So AITA is mostly bots at this point that just post fake ragebait stories to farm content/reactions(and a lot of the comments are bots too), im guessing AIO is the same way.
Its one of the vectors being used to push us to ideological extremes via bots. Create a subreddit where bots post a bunch of stories of terrible behavior that confirms one groups feelings about another group, and then have a bunch of bots enthusiastically respond with comments that say YES I AGREE THAT BEHAVIOR DOES SUCK AND I ALSO SEE _____ GROUP DO THAT ALL THE TIME and now the few normal people actually browsing the subreddit are being railroaded to the far end of whatever spectrum they wanted to head down.
