UZ made its bots say "I am a trauma counselor", "I am a Black man" etc.

& found it was 6 times more effective to shut up people, or change their opinions, as regular commenters

don't buy it

be informed

being informed - ignore it, cancel it

anytime person resorts to "I am a.......and I think that......" assume FAKE

Nother classic fake is "I'm a 90-time Trump voter and he just lost me, even I now see that [lib viewpoint]"

Person is always either 1. pedo of Lincoln Project, 2. pedo of Antifa, 3. paid Iranian, 4. paid Chinese.

Nother is "I'm a moderate and would consider a moderate Republican vote if only you could see [lib viewpoint]....."

Person is always 10,000,000,000% lib & liar. RED red flag.

Nother is "I really like what u said flattery flattery" & then, down road later, person wants to justify pedo MAP & child trans, becuz we're friends rite?

Someone here tried that on me once it did not go well for them, & they ragequit

It doesn't surprise me in the least.
