Wild that folks are having to make up conspiracy theories to hate on a game. They can just hate on it for having kernel level anti-cheat and preventing linux players from giving it a go.

I hate to wear some tinfoil but I’d 100% be unsurprised if Bungie or Sony were doing ‘marketing campaigns’ using stuff like astroturfing to promote their game. Its not really uncommon on Reddit and I have seen small/medium sized companies attempt stuff like this in an attempt to go viral.
All that being said, there’s absolutely no way bigger companies like that would 1.) be using Discord to conduct this and 2.) paying randoms to do so. There are much easier ways to go about doing this.
They gave all the big subs to corporate overloads well over a decade ago.
The general “tech” subs had mods bought off long ago for general shit
$200 to nuke a topic is nothing to these companies, but an insane amount of motivation to unpaid mods.
It doesn’t take long till the motivation from bribes pushes out anyone without that motivation, and that’s not even getting into how small the circle of mods really is due to years of “add backs”.
Like, at this point we should all accept that real life conspiracies don’t have to involve James Bond. It can be a bunch of idiots doing incredibly transparent and ineffective shit.
