    Is this serious?

    It’s probably just a conflict bot, trying to get people to argue with each other.

      I checked their profile and it’s a lot of normal human posts. Not even often political I think my own history has more political takes.

        A lack of political takes/posts is actually kind of an indicator of a conflict bot; as they tend to make a bunch of random non-argumentative posts as a history background, and then be used just for a while for conflict, then disappear.

        But yeah it can also just be somebody trolling as well.

        “It’s a bot” is currently the go-to claim whenever you want to use what was said in an attempt to confirm what you already believe.
