How to send a text to multiple people without it being sent as a group message

While turning off MMS group messaging worked in the past, that no longer works. How can I send a message to multiple people without it going as a group message?

Here's a Shortcut you can use that I've had saved in my Library. You first enter the message then select from your list of contacts and it will send individually to each one.
