Disney/Marvel/StarWars astroturfing?

Im late 20s. None of this stuff interests me but it regularly clogs r/all and r/popular with 50k upvotes within minutes of being posted.

I liked star wars as a kid. But now seeing people rabid about upvoting a purple cartoon gorilla or poorly written fanfiction for a four decade old story about old men fighting with sticks seems odd to me.

Is it real? I'm unsure where the karma farming bots are being sold off to. To be clear if these are your interests I'm not trying to invalidate them I just don't think specific only to reddit there is a massive underlying base of rabid fans for this kind of material.
