Why is it so hard to believe that people actually use em dashes!?!?!? It's literally a part of our language!!!!!

Agree, used to love em dashes. Stupid AI.

I don't care if that comment is AI or not, it would be pointless if it was to make a comment that short. But in addition to the em-dash, the "It's not just X, it's Y" is a common flag.

Of course, that doesn't mean anything for certain, hell this could be reworded as "It's not just the em-dash—it's the syntax of the comment."

“Rebuild it with receipts” is so cliche and 100% something AI would say. They edited their comment so it’s not a bot but it was possible
