EDIT: THIS IS THE WORKAROUND:
bind 'set enable-bracketed-paste off'

The proposed work around does NOT work for me. It could be due to the fact that 
it is over ssh?
I am sshing from 18.04 into 22.04.
Bash version on former is 4.4.20(1)-release
Bash version on latter is 5.1.16(1)-release

I CANNOT work with this 'feature' enabled. Please help. Thanks. (And
this security argument makes no sense to me... why would I paste text
into a terminal which I didn't select?)
