Rules:

Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

Summary

According to the Telegraph, a leaked confidential Trump peace plan delivered to President Zelenskyy has caused panic in Kyiv.

The proposal would grant the U.S. half of revenues from Ukraine’s resource extraction and licensing, effectively amounting to economic colonization.

The Telegraph noted, "Trump’s demands would amount to a higher share of Ukrainian GDP than reparations imposed on Germany at the Versailles Treaty, later whittled down at the London Conference in 1921, and by the Dawes Plan in 1924."

Simultaneously, the plan would absolve Russia for its invasion that has caused hundreds of thousands of deaths.

Why do all of your posts straight up read like LLM slobber

I had doubts, but scrolling through their comment history almost every comment is this length without much variation. Then I saw those were all just in the past eight hours. Seems pretty fishy to me.

Edit: I kept scrolling and wow, the sheer volume of comments this length is astounding. I would normally expect more variation in topics and comment length.

I noticed the funky format as well. Although some of the subject matter is on point, if you look past the prose

Sorting their account comments by oldest, you see some of that variation I was talking about. There's about ten normal looking comments total, then two weeks ago they suddenly started with these long LLM looking comments, all about relatively serious topics. I don't think it's necessarily an actual bot, but maybe just someone using an LLM to expand or format their comments.

I don't care to comment stalk anyone. If there's a bit or some style choice going on that's fine. It'd be slightly curious to learn about the process, but it's fine if not.
