It was absolutely not just social media ban, it was mostly youth protesting against the corrupt government and unfairness, social media ban was one element that was against the freedom of speech, but it was right around the time where everyone was documenting the rich politicians, their business connections and their families that have been living lavishly and just inheriting the election seats from generation to generation and spinning beurocracy to their sides.

I was there a few hours ago. It was a class struggle, but it was bound to be spun up as "kids don't get facebook and throw tantrum".

Out of curiosity, what gives it away as AI slop? (I just found it inconcise.)

the concluding sentence rings very strongly of the it’s not X it’s Y concluding pattern plus the usage of colons everywhere. idk everything except for the first sentence just sounds very much like GPT patterns of speech

if you look at their comment history, you’ll notice how many of their comments have the It’s not X but Y concluding sentence pattern that is a GPT dead-ringer. Seeing people try to pass off comments like this is not just frustrating—it's insulting.

Hey, even literal Christ didn't write his own comments. The Apostles did it for him.

The first sentences are this way as well:

- positive affirmation - thing is not just one thing - thing is something else

Things don’t feel like how anybody would speak.

Looking at the account I see all comments appear to be AI generated but it makes me wonder if it’s actually just AI translating from another language or something. Which is kind of a fair enough reason to use AI, in low-stakes comment setting like this.

I don't know. To me, I would expect GPT to have a comma after "apps" in the last paragraph. To me, it reads like a human writing somewhat badly.

But, even if it was GPT: If a non-native-English-speaker wants to post here, and wants to use GPT to smooth out their bad English, is that terrible? In this case I would say no - they actually had something to say, on topic, that sounded like a reasonable perspective, perhaps even one with some inside knowledge.
