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??

that actually makes sense?

money is money, likes are status. bots don't have status.

sure, you guys are right but to me, based on my values and what motivates me, it matters where i get my $$ from

would i rather get $1M from selling a company i built or $1M from OnlyFans

obvious answer

Yeah, but Ted seems to be speaking to the general hypocrisy of the complaints. If you want to eradicate bots, you want to eradicate, you can't want them to only do the things you want them to. That's also irrational.
