    Every single morning my mother would make me a big bowl of sauerkraut for breakfast. A big bowl of sauerkraut. Every single morning. It was driving me crazy. I said to my mom, I said “Hey, mom, what’s with all the sauerkraut?” And my dear, sweet mother she just looked at me like a cow looks at an oncoming train and she leaned right down next to me and she said “IT’S GOOD FOR YOU” and then she tied me to the wall and stuck a funnel in my mouth and force fed me nothing but sauerkraut until I was twenty six and a half years old.

    Interesting. I’d like to know more about this if you can provide any further info (ex. what community or instance was the post on, how recently was the bot comment).

    I’ve definitely seen a number of sus accounts but they’re usually few and far between, and oftentimes get addressed immediately. There is a problem with how bad actors can join so many different instances or create instances of their own to cause problems.

    EDIT: I think I’ve found it. Doesn’t seem to be a full on bot account but the comment is AI slop that a human probably chose to comment for whatever reason

    For one of those companies, that was probably true. They had been increasingly profitable for all ~15 years they had been open, most of the white-collar employees were vocally pro-Trump, and then there was chitchat over how tariffs are making it difficult to produce our goods (we had used aluminum and a lot of other imported materials), and I doubt half of them ever put two and two together.

    “You’re certainly qualified for this job and we’d love to have you. Welcome aboard!”

    Some time later:

    “Sorry, we can’t afford to pay our employees to continue doing their jobs so we’re going to have to let you go”

    This has happened twice to me within the past year.
