This has to be AI written slop, no human with a brain would write that article.

I'm so glad you said this, because the author is very much human. With a master's degree in journalism.

Trust me you can be an absolute dumbass with a masters degree.

Ask me how I know

A masters degree in fucking pointless rambling about nothing related to the main point of the article, I guess…

I suspect corporate said "Articles will be written on this", and, well, you use what you got. I would assume they were not pleased with themselves, merely keeping their job. Which sucks to be in that sort of position - also knowing that if you quit over something like that, someone else will write it anyway.

At least we got an article so crappy a lot of people realize just how crappy it is, which actually is better than well-crafted propaganda, if you think about it.

Imagine working that hard to get that degree, and in the week that a 50-year-old dictatorship has been toppled in Syria, you're tasked with writing articles about how a twentysomething man played Among Us occasionally.
