Is this new to post-blackout reddit is or has it been this way for a while. Top post of r/all is a tweet from like 2 years ago about a "current event" that no one has talked about since then and 100% of the comments are talking about this like this topic is the focus of today's or any recent time's 24 hour news cycle. Nearly 30K upvotes. 100 comments. Feels like ai/bot cosplaying what an actual hot reddit post would be like but in a world without people.

I’ve noticed the exact same thing. Every time I see a post referencing events from three years ago I automatically assume it’s a bot. I always thought the people who commented as if these events were still current were insane. I guess it would make sense that they’re bots too.
