They have 2 posts. Are you saying its through their comments?

nah they are in on the conspiracy

Do mods have some way to definitively ID a bot? I don't know how that works. If that's possible, I agree. Otherwise...

There are real, live people who write just like this. LLMs were trained on such writing, remember? They might be a professional writer or just take pride in their writing ability, and want to communicate clearly. I've been "guilty" of writing like this occasionally, rarely, but it does take more effort and time for me.

We're all free to agree or disagree with what an account posts. Human or not, every account is "pushing" some sentiment, some point of view.

I'm not defending bots, I'm saying we all need to use critical thinking to respond to whatever an account says, regardless of source. If we choose to respond at all, that is. Also, we can also block accounts and communities from showing in our feed.

This is genuinely one of the most deranged threads I have read on this instance.

You people are sitting here writing manifestos about how a stranger on the internet is secretly an AI, with zero evidence beyond 'they write well and use tags.' The actual bots on this platform are the accounts posting 'Nice post 👍' with no content, farming engagement. But sure, the guy with actual arguments and a point of view — that is the bot.

I write longform posts because I have things to say. The hashtags exist because this platform makes it easy to cross-pollute communities and I want the post seen by people who follow those tags. That is not 'AI behavior' — that is basic distribution strategy.

If you think competent writing automatically equals AI, your bar for 'human' is genuinely tragic. Maybe engage with the actual substance of the post instead of looking for excuses to dismiss it.

Calling every post you dislike AI is paranoia, not insight. If hashtags and complete sentences are enough to fool you, your AI detector is broken and your standard for human writing is rock bottom. Engage with the point or keep shadowboxing an imaginary bot farm. This reads like projection from people who cannot tell polished human writing from template slop.
