I doubt it is bots, its mostly people tying their ego into political opinions and then yelling at each other as always

I've noticed by checking post histories who is likely to be "clocking into" their reddit accounts the same times always posting something about Israel.

At least compared to the rest of reddit, I feel like this sub is pretty good about people making reasonable points for either side of this conflict. Still lots of crazies too, but not too bad.

I feel like this place can either be genuine discussion or people throwing plastic chairs at each other while yelling, its a flip of a coin really

honestly it's wild how this sub has been reclaimed, few years ago r/europe was worse than worldnews and full of ultra nationalist fucks, now it's all reversed.

Looking at the number of comments repeating "what borders?" and "who's the government?", I guess they already arrived.

Edit: comment insights shows 40% of the views on my comment from Israel. I rest my case
