    Honestly I’m not sure?? I dont know what the goal of this even is or why it would be done?

    Yes theres a lot of spam of shitty comics but they also tend to get downvoted to hell so thier reach isnt very wide anyway and then the account vanishes.

    There doesnt seem to be much strategy at all and it just fundamentally doesn’t seem like its very effective at doing anything other than being really annoying??

    Theres been a string of accounts being made, spamming content to this community, and then being deleted shortly after.

    On its own thats just kinda annoying and confusing but the main problem comes in when taking account of what content is being spammed. A majority of the comics being posted are either anti-women, racist, or both and with the fact that its pure spam rapidly shot out from random short lived accounts its impossible to keep up with for the moderators. This also means that any form of warning or bans won’t do anything since they aren’t real people and by the time any of those could even happen the account is gone.














  • It wasnt an outcompete thing. They spread by taking over and feasting on other hives and killing everything in it… Hence the “murder” in the name. They were poised to take over local pollinators because North American bees never evolved to combat against this tactic like Asian bees had.

    I do agree though that the name made them sound a lot scarier than they actually were to humans but left unchecked it wouldve been devastating.


  • Idk if I would say “sensationalized”. They were a big issue and there was a very large coordinated effort to get rid of them that was incredibly successful.

    Its similar to y2k in the sense that it was a big issue but it was dealt with so well that everything people were worried about was avoided entirely.
