Because they've long ago passed the Turing test. Moderation won't be able to stop it because humans increasingly can't detect it.

I see well written people being called "LLM" here all the time, em-dash or not.

Even prior to LLMs, a single comment was rarely enough to identify a bot. Even if nonsensical, there's too little information to separate machine from confused human (plenty of people posting drunk on their phones).

On reddit people sometimes go through the comment history and see that it seems to be a bot, but that's fairly high effort.

The key is to accuse everyone of being an LLM. Those who don't react are bots. Those that fight the charge no matter how much its levied are also bots, but with better programming. Those that complain at first but give up when too much effort is required are the real humans. Any bot able to feel frustration is cool.
