Does anyone know how bobby lemon or mr smithy start posting and make a large platform. Where did he start posting at first I am confused on some things.

nsfw just in case

Original post (on r/ihatethissmug) I found the comment under was talking about an absolutely insufferable comic artist

Found on another sub.

I..I'm speechless

r/brekafats

r/Colon3Supremacy has nothing to do with the digestive tract.

r/antisex

r/aznidentity

It’s pretty much a sub for insecure Asian men (manosphere/incel types). In particular, they get really pissed off when Asian women date non-Asian men (or when the media allegedly promotes such pairings); on the other hand, many of them don’t actually like Asian women anyway and would prefer to date non-Asian ones. Kind of hypocritical, I’d say.

The sub has also been covered in the news media for running Gamergate-style harassment campaigns against Asian women who say things they don’t like.

r/CoherencePhysics

I remember the first time I saw something like this. It was some guy who was extremely prolific on Medium and wrote a lot of detailed posts about something he came up with called “Persistence Theory”, based around a relatively simple mathematical equation.

At first, I was actually quite impressed, given the eclectic nature of the posts (he applied his persistence theory to everything, from biology, to cosmology/physics, to the history of human civilizations, etc.) It reminded me of the glory days of previous centuries, when polymaths were more common and you didn’t have to be “siloed” into one hyper-specialized field.

But I was also confused as to how he could write that much (multiple long blog posts per day). And then one day I tried sharing one of his articles in a Facebook group and someone pointed out that it was AI-generated writing. I should have figured it out, but for some reason I didn’t until someone told me.

So I’m guessing this special needs teacher-turned-“Renaissance man“ is a very similar case; he is making use of AI to fulfill his dream of becoming a polymath of sorts. The only difference is he is explaining everything in terms of “Coherence Physics” instead of “Persistence Theory”. I can sort of relate; when I was younger I wanted to become an expert on lots of different things, too. But this seems dishonest.

And what I don’t get is why his sub seems to be so freakishly popular, with many different contributors. I’m guessing he’s paying to promote his posts, or else he is using AI agents which operate their own Reddit accounts, so that the sub appears to have a lot more users than just him.

I understand that subs with over 100K members aren’t normally allowed here, but in my view that should mean 100K human members. Subs that use bots to artificially inflate their reach (or that appear to be doing so), ought to be fair game.
