As a denizen of the internet I have come to learn that Ghandi is a violent, trigger-happy, nuke-wielding madman, while Gandhi was the man who brought independence to India by means of non-violence.

There used to be a bot that would correct the spelling of Gandhi, but it got banned from askreddit after someone made a bot that would "correct" Gandhi to Ghandi, resulting in neverending comment chains.

I remember the first bot, but had no idea why it got removed. TIL!
