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" :)

Money isn’t fakeable, whether one person mints for 1e or 1k do for .001e it’s the same

the point isn’t about money, it’s about intellectual honesty. there are kinda 2 options here otherwise you just talk out of both sides of your mouth

-talk/brag about the $ you make from farmers, but don’t complain about replies

-complain about farmer replies, but don’t talk/brag about the $ you make from them

If bots passed as real users the way minting bots pass as real minters I think people would complain less. 
I expect the solution to bots won’t be no bots but actually better bots
