So, these fake online personas could very well be AI! Programmed accordingly with disinfo and psyops tactics... actually they can be mostly efficient
for staying active online 24-hours a day, where even the biggest no-lifer would fail!
That's an interesting speculation, I didn't follow on the development of AI this last decade but my first thought is that engaging on forums without
human control sounds like science-fiction ! But what do I know about AI ? not so much (anymore) so ...
Off-topic : I have to admit I have suspected google to use some sort of IA technology for their search engine, like a self-learning knowledge base
layer running the (so huge) database and my paranoid mind fear the whole system is/could become a "skynet" type, but yep full unprovable
speculation.

maybe (to start with) you never come across any of those pro-israël/anti-muslim thread ? (see the article about undercover agents from hasbara
www.atlanticfreepress.com...)
and maybe you didn't read the quote from HB Gary email, nor bother to view the full document from the link)
To build this capability we will create a set of personas on twitter, blogs, forums, buzz, and myspace
emphasize is mine
since ATS is, if not the biggest, at least one of the biggest news, alternative news & conspiracy forum on the english web, i seriously fail to
imagine how they could keep it out of their "media-planning".
Then once again read again the first part about the WHY and the psychological mechanism involved (and who they are really targeting).
What are these phases again in the process of accepting a truth ? denial, negotiation, depression, acceptance ? looking at your post, you'd be at the
negotiation step, so right on path->don't worry you'll be fine.
