Paid comments which try to hide the fact that they are paid comments are deceptive (and probably unethical), and if they are for a political purpose, they are also propoganda?<p>This seems like a fairly reasonable criterion(?) to me.<p>I don&#x27;t know whether the comments in question hide the fact that they are paid comments. If they don&#x27;t, and are up front about it, I suppose that isn&#x27;t inherently very deceptive, and probably not really propoganda in any strong sense.
