Pretty antisemitic of the New York Times to use the phrase "Jewish parents" in place of the more correct "monstrous supporters of a brutal genocide," as if the two mean the same thing. No decent parent (nor, indeed, person of any kind), Jewish or otherwise, has any problem with Ms. Rachel's position.
If you want a grounding in the basics of how computer exploits work, getting your hands on a copy of Hacking: The Art of Exploitation by Jon Erickson is a decent choice. It's an old book, and things have advanced significantly since then, but the stuff it goes over is still the core of how hacking actually works.
We need to get the other mod of that comm banned on here, that person's mod actions are still federating at the moment
I showed up in one of their "evil tankie" screenshots, I'm so proud 
Wait are you saying the pigpoopballs drawing is a Republican/transphobe/"unhealed" person (lmao), or that I am? Much funnier if it's the latter
Lmao, tell me you know nothing about Hexbear without telling me you know nothing about Hexbear.
I could argue with you, but that would be an unpleasant waste of time. Instead, behold an image depicting an item of value equal to that of your pontification:
As a dork sandwich, I feel personally attacked
Due to the particulars of the Active sort algorithm, bumping stops being very effective sometime before 12 hours after the post is made, which a bot would not counteract.
That said, I have long been planning to put together a basic bumper-bot that would, upon being triggered in a thread, reply every 10 to 30 mins (not sure what the optimal frequency is) to keep the thread bumped for a certain amount of time (also not entirely sure on this number, but overall duration would be at least a few hours).
This doesn't keep threads around longer than they can last now, but will be more consistent than human bumpers, and will allow mods to ban the other bots from the comm, since their instant replies don't really affect the ranking at all (it's based on the timestamp of the most recent comment, nothing else).
My initial instinct was to read it the first way, and a look into their posting history confirms this, I think.
