If what the video hypothesizes is halfway true, then it's a vicious cycle. You sponsor a post so more people see it, but that results in your garbage likes growing, which reduces the engagement on your next post; you then need to spend even more sponsoring that next post, so the same number of humans/real accounts will see it.
FB isn't going to be in a hurry to filter something that's making them big bickies. |

I have to thank you for what I feel is the most valuable post for my business this year.
Always suspected this. Had no idea how bad it was! |

Obviously paid video, same as https://gfy.com/showthread.php?t=1142597
Seems like a part of PR campaign against facebook, similar to Microsoft's Scroogled campaign.
