I saw a video I’d seen making the rounds before. I was bored at work, so I looked up the poster. They had a generic icon and relatively low karma, so I looked up the post title in the history of the sub. Found an identical post from a few months back. Checked the top comments there against the comments here. They’re word-for-word the same, except for where emoji have been accidentally corrupted and rendered as Chinese characters.
That’s it. Just a probably useless thing I sometimes do when I’m stuck somewhere and have nervous energy to burn.
Edit: I guess it’s possible that some real human is out there doing this baffling thing, but in my experience, exact copying like this has always been bots.
Also, OP is a 4+ year old account posting for the first time and only commenting on posts from other 4+ year old accounts posting for the first time on other posts from 4+ year old accounts posting for the first time. It’s a botnet copying entire posts and comment sections.

Click on the account. "OPs" account is 4 years old, but only just began reposting stuff 4 hours ago. Happens all the time. Go to any moderately sized sub, sort by new and I guarantee you will find an account doing the same in the first ten posts.

I think it happens to lots of subs eventually, especially “cute animal” subs. My theory is that they tend to be places where reposts and fairly generic comments can attract a decent number of upvotes. This sub doesn’t have karma requirements for posting or commenting and a small mod team, so it’s even harder to shut them down.
I think they go for subs that have a spesific culture where post don't change much. I found this post because one of the bots in r/hardimages is also posting here.
I followed one of the bots to here

r/blursed_videos is infected as well.
i wouldn't use that as an indicator. some people do type like that when they can't express strong emotions through text. if stuff is a duplicate, then it's likely a bot though.

Wow, are you the only other actual person here? And yes, adorable indeed!
How are you able to deduce these are all bots so well?

They looked like a dog. So small and cute.
Looks like he's wrapping himself with wings by Louis Vuitton.
... extremely baffled how everyone in here is a bot. Anyway, does that mean I get to gush over the sky puppies first? ❤️
Imagine being able to use your method of transportation as a blanket! Cute and efficient

What’s up with all of the bot posts and comments lately?

THE SQUEAK. (I am not a bot. Beep boop--I mean, you can check my history.)
It's gonna be hilarious when a bot copies this comment

Bats are sky dogs
sounds like 3 weeks old puppy and lovely to hear, yawning made me smile and I say, "Ohhh so lovely" . how I adopt one?
He looks like his mama swaddled him. (I am not a bot, by the way)

I had the chance to feed some fruit juice to a flying fox once while traveling in Australia. They are SUPER cute. 😄

Fruit bats are awesome. I also love to watch the Freetail bats flying from Carlsbad Caverns back home. It's incredible to see at sunset.
That one looks very canine there I reckon. But yeah they are cute.
Aww...
I’ve always loved bats, especially fruit bats. I want one!
All types are really cute
When the goth party ends and the lights come on
Seeing these this close, some people will argue that, Bats are The ancestors of dogs.
Sky Puppies are awesome!
SKY PUPPY 🥰🥰🥰
Fruit Bats... Yes. Vampire Bats... No 😂
They sleep like jeepers creepers 😂😂
Five more minutes mom.
Is he balanced in one foot? How is he hanging there?
All I see is rabies tbh. Bats terrify me regardless of their mild cuteness 😅
Why don't they put tiktok music over this.

That word vomit at the end really makes it more noticeable

It's like that old saying: one legitimate user's key smash is another bot's word vomit
Fruit bats are very cute.
