    Anyone else notice the bots with 5 letter names spam posting comics here? Didn’t take long for bot infiltration and karma farming to infect the fediverse.

      I’m not sure why anyone would think “karma farming” would accomplish anything here. Can most users even see the karma others have on Lemmy? I know I can’t.

        There is karma on Lemmy?

          It is kept track of, but I’ve never been able to see it in any of the clients I’ve used to view Lemmy.

        It makes the account seem legitimate, same as on Reddit.

    “Now go tell those experts who the real guy who once read a blog is” is my new favourite response

      Also impressive:

      Wow! I used to be a sad loser who lost my kids from drinking too much, but now I’m Neo from the Matrix. Hya!

    Killer comic. Last panel’s a little weak though. Maybe it should break the fourth wall, like the guy looks at the reader and is like: “This is causing all the world’s problems.”

      There’s a trope that many comics can be improved, if you remove the last panel. I do believe this to be one such case…

      I think removing the text bubble and just having the character’s shocked impression would be a good choice.

    I prefer the conspiracy ouroboros:

    Conspiracy theories do not generate spontaneously. They’re all crafted deliberately by a nefarious cabal of corporate interests to distract and manipulate the public.

      As someone who also has no talent or expertise, the comic does make it seem kind of appealing

      The great part is, you don’t even have to have read a blog! Even merely having learned to speak is sufficient!

      And maybe not even that! Wild howling! Guttural noises! Ooga-booga! Ugg! Waaga! Eeegh-eeegh-eEeEe!

      … I fear I may be too good at this.

          Yeah. I like that their campaign slogan font is noticeably different than the previous deranged, delusional, maniac overlords. It’s a refreshing change.
