Twitter pays people based on engagement (views, retweets, comments, etc). It appears that many MAGA accounts are based abroad and they use AI technology to generate low-effort rage bait.

My guess is that this will get worse as AI tech improves. For instance, fake videos of minorities doing crime.

I've had a missile blow up next to my airplane, been shot at dozens of times by anti-aircraft fire, and launched into orbit — all for my country. I never thought I'd see a President call for my execution.

Trump doesn’t understand the Constitution, and we're all less safe for it.

I haven’t seen this get covered in English yet so let me translate.

Grok is saying that the crematories at Auschwitz’s were conceived as disinfectant chambers, not mass execution and that the law has made it taboo to acknowledge that this is what they were

Genuinely keep thinking I’m going to see a BREAKING NEWS alert announcing that FIFA have overturned Scotland’s World Cup qualification. Like waiting for the rug to be pulled away. Well, nobody said being a proper football nation again would be stress free … we’ll just have to get used to it 😉

I covered Scotland at France 98 - and the similarities with Steve Clarke's World Cup adventure are striking

Scotland's World Cup qualification brings back so many great memories of France 98
Mobile phones the size of bricks and no Google translate to correct horrible French - those were the happiest of days!

Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk: “As a result of the investigation, we now know it was the Russian Secret Services that commissioned the blast of the Polish railway and recruited two Ukrainians to do it. We also know the identities of the perpetrators who immediately fled Poland for Belarus.”

Her and Kamikaze Kwarteng still responsible for putting extra thousands on our mortgage for next X years. Anything they say about markets should be treated like Gerald Ratner giving advice on brand value (one for the teenagers there).
Ah yes, collapsing the economy, your one area of expertise. Do tell us about the time you knocked £30bn off the stock market and trebled everyone's mortgage.
