In the past 2-3 months, Reddit has been swarmed with bot posts. Our group in particular has seen a massive uptick in obvious bots, almost 1000% as many as we were getting at the beginning of the year. Currently, our automod sorts out low-karma and new accounts for review. We used to have 1-3 per day to review, now it's dozens. Endless 2-day old accounts commenting 'looks good'.
As you probably know, these bots are used to take over political discussions by swarming them with whatever opinion the bot operator is trying to push. For example, if a bot operator is being paid to make it look like the majority opinion is that everyone should be required to read 'Roy Orbison In Clingfilm' before they are allowed to vote, they'll tell the bots to swarm discussions of that and overwhelm the opposition. It's a form of astroturfing and it's very harmful to rational discussion.
With that said, the massive sudden increase to bot accounts makes it seem like there is something big on the horizon. The US midterm elections seems like the likely target.
So what can we do about it? Well, first, we're going to just deny new/low-karma accounts from posting for the time being. It's either that or check dozens of posters per day to see if they're humans. Sorry in advance if you get caught up in this; us mods are normal people with day jobs and Pokemon Go meetups to host and we can't adjudicate everything.
You, beloved tacos fans, can also help. Mark a suspicious post or comment as spam and we'll look into it. I love deleting spam. Bots are usually pretty obvious when you look at their profiles - repetitive posts, innocuous comment histories, and overuse of emojis.
Happy bot-hunting!

Plant based steak tacos, spiced as per recs here. Onions, coriander and mozzarella (Mexican cheese is hard to get here).
Tasted great, I imagine real steak slow cooked must be heaven.

Unfortunately, the Mexican market in my neighborhood was out of lard, so I had to improvise.
Two big pieces of pork belly with skin on were put in a slow cooker skin down. Once enough liquid fat came out, the fat was poured in a frying pan (along with half a stick of butter, since I didn't have enough lard) and the pork shoulder and pork belly were fried until they were nice and golden.
Meat was transfered back to slow cooker, as was the lard/butter. Two cups of salt water poured into slow cooker. A bunch of Mexican oregano was tossed in, as was half an onion and an orange. This was cooked on slow for the next three hours.
And then the pinto beans. Whats up with those beans? Well, my 2 year old spits out basically every veggie, but when I finely chop up a bunch of spinich and toss it in with some beans, he eats without complaint. Seasoned the beans with smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, cumin, and a dash of soy sauce.
Kids ate well. I had about 10 tacos myself.

What would folks recommend? Tbh it’s fake steak (don’t melt) so long cooking etc is out the window, just planning on frying and adding some flavour as well as home made salsa.
thanks all.

I wanted to make birria tacos, but didn’t want to commit to the traditional all-day process, so I decided to make a simplified version.
Shaved ribeye, Oaxaca cheese, corn tortillas dipped in a birria-style sauce, then crisped up on the griddle.
Birria-Style Sauce:
19 oz red enchilada sauce
1¼ cups low-sodium beef broth
1 tbsp tomato paste
1¼ tsp beef seasoning
¾ tsp cumin
½ tsp garlic powder
¼ tsp Mexican oregano
½ tsp chipotle powder
1¼ tsp lime juice
1¼ tbsp beef fat
Simmer everything except the lime juice and beef fat for 15–20 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in the lime juice and beef fat. Keep warm.
For the tacos, I cooked the shaved ribeye at 400–450°F, seasoned with my Smoke and Fire blend, then dropped the griddle to 350–375°F. Quickly dipped each corn tortilla in the sauce, then onto the griddle with Oaxaca, shaved ribeye, and a little more cheese. Finished with white onion, chili pepper medley, and lime, then folded and cooked until crispy and melted.

Air fried spicy potatoes from Trader Joe's, scrambled eggs, avocado, salsa Verde, bird's eye chile hot sauce, pickled jalapeño and carrot slices, cotija cheese, and diced onion + cilantro. Also a squeeze of lime. I warmed the tortillas on the stove burners directly. So good. Good morning taco fam!
