Yea, and sadly archive.is couldn’t bypass it either

Then why did you post it to Lemmy?

I had this discussion when chatgpt first blew up. The amount of this kind of stuff will increase, but it has always been there and I strongly doubt it will convince anyone who wasn't already convinced.

But with the larger amount they can manage, they will reach a wider willing audience. Russian propaganda has been incredibly effective and if the bottleneck was humans, that was removed or is being removed.

Like we don't already have enough issues.
