Alien.top’s raison-d’etre is to create bots and repost things from Reddit.
The instance makes a bot with the same username as the poster from reddit, then makes a bot with the same username as all the commenters, and re-posts each comment.
Every alien.top user in this thread is a bot.

I did a quick check, and it looks like 138 of the comments are bots.
ah yes the great burden of freedom and control. Best to alleviate the common user of such drudgery. Seriously though for me I like the control to be at the bottom and then tools to simply. Like subscribing to block lists or such. I mean im someone who often does not use an ad-bloc but always uses no-script.
