The AI backlash is completely the fault of the dishonest hype merchants whose only talent is innovating new ways of lying. You pissed people off, now everyone hates you (justified) and your tech (less justified, but again, your fault)

Just did a quick look around and I don't see very many headlines about the President of the US making people pledge allegiance to him personally while telling everyone to commit election fraud and "cheat like hell" to support his party. Seems like it should be a story?

I think the nationalism actually was good but what we did with it was extremely bad. you do want a national-solidarity response to tragedy or attack, and frankly the COVID response has me worried that we don’t have those muscles any more.

Biden made the right decision with problematic execution pulling out of Afghanistan and he was savaged for it daily. Trump makes one of the worst strategic decisions in U.S. history with catastrophic consequences and somehow the reaction seems milder. Am I wrong about that?

The overwhelming right wing sentiment is that COVID was an engineered bioweapon that was also harmless. Trump overreacted to it by shutting down the country, then engineered a drive to create a vaccine that was the real bioweapon that killed millions, and it's Joe Biden's fault.

Basically the shape of public opinion in the 2020s is that 30% of the US public is implacably in a death cult around Trump and are immune to persuasion, 40% are implacably opposed to the cult, 20% are willing to back the cult if they think it'll help the economy and 10% are insane/misinformed

Until Trump I was frequently baffled by this behavior, after Trump I realized it was mostly driven by racism. White people vote for Republicans because they have a sense that Republicans are the party for white people like them. It’s identity politics, not policy.

much our country, including our elites, live in a farcical anti-reality where Trump's was running on "secure the border, throw out the criminals" and Biden was running on "open borders." In reality Trump actually supported "mass ethnic cleansing" and Biden ran on "secure the border"

Here's the context you won't find in corporate media: Trump is done with Iran. He never cared about it or the Middle East, he wanted glorious victory. Now he's furious. He's told Vance to get him the hell out of there. Meanwhile he continues to mutter vile threats. presswatchers.org/2026/06/pres...
