I mean, yes - but somehow this feels like a different category. At least to me. I view slop as the classic garbage like:

[Thing] isn’t just [X]—it’s [more dramatic Y]. And [short validating statement].

I can see and smell this type of slop from a mile away. What I’m referring to is in the same family as slop but somehow different - it fools my brain by putting on the presentation of credibility and thus it is even worse. I can skip right over classic slop without much effort. This kind of text tricks me into laboring over it before I realize it’s hollow.

So in that way, it’s worse than slop.
