LLMs give people with delusional belief systems a way to organise those beliefs. The model fills in gaps, supplies connective tissue, and wraps the madness in formal language.
It doesn't make the claims more credible to us, it just tidies them up.

If we now have reduced services - no medical research, reduced weather visibility, no FEMA, no USAID, reduced medical support for poor & aging Americans, reduced VA services, then why do we need to pay the same Federal Tax as last year which only support billionaires and military-gone- ICE?

- NONE of the arrested were criminally charged
- NO evidence the building was "filled with TdA terrorists."

Orbán buys one of the best-read newspapers of the country. This is a major deterioration in a media environment that is already heavily politically controlled, as highlighted in my recently adopted report. This cannot go on - there are no fair elections without free information!

When I worked in WaPo Opinions in 2017-2018, senior editors specifically told junior editors not to factcheck Marc Thiessen and other MAGA columnists, otherwise they wouldn’t be able to publish anything by them at all, and “we need them for intellectual diversity.”
It’s very telling that opening your publication to MAGA “thought” requires a massive downgrade in quality control.
