Reminds me of a comment I read, that Hunter S. Thompson would not have cared for MAGA, because Hunter represented a type of masculinity that MAGA aspired to but did not at all reach, whereas Thompson would just look at them as pathetic/cringe.

I’m sorry, but a goofy looking guy who grew up a privileged son of a pediatrician and has a phd in social theory from the university of Goethe and started in tech by investing an inheritance left to him by his grandfather talking about being a “dude” is very, very funny to me.

I'm teaching a political theory class and Marx and Gramsci are SO FUCKING DENSE (as in, tons and tons of ideas per page). I'm pretty sure that after normalizing, I have twice as many notes for each vs any of the other authors (Hayek, Weber, Schmitt)

I've seen this image on how chatgpt scores on the world values survey but isn't the substantive implication that chatgpt is super progressive/woke?

there has gotta be some non public information behind the tune switch on AI from “infinite productivity is right around the corner” to “you fuckers are in this boat too whether you like it or not, better psychologically prepare to open your taxpayer wallets”

Must read. Basically, if you’ve fallen for Ru propaganda, the chatbots will dig you in even deeper. Also note this: “Grok provided the highest number of Russian sources even when asked neutral questions, the research found.” Higher than the Chinese chatbot!
‘The researchers believe that the chatbots use Russian sources more often when a topic is considered a data void, a search term that doesn’t have many high-quality results.’
