Q: Before AI, how did people find out the answers to their questions? A: Books. They read books. They had encyclopedias too, and newspapers and magazines. Q: Yeah but those were often biased or partial or inaccurate. A: True...so tell me, what did you train your AI on?

If you sat down a random panel of Americans and told them what Republicans are currently doing, my guess is that the vast majority simply wouldn't believe you. It comes off like you're describing a Bond villain. The reality sounds wildly different & more extreme than what they hear organically.

Trump's whole "if they can come after me, they will come after you" framing was sort of weird because most of us have not engaged in high crimes like trying to overturn an election. OTOH, a regime happy to arrest judges and politicians it defines as enemies will very clearly arrest regular citizens.

Yes, that is John Eastman, the guy who came up with a legal theory that said that Trump could overturn the election, and that Kamala Harris was ineligible to serve as President because her parents were immigrants. Now his ideas get entertained before the Supreme Court because the President is a fan.

The gotcha actually comes a bit later in the clip where Alsobrooks notes that it’s not part of ACF but rather is part of the Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development, which is part of NlH and is NAMED AFTER RFK JR.’S AUNT

This is utter madness. They are too fucking brainwashed to ever contradict dear leader. If Trump said his shit tastes like candy, they'd gobble it up while exclaiming how delicious it is.

Brooke Rollins and her family are worth more than $14 billion. RFK Jr was born into the Kennedy family, collectively worth over $1 billion. Mehmet Oz is a snake-oil salesman worth about $200 million. Scott Turner is the only one among them who ever needed to work. He's made a few million.

Every institution and human that turns critical functions over to AI will be turning de facto control over those functions (and those institutions and humans) to reactionary billionaire CEOs who have no compunction about tweaking their algorithms to serve their interests.

Whenever you hear conservative politicians preach from the gospel of "fiscal responsibility," remember that one of the biggest drivers of deficits lately are the Bush and Trump tax cuts, which have added nearly $10 trillion to the national debt.

the thing is, people really do believe that trump can’t be corrupt because he’s rich, and it is hard to persuade people that trump has a different relationship to money than the rest of us (it is a literal fetish object for him)

It’s almost as if effective advocacy and leadership, whether for good or evil, can shape public opinion, and it’s possible to work to frame issues instead of passively responding to the way the opposition frames them and accepting their characterization of what is “moderate.”

WOW. The Trump admin said they will review social media and deny immigration benefits to people saying antisemitic claims. They're even trying to deport people with green cards on alleged claims of antisemitism. Anyway, here's a tweet from an Afrikaner they flew here on Monday.
