In some ways it is easier if it comes from one account. Easier to block if you don't like, and less chance of duplicate posts.
I guess I'm not seeing the issue from having it come from one bot.
Huh, I wonder if it's the same person behind mustachius that keeps posting on history memes, it's the same MO
if it was just one bot it wouldn't be as much of an issue, the problem is it's more than one. I've already blocked two eerily similar repost accounts on other comms and I don't want to keep playing whack-a-mole
