Honestly being called a fascist and yelled/spit at should probably be the best case scenario for these people and it shouldn’t stop when they graduate

the core of tech bro fascism is a bunch of dudes who simultaneously hate artists and the creative process more than anything and lack the ability to interpret reality outside of what they've been taught by movies and TV
While there is a lot to say about this image, the thing that stands out to me the most - what IMO makes genAI a specifically right wing phenomenon - is the craving for approval. It is not enough to be able to generate robot lingerie warrior lady. They NEED to also be praised for doing it.
This is so funny

just cannot emphasize enough here that the whole "actually inhaled steroids cure measles" illustrates how none of the antivax stuff is actually about big pharma, it's about virtue signaling to other narcissists about how much cleverer than doctors they are
One of the doctors RFK claimed was doing “heroic” work “curing” kids of measles . . .
a) is treating kids with a steroid, which is making them sicker
b) said the idea came from god in a dream
c) boasted about treating kids *while he himself had the measles*

Kennedy draws from misinformation playbook by touting an inhaled steroid to treat measles
Trump’s health secretary said budesonide was helping to “heal” measles patients. It’s reminiscent of the days when fringe doctors said ivermectin could cure Covid.

A tricky thing about modern society is that no one has any idea when they don’t die.
Like, the number of lives saved by controlling air pollution in America is probably over 200,000 per year, but the number of people who think their life was saved by controlling air pollution is zero.
