The question of AI disinformation is always “what does this enable that a reasonably professional propaganda outlet cannot”. It reminds me of the people who claimed that a photo of two Israeli soldiers embracing was AI — as if the Israelis don’t have real soldiers to photograph

I fucking hate this trend of importing NYC restaurants into DC and charging $50 an entree. What we have to pretend to grasp at some half-dead art deco image of another city’s past? We can’t come up with anything original?

“who are Republicans spending time with online and what do those people believe” is a story that the media has completely ignored for years and we might be in a different place if the public was actually aware how many of those people are outright Nazis

Should be a much bigger story that the Trump administration is explicitly just making up justifications to arrest NJ elected officials for doing basic supervision of ICE. They're dropping the made-up charges against Mayor Baraka and making up new ones against Congresswoman McIver

What’s truly hilarious to me is the fact that under this logic, the 20th Maine should not have been able to defend Little Round Top, three hundred years later

This is the shit that makes me think there’s no way this holds. Putin actually took great care to make his doctored support numbers seem realistic at first glance. Cambridge Analytica was an amateurish first attempt at a practice that’s been an entire established industry in Russia for decades.

it’s cool how we are redoing a Soviet style planned economy but instead of getting really smart people to actually study the inputs of production and demand levels (which still failed!) it’s just a senile boomer yelling out random numbers

This would make 1 in every 200 children in this country trafficked by the Biden Admin specifically. Do these people think we’re stupid?

Genuinely the degree to which Truman built the modern world cannot be underestimated, and the degree to which blowing it up will damn us all cannot be either

"Omg did you see the CIA"s deputy director's kid was KIA fighting for Russia?" You bolt awake in your office at Langley. It is 1964. You are CIA counterintelligence chief James Jesus Angleton, and you've seen enough. The future is compromised. Every child is a potential Soviet asset.

Hey remember when this guy was duped into repeating Kremlin talking points by RT to the tune of literal millions of dollars and his legal defense was essentially “this is the content I would’ve run anyway”?

I’m sorry but voting to “save” the small town you grew up in from the march of history at the expense of democracy, freedom, and human rights does not make you some sort of hero or good person. These are simply not good people.
