one of the biggest arguments against AI dependence is that the strongest proponents of its use have become visibly *dumber* in the last few years.
It really does feel like a lot of formerly reasonable people have been infected by some sort of terrifying brain parasite when it comes to unthinking and total acceptance of using AI tools
Absolute worst part, imo, is the pressure from school administrators to "welcome our new overlords" by adopting AI. It's also happening in elite universities, to my utter bafflement & horror. Anyone who calls bullshit on AI is treated as if only ignorance could explain their perspective.

6 months in and we have a fake emergency to void due precess for immigrants, a fake emergency to allow for tariffs with impunity, and now a fake emergency to allow for martial law in our captial. What's coming next is terrifying.

DNI Tulsi Gabbard repeats Putin’s talking points today, releasing an unhinged video where she claims that “political elites” want a nuclear war with Russia because they have sophisticated bomb shelters that will help them survive it.

Miller is a man who is richly endowed with the capacity for hatred. He's a world-class hater.
You can see this just by looking at him because you can see that his hatreds are his spiritual nourishment. He eats his hate.

Everyone should say it:
The thing about Stephen Miller is not that he is the brains behind Trumpism.
Yes, he is one of the people who conceptualizes the impulses of the Trumpist movement and translates them into policy.
But that's not what's interesting about Miller.
It's not brains. It's bile.

The old Soviet Union fell in large part due to the dearth of expertise in their bureaucracy, as they placed higher value on loyalty and punished any sort of criticism or dissent, regardless of competence. Nepotism or party loyalty became the key factor in hiring.
This is scary and highlights something that's painfully obvious in DC: smart people either don't want to work in this administration or are being turned away. But effective government - especially when crisis strikes - depends on having smart people around. www.washingtonpost.com/business/202...
Trump’s actions are pushing thousands of experts to flee government
The U.S. DOGE Service’s push for early retirement and deferred resignation is leading to a federal brain drain, longtime staffers fear.

Normally I would ignore such faux pas, but Trump and his sycophants kicked down the door with their disdain of Zelenskyy’s outfit, so it is fair game to call out the President’s disrespectful attire.
Of course Trump is the only jackass wearing a blue suit and blue tie to a funeral when they asked people to wear dark suits and black ties….such an embarrassment

And the end goal here is actually to implement even more AI and less human control.
An underrated factor in how we got ourselves into this mess is that Americans are increasingly relying on computers and the internet instead of their own critical thinking faculties (AI is making this even worse), and as a result are uninformed and easy to manipulate.

Newt Gingrich says the "McKinley Model" requires high tariffs over a three-year transition period.
Notable: Three years after the 1890 McKinley tariff, the economy had fallen into a severe depression. The GDP shrank by 10% and unemployment hit 18%. Certainly not the economic model I'd be copying. 😳
