  • Because most of these (if not all) are literally meant to placate you.

    Try asking stuff about like politicians who might be dictators. When it refuses to tell label people, ask it why, and then question those answers.

    Albeit I am primarily referencing Trump here, and it won’t label democrats either, if you live in reality then just… cmon… cmon. Try asking it for says numerical comparisons to Hitler. Not sure about others, but Copilot will just tell you that’s off limits.

    It all but tells you it’s meant to create engaging conversations more than anything else. They easily fudges numbers all the time, so…

    LLM is only as informative as whoever is controlling it, just like social media, traditional media, etc.

    I hate how much I sound like the old conspiracy heads lmfao.







  • "I didn’t vote for the lady who wouldn’t commit to stopping Israel (but I knew wouldn’t shred the economy)

    even though the alternative was a man very openly supportive of Israel and is now actively deporting pro-Palestine protesters and providing Israel all the weapons it needs

    'Cuz obviously both parties are the same"

    Quite frankly, I have no respect for anyone who took this position. Whether influenced by propaganda or… whatever… I honestly don’t know how you can say you didn’t see what a threat Trump would be (not you personally), especially in retrospect.

    I’m again going to push back and say that a massive propaganda campaign, similar to 2016, is what won them the election. Crypto dumped $146 million into he election. Elon personally put something like $250 million in, AND did the “raffles” to get people to vote (not raffles, it was a lie, admitted in court)… AND he openly used Twitter to influence the election. Zuck is in with the same guys that Musk is – Thiel, etc (I say “in” loosely for Musk) and if you don’t think they also used FB you’re a fool.

    But propaganda isn’t an excuse, because it requires some lack of not intentionally trying to expose yourself to new & different sources of news, but more importantly, different perspectives. And a complete detachment or ignorance from Trump’s first presidency.

    MAGA was always a traitor party.






  • You’re acting like these billionaires are all a monolith that are all going to act the exact same way.

    That is a mistake, and one that will cost you, as underestimating people in previous conflicts, revolutions, etc, have before.

    They are not all knowing. They are not all powerful. They, too, make mistakes and believe lies.

    Of course it’s not their final plan. We don’t even know what phase 2 of project 2025 is.

    But everything they’ve openly said about project 2025 has pretty much come true… and all very consistently seems to be working toward this goal of Balkanizing the US. It might not happen during Trump’s presidency. The tech bros plan for longer than 4 years

    But the tech bros don’t care about EVERY billionaire. They’re not all in the circle. This isn’t the rich guy circle. This is the dark enlightenment tech bro circle.

    Does it make WAY more sense than the rest of the billionaires just aren’t 100% informed about what’s going on and are trying to hedge their OWN bets?

    Again, I agree we don’t have the full story. But you are putting almost superhuman levels of intelligence on these billionaires… when it’s just not true

    Wow. It is shocking you have the lack of self awareness to criticize the messaging of having Cheney around… but are what, ignoring on purpose the messaging in America around socialism/communism?? Totally oblivious? Yeah good luck walking around telling the average American that isn’t already a leftist “yeah come join me, I’m a socialist communist!”

    Do you… not see what the right would… do with that? Not only are you butchering the reality and history of these terms, you literally make the world black and white in exactly a way that benefits MAGA?

    But I’m supposed to believe you are arguing in good faith? I’ve made some mistakes in this convo but jfc this is egregious.

    1. 100% stand by my initial statement that you are genuinely an idiot to dismiss the legitimacy of how badly propaganda & bots have fucked us up.

    2. after reviewing your comment history, I edited that out (after you posted). I take this statement back.

    3. WHAT ACTUAL criticism do you have besides continuing to vaguely attack the democrats and whine they campaigned with Cheney – which I already said they went too HAM into. But I also wouldn’t exile her entirely.

    You ignored the question… and continued to make attacks that have no actual end result/point to the convo you claim to be trying to have. That’s why they’re in bad faith.

    Again. Re read #3 because I’ve already said it multiple times. Do you have any actual other point than that besides “dems & Cheney bad?” That’s what I’ve been trying to get to.

    I am wrong on the Fox News viewership and conflating it with specific numbers.

    However, I’m not going to pretend the prevalence of Fox News being turned on in many businesses, hospitals, etc, and the internet also sharing clips of it (and being repeated places like edit: Joe Rogan. I’m tired, k?) isn’t relevant to the convo.

    Also Facebook working with Cambridge Analytica, the Trump campaign, & others to tailor their algorithms to target Americans and influence the election.

    Because you just said that Americans were tired with the “liberal” way of things. What liberal way of things?

    “Liberalism is a political and moral philosophy based on the rights of the individual, liberty, consent of the governed, political equality, the right to private property, and equality before the law.”

    I mean… you have to go beyond socialism into communism to not think that some form of capitalism should exist. And I’m not saying I’m not on board with SOME of that, but you’re kind of driving my point home that you’re just… saying shit.

    I’m a basically a fuckin’ socialist you turd. That’s part of why I’ve been asking “what the hell are you talking about” this whole time when I’ve addressed the Cheney point MULTIPLE times, which was your only real complaint until you kept attacking random shit. (However I do ultimately appreciate having taking the time to review a couple things you made me double check so I’m not repeating them again… just kinda lame it took your attitude of wanting to attack with once again… seeming no real end goal… to get that)

    Once again: if you’re more angry that even Liz Cheney went “oh fuck this is bad I’ll say something” and the democrats embraced that… than the fact we literally have a CEO dictator flagrantly going against the courts & constitution and deporting legal immigrants… idk what the fuck to tell you. Being more mad at the system than the actual Nazis taking power is speechlessly stupid in my eyes. I have repeatedly said in past comments that we wouldn’t be in this situation if the system itself wasn’t broken, and I have never defended it.
