Lots of smaller communities still have active human populations. It is, somewhat paradoxically, the most active subs that have the least real people.

active subs like ... r/news r/politics ?

I guess manipulating those is seen as essential by some.

/r/news in particular. Heavily censored and crawling with bots.
