"It really makes me wonder how much of our user base is bots and shills vs real people"
Well, we're all here from being censored, corralled, shutdown, and cornholed by the controlled MSM apparatus so one can safely assume based on pattern recognition of regular contribution & lurking that the majority of our users are legit.
Plus, mods do a phenomenal job here removing obvious trolls & shills. The not so obvious ones use familiar tactics and are eventually dealt with as well. Hard to catch a sleeper acct while they are ZzZzZ.
