an asshole move on my side.

          You just act so much like one of us.

          Now I’m offended. /s But I also kind of deserve it.
