A lot of those spam/bot accounts show up and comment when certain hashtags are used. So the “promote it on newhampshire_blahblah” will comment that on everything that uses the hashtag # newhampshire, etc. The industry I work in has the same thing, every time somebody uses industry specific hashtags, the bots show up to comment. Instagram is dying a slow death just like FB did

This is basically it. Not complicated at all. The bots probably run off a script and anytime certain hashtags are used they will auto-reply.
