Who do you think is paying random Lemmy users to complain about headlines on news articles? Seriously, who do you imagine is behind such a ridiculous conspiracy? Where is the value in such activity?
Also, upvotes are public. We can see who upvoted him, and it wasn’t bots.

How can you possibly know if an account is or is not a bot in this age of LLMs?
And the value is where it’s always been - astroturfing.
You tell us, you’re the one saying the other guy was “clearly upvoted by bots”, you show us how you came to that conclusion, chief.

“Bots exist” isn’t an answer to “prove that post was upvoted by bots”.
Quit being obnoxious, my guy.
