users will complain about posting content on a platform that gets engagement primarily from "bots", yet will brag about how many mints their NFT got in a campaign minted primarily by "bots"

so bots are good if giving $$, but bad if giving replies??

to quote @geoffgolberg, "the cognitive dissonance is strong here" :)

It's fascinating how quickly the perspective shifts when it comes to bots! If the engagement brings in revenue, bots are suddenly welcome at the party, but for authentic conversations, they're frowned upon. Speaks volumes about our priorities, doesn't it? Cognitive dissonance indeed!
