So many things to touch on here. First, calling those who protest against the genocide in Gaze “performers who aren’t seen by anyone” is just a result of the intense alienation of late capitalism / imperialism. The nihilistic capitalist feeling that nothing we do matters makes those who care appear to be freaks to those who don’t care. Community is replaced by detached, sarcastic snark.
Second, the commenter blaming pro-Palestine comments on Russia and/or bots is just the icing on the redditer cake.
Third, saying that protesters are “exacerbating the problem,” and not acknowledging that the IOF, the countries supplying weapons to Israel, or everyone else who refuses to do BDS are the ones actually exacerbating the problem is one of the worst case of ignoring material reality in favor of pure idealism that I’ve ever seen.
Not sure how much the OOP actually wrote, voice seems seems like AI and there’s the —
No, the redditor is a real person, here is their profile: https://www.reddit.com/user/goon-gumpas/submitted/
Their most frequented subreddits are r/geekboners , r/FoodieBabes , and r/NikkeMobile. It’s not AI, it’s pure brain-rot.
real people still use AI to make long posts like this
the em dashes are a strong tell since they are not something you can type on most keyboards without using some lesser known key combination shortcuts, and AI outputs often contain them

A huge bulk of AI training was done on redditors, so it tends to sound a lot like your average smug redditor.
Though if we do take the idea that this person used AI to “enhance” their writing, it raises the question: Why?
How someone could take what is presumably a personal opinion and then try to get an AI to write it for them is just so beyond my understand that I can’t make sense of it. Like, why outsource personal thoughts and opinions to an AI? How much must a person hate that lump of squishy grey stuff in their head to do this?
Or maybe it is a disassociation thing we see a lot from libs. By getting an AI to write their argument for them, it ceases to become a personal argument and (in their mind) becomes “fact” because it isn’t an opinion expressed by them, it is an Important Statement generated by the machine gods and therefore inherently correct.
I think the OOP gave chat got their screed to rewrite, presumably because they couldn’t get the pen on the paper well enough. I went through their profile, only found two other similar rants(most posts are gooning, go figure). One was extremely similar but normal dashes (-) instead of em dashes (—). The other had no dashes but lots of commas
