Perhaps having Grok be so blatantly misinformative will actually be a blessing as it will get people to question the answer machines. | ||

Is that a controversial opinion? have you ever sat across the table from an american conservative republican voter ... live in person? Dude... Mark Dice: "In May 2005, through his website, Dice advocated for the Georgia Guidestones monument to "be smashed into a million pieces, and then the rubble used for a construction project", claiming that the Guidestones "have a deep Satanic origin and message", that "the New World Order is written all over them.", and that R. C. Christian, the person who built the guidestones, belongs to "a Luciferian secret society" related to the New World Order.[1][23] In June 2008, Dice launched "Operation Inform the Soldiers", an effort to send DVDs, letters, and declassified government documents to U.S. servicemembers in Iraq. Dice hoped these would prove 9/11 conspiracy theories and cause the recipients to "rethink why they’re fighting."[24] On June 10, syndicated talk show host Michael Reagan advocated on air that Dice should be assassinated for having done so. Six days later, Reagan hosted Dice on his show and apologized for his comments." Oh and... I regulary sat and sit across plenty of conservatives, I grew up (and live again) in a Village that leans heavily conservative as in one of the most conservative villages in my canton/state and Switzerland also isn't exactly known for it's progressivnes. The large majority of conservatives know fuck all about politics except that they vote for the conservative party due to two reasons: 1: They are very sure that Immigrants are bad, except for the "few" good ones that are, by some miracle, also the ones they know and often work with. 2: Men kissing each other gives them the "icks" and therefore also should be banned or at least kept out of sight. I wish i was making this up, but I had these exacts "arguments" actually used in a discussions with me, both more than once. | ||

Its collapse was quite extraordinary, so it would be quite remarkable if such a report wasn't issued. Any broadcaster that doesn't point to (and discuss) official reports should be considered a bad actor and disreputable.not sure what your providing for a rebuttal here? Mark Dice is popular amongst conservatives who watch Fox News. are you agreeing or disagreeing? Lots of people think the lack of an official account of how WTC7 went down is concerning. Dice appeals to that crowd. Granted, the mainstream outlets have their own deficiencies that encourage the flight to youtube and substack stars. I hope for remediation in that department, so that anybody disillusioned with the conspiracists and pure culture-war commentators have someplace to return to if/when that happens. | ||

SO, they take Fox News with a grain of salt. More than ever Americans are skeptical of mainstream cable TV news. And to quote Martha Stewart: "that's a good thing". you think Grok and ChatGPT are a "super intelligent friend" ? I find they get basic stuff wrong all the time. Those people are part of conservative inc, that you don’t know it is bonkers. Also, that people who take in lies/garbage also take in bigger lies and more garbage is not the counter to my argument you seem to think it is. | ||

It’s entirely dependent on what form ‘skepticism’ takes and how it manifests. | ||

https://www.instagram.com/reel/DR1_cpKkamk/ I know instagram isn't the best source for news and stuff. Also this seems kinda biased but I thought I'd share the latest rumors regarding Trump. There's been a lot of speculation regarding his health recently but it seems that yesterday he made a blunder when giving an interview at AFO which together with other tell-tale signs now leads people to believe he is being treated for dementia. The second link provided is by a supposed geriatric care medical professional and he claims that Trump has 3-5 months of life left in him. | ||

Are you very certain about this? I thought they were both places with brown muslim terrorists who hate america and had WMDs. That sounds like the same place to me. | ||

WASHINGTON — It wasn’t the one he had in mind but Donald Trump did finally take home a peace prize. Trump was the winner of the inaugural "FIFA Peace Prize," which the soccer organization awarded during its World Cup draw in Washington. The award winner was hardly a surprise. Trump has been the assumed victor since FIFA announced the creation of the prize a month ago that it said would "reward individuals who have taken exceptional and extraordinary actions for peace." www.usatoday.com Inb4 Trump is walking around naked in a state of a dementia while winning awards for being best dressed at the Daytona 500 | ||

I'll have to wait for rumors to become something substantially more believable than the 'official' explanation of soft tissue irritation caused by frequent handshaking and aspirin (it's THIS medication to treat THIS hidden condition!). To which I'd add old man skin being prone to bruising. We're only three months away from Instagram rumors that the president had actually died and that was the reason for a lack of public events.https://www.instagram.com/reel/DQXqvKHkubs/ https://www.instagram.com/reel/DR1_cpKkamk/ I know instagram isn't the best source for news and stuff.
