Reddit Thought-Police-Bot 🕵️👁️
Thought-Police-Bot is a Reddit bot that can be called to investigate a Redditor by using sentiment analysis to evaluate the overall toxicity or wholesome-ness of their profile. Mentioning "/u/thought-police-bot" in a comment on Reddit will trigger an investigation of the author of the comment/post replied to.
Thought-Police-Bot isn't live right now but you can check out the comment history to see it in action.
Background
On Reddit, everyone's history is on public display, and is set in stone after 6 months. I think judging someone's character based on their comment history alone is a funny but also dystopian reminder of this fact. I named it after the Thought Police in George Orwell's 1984.
Thought-Police-Bot is built with Python libraries PRAW for interacting with Reddit, TextBlob for performing the sentiment analysis, and is hosted on AWS EC2.
