I don't know how it works, but there's clear selective targeting that happens.
On most posts where someone says absolutely idiotic leftish shit, there will be nothing but mockery in the replies or comment section. On most posts where some idiot like Dan Crenshaw says something idiotic, it will be nothing but mockery in response. And the responses will always be varied -- some meme images, some one-line zingers, some longer responses.
It's like back in the days before Youtube hid the dislike counts, damn near everything that should have been heavily disliked was heavily disliked. The White House couldn't release a single video that wasn't 90%+ disliked.
But occasionally, there will be a post that's been targeted for manipulation where a flood of bot-like responses will come out of the woodworks that are all basically some form of "you're so right" or "you're so wrong" or some other generic off-topic derailment ("he's a convicted felon").
Now if all of those types of responses appeared to varying degrees on all posts, it wouldn't be so weird. But they don't. They just appear en masse on random posts but not others.
