A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

I edited my comment to expand because probably a lot of people don't realize their being manipulated. You bring up a good point though, because you're right. The reason it feels like there's so many polarizing takes and arguments in comments and bot generated discussion is because there is - think about it, say you're like me/most people and rather than go to the link you just go right to the comments. Well if you see "people" arguing back and forth and posting polar takes, you're more likely to go to the article and form your own opinion.
