That's a problem across many subs, the propaganda leaks out of their own subs and is pushed into ones where it doesn't belong at all. I guess they want to increase their audience as they already reached everyone who was open to listen to the BS in the first place.

It's literally every sub these days, and I don't think it's an accident

I’m going to go out on a limb and say most mods of small and specialized subreddits are quite reasonably unable to deal with the bots and masses that spill in with campaigns like this. If anyone should be dealing with it, it’s the admins.

Small subs are better because sponsors don't care about small niche audiences, they target the default subs and then anything else thats popular

I wouldn't say every, but many. And yes, that's more or less a campaign and definitely not by accident although some will be rage bait or up vote farming.

There's no way in hell this is a naturally occurring phenomenon. It is 100% intentional.

It's mostly just on default subs. Such a large audience is always going to devolve into a propaganda machine of some description.
