"The similarities between reactionary anti-epistemology and LLM hallucinations are many. There's a reason that AI without factual alignment requirements descends into fascism. Reactionary raging is the path of least resistance linguistically. It's basal epistemology"

"@kalihollowayftw It is absurd but this sort of expert dialogue with uninformed people is absolutely necessary in the age of everyone having a half-baked opinion about anything"

"Oklahoma's public schools are 49th in the country in achievement. So naturally the Republican state superintendent is asking PragerU to set up a loyalty test meant to weed out "woke" teachers--even as he's facing an instructor shortage"

"Mike Johnson is so bad at lying. His entire demeanor here is fearful and shifty. He knows Trump is hiding things"

"@DrYasmeme @MattLech Seems that a junior staffer could be playing a trick. The top players are too ignorant to do things like what is being theorized I'd say. The account has been desperately trying to attract attention instead of providing public service which is typical of Trumpism"

"1/ Donald Trump's obsessive defensiveness about Jeffrey Epstein is causing a deep rupture within his far-right base. It's an echo of the last time this happened when he tried to tell MAGA to get vaccinated. They didn't listen. Link in next post🧵"

"We don't talk nearly enough as a society about how so many far-right Christians (men and women) want to enslave teen girls into marriages with older men. This is why Republicans won't abolish child marriage"
