i remember they used to steal comments from real people.
I am so grateful for this post! You always post such interesting content. 🦐⛹️♂️📷
I think I’m blessed if not I wouldn’t have met Swirvel Handgwendt. She is a spectacular financial expert and saved me thousands every month! 💲💵🤑🙏
I literally just saw a thread of these comments on a video. It was like 100 comments deep as well.
I make $48k biweekly and was only JUST able to buy a house.
Yes, I will only settle for a massively overpriced mcmansion, why do you ask?
Ah this is a whole different set of bots.
The ones in the OP seem to be advertising a different youtube channel that then links to a website that supposedly contains nudes. That’s pretty new
The one in yours, the “multiple people discussing a way to get rich” chain is pretty old by now, has been going on for at least 2-3 years.
Nobody cares bro. My farts smell better than yours
The middle finger at the end of the fourth one 😂
That is an index finger.
EDIT: Well, color me corrected, weird flex!
Sorry, that is all the pixels this gives:
You’re right.
The two “index finger pointing up” emojis are 👆 and ☝️. This one is 🖕.
You’re right.
Nope, it’s the middle.
You’re right.
Your post is very fascinatingly infuriating and very creatively mildly. Thoughts and Prayers

You know they’re fake because real YouTube commentors only have two modes:
“Who’s watching in 2025” and “No one: Not a single soul:”
Don’t worry, sometimes the bots do that first one and use some future year like 2036 to farm engagement.

Am I the only one who has assumed any account using the format “Firstname LastName” since the early 2000’s is a bot, because real people generally make creative usernames?
I know it doesn’t exactly work in the age of Twitter, where so many people were never taught basic online safety guidelines, which included NOT USING YOUR REAL GOD DAMN NAME, but old habits die hard.
I’ve had my Google account for over a decade. At some point, I noticed my YouTube handle was just my name, and I don’t remember setting it to that.
On pretty much all websites, I have a default username I try to use, but I don’t remember getting that option when making a Google account
At some point YouTube tried to force you to use your real name.
I noticed it when the display name changed from my account to the made up name I used for the account.
Google+ changed my YouTube username to my real name lol
for whatever reason i ended up with my real name associated with my google account, but thankfully you can just lie and say your name is “Phuck Yuu” or whatever else is fun when split in twain
There’s a counterpoint to that. In real hard truth, nobody is anonymous and creative handles can be traced back to a name easily.
But having pseudonyms affects human psychology. And makes people post things they wouldn’t want to be traced to them. And do things.
There was a time when it seemed that everything is insecure. That time didn’t end. Just with HTTPS everywhere and encrypted everything and with glossy appearances people have genuinely lost all understanding of the real world.
They think, metaphorically, that if there’s no name written on their door, everyone who asks can’t learn who they are.
Or Noun-NounNumber
Like Jesus, mix it up. Even my ex wasn’t so boring with her usernames

Google defaults new accounts to use the name they use for their email account unless you make a “brand account” IIRC which is actually fucking stupid
These are all almost names in the same way. It makes me wonder if they’re variants in a language I’ve never seen before or (imo more likely) someone prompted ai for women’s usernames and it got confused by the cutesy ways people used to augment their names for usernames.
What if you have a made up internet name?
🤞✨🖕
I noticed the middle finger in the next to last one too.
How long until the Internet is so full of bots and AI spam that it becomes impossible to even find our fellow humans amid the noise?
For most? We’re already there, fellow human. 💀😅🧠
Is there any difference?

Thanks for making such a great post! Your content is always insightful and funny, keep it up! 👉👌🥵
I noticed a pattern. So many comments have that same emoji spam pattern, even if they seem different. Something seemed off for a while now.
No idea what you are talking about 👉 🥺 👈
The random middle finger in the 4th one is sending me lmao
One day openai will drop a new model that uses fewer emojis, affecting a billion comments sections all over the internet
It’s morbidly amusing that spammers all use the same service, the same way (the cheapest OpenAI API, I guess? Which is notorious for this style.)
And a silver lining. I could finetune a dirt cheap open model as a SEO/Engagement bot with very different styles, but ‘spammer culture’ seems to mass around the most popular denomenators when they find one. With such uniformity, I could also train a mediocre detector, based on overused tokens and something similar to the ‘slop profiles’ of EQ-Bench: https://eqbench.com/creative_writing.html
(This is based on a storywriting prompt, but social media ‘vocabulary’ could be profiled the same way).
In other words, its fortunate the spambots are such overpriced junk when they could easily not be.

The ones you notice are overpriced junk. I’m convinced that this is on purpose, to make us less suspicious of the more convincing bots
I dunno if it’s on purpose, but you make a good point.
How to kill a dead internet…
Oh wow, I was like “interesting, haven’t seen these” seeing the three emojis and stuff on yours
However
To test the theory, I (a car nut) went to one of the biggest automotive YouTubers, Mat Armstrong, who’s currently rebuilding his dad’s dream car and released the last video 2 days ago.
Two comments, different profile, same profile pic that, zoomed out enough, looks like a vagina. Go on the profile and they both look like this:
Edit: spoiler tag wasn’t working for everyone. Long story short, they linked another channel with a bottomless lady for the thumbnail
Damn the thirst trap is real. Also the fact the profile pic looks like a vagina thing is so crazy (and obviously intentional). It definitely did make me want to see what the actual profile pic was though so +1 engagement point for the bot?
Just FYI your spoiler tag doesn’t work for me
Removed the image to avoid traumatizing anyone else whose app might not work properly with spoiler tags
Me neither but I think it’s the app I’m using and not the commenter doing it wrong. I’m using sync on Android.
I think some Markdown interpreters don’t like having images in the spoiler tags.
I’m not sure if the Markdown spec specifies about images.
The worst is when you see a low sub count channel owner respond with the sincerest gratitude, like it really made their day to get such a supportive comment. I never have the heart to tell them, but I do try to leave an actual supportive comment of my own to sort of balance it out
