Granted they are publicly traded and sure organized racket money dwarves for a policy traded company. However, if we step back from the making money side, there are real sovereign reasons for wanting to explicitly and implicitly allow for bot networks to operate.

First and foremost is the destruction of organization of people. If you’ll recall, Reddit used to be an oasis of the internet. Growing up, I was always in awe of the intelligent and impactful discussions that would occur organically (something Hacker News can’t even rival). Now, it’s slop.

There is real value there that Reddit is offering the government. I’m sure other foreign governments (the globalists) also benefit from a weaker people. So I’d imagine it’s the kind of racket that is so high-up, secretive, and decentralized that there is no real culpability and everyone is aware (except the people).
