Discord py forward messages(with embeds) sent on one channel to another and how to determine number of members in a server?

Question

I want to forward messages sent on a particular channel to another channel based on number of reactions on ???? emoji reaction. The message has a few embeds and is being sent by the YAGPDB.xyz bot from a sub reddit. If the message in a particular channel gets more than one down vote reaction I want to forward that message to another channel and delete it on the current channel. Here's what a typical message from this bot looks like(with embeds),

I have written the following code,

@client.event
async def on_raw_reaction_add(payload):
    if payload.channel_id in CHANNEL_LIST:
        if payload.emoji.name=='\U0001F53C':
            channel=client.get_channel(payload.channel_id)
            message=await channel.fetch_message(payload.message_id)
            reaction=get(message.reactions,emoji=payload.emoji.name)
            if reaction and reaction.count>1:
                await message.pin()
        elif payload.emoji.name=='\U0001F53B':
            channel=client.get_channel(payload.channel_id)
            message=await channel.fetch_message(payload.message_id)
            reaction=get(message.reactions,emoji=payload.emoji.name)
            if reaction and reaction.count>1:
                channel=client.get_channel(DELETED_MESSAGES_CHANNEL)
                await channel.send('{}: {}'.format(message.author, message.content),embed=message.content.embeds)
                await message.delete()

I get the following error,

Ignoring exception in on_raw_reaction_add
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "C:\Python\Python38\lib\site-packages\discord\client.py", line 312, in _run_event
    await coro(*args, **kwargs)
  File "s.py", line 46, in on_raw_reaction_add
    await channel.send('{}: {}'.format(message.author, message.content),embed=message.content.embeds)
AttributeError: 'str' object has no attribute 'embeds'

If I use embed=message.embeds instead of message.content.embeds, i get the following error,

Ignoring exception in on_raw_reaction_add
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "C:\Python\Python38\lib\site-packages\discord\client.py", line 312, in _run_event
    await coro(*args, **kwargs)
  File "s.py", line 46, in on_raw_reaction_add
    await channel.send('{}: {}'.format(message.author, message.content),embed=message.embeds)
  File "C:\Python\Python38\lib\site-packages\discord\abc.py", line 828, in send
    embed = embed.to_dict()
AttributeError: 'list' object has no attribute 'to_dict'

How do I get all the embeds in this message and forward it as it was sent here to another channel? And also, how do I get to know the number of members in my server who are NOT BOTS? Any suggestions are much appreciated!

Have you tried using just embed=message.embeds? Pretty sure that embeds is at the same level as content, not a subordinate. — DaveStSomeWhere
@DaveStSomeWhere Yes I have tried that and have edited the question to include it's output in the ending. — Nick Rogers

await channel.send('{}: {}'.format(message.author,message.content),embed=message.embeds[0]) Typically, there is only one embed in the embeds list object. So, in most cases just use embeds[0]. I haven't seen messages with multiple embeds so far.
