Absolutely. Baby Goebbels and the HF minions know just how to play their puppet.

You win the internetz today - Grima Wormtongue reference is spot on. Thank you. (and a follow). 🏆🥇

There was that moment last year where he'd "seen" something nonexistent with Portland protestors and he blurted out "is my TV lying to me?" all sad and confused like everyone's grandpa is towards the end. And if he weren't history's shittiest person while his brain was intact you'd feel bad for him.

Also likely: his eyesight is worsening with the rest of his health.

“Just endorse the checks here…”👇🏼

“Trump’s handlers” is something I’d rather not picture!

Actually, the debate is still on. I withdraw my opposition for the moment.

I mean shit, it's what Fox News is for, too.

2020 was basically an eternity ago. there was no AI slop. Trump’s brain was somewhat more intact. this is all far worse and weirder now.

Trump genuinely believes that Kilmar Abrego Garcia has “M S 1 3” tattooed on his knuckles because a rando did a Twitter photoshop. It wouldn’t be hard to fool him with AI if it shows him what he wants to see.

Donald’s brain is so fried that they likely don’t need to bother with an alternative video, they just tell him the video shows something and he believes it. bsky.app/profile/eric...

Agreed. They are in echo chambers and can't imagine other white people not wanting an ethnostate deep down. Shy Nazis.

Various actors now post vast amounts of politically targeted GenAI slop on Twitter/X. Trump’s advisors consume this slop, believe much of it, and turn around and generate AI slop of their own. Trump’s advisors feed this hyper-distilled slop to Trump himself. Thus the batshit cycle perpetuates.

The fact that Trump is somebody who constantly makes false statements and statements that are falsified when he changes his mind isn't a new thing, nor is the question of how much of his bullshit he actually believes a new question.

i'm certainly not saying they're not manipulating him, though.

He’s not bothering to look. He just writes what Stephen Miller tells him to.

They wouldn't do that because they don't need to. I'm so fucking sick of people giving this glaze of morality and credibility to known psychopaths. He would lie because he's a liar. He doesn't need to feel just. He feels powerful. They elected a rapist and he's raping the world. Simple as.

You can hold the video right in front of their face showing conclusively that what they're saying isn't real, and they will double down on the lie without flinching. They view establishment of objective reality as a competition they can't lose. Gaslighting is a totally inadequate term.

Considering Thiel's obsession with being a real-life Sauron, this seems more than likely to be one of the intended uses.

I'm pretty sure he if fully capable of making up lies without the aid of AI deepfakes.

Half-shitposting and half-not but Maybe thats why he's having so many cognitive tests

This is absolutely what’s happening.

Had the same thought... bsky.app/profile/raji...

Yes but also he has a lifetime of lying as easily as breathing. I honestly can't tell.

Checks out.

Nonsense. Trump is not Theoden.

No Trump generated his own lies. None of this is out of character for who he has been for his entire life. He's just slow in the uptake. Stupid. He could have done all this in his first term, but it took him years to realize his people will do anything. Now he's taking big swings

“GWaaS…” (checks with trademark office while it’s still functioning)

ah we are at the incompetent egofuckers trying to out-evil each other using AI now, instead of lying to orange führer about war successes like the og nazis did history does rhyme

WaaS. Except he’s already an egregious piece of shit underneath, not some benevolent king… So it’s more like Wormtongue with his own Wormtongue, and on down the chain… Wormtongue².

Yes. This is affirmative.

I agree that they probably are, though doing so only throws fuel on an already demented, ignorant, racist raging fire.

One of the less remembered parts of 1984

Grima-tive AI.
