Yes. Keep in mind that in Russia and China, the unskilled wage is near zero. And they do want to sew the seeds of discontent here.
I don't believe these paid employees are specifically assigned to EMJR. Instead they likely have hundreds (thousands?) of websites or Reddit boards they post on everyday. Most of them are cut and paste BS that takes literally under a second to post. They can probably automate some of it but the human is there to beat the captcha and/or select which cut and paste makes sense for the board.
