"In one sensational swoop, Pres. Trump was able to set the global economy reeling, shatter our alliances, shred our standing in the world, tank consumer confidence, scupper the Kennedy Center and tart up the Oval Office, turning it into Caesars Palace on the Potomac":

"Trump is engaging the full power of the presidency to settle scores. The White House was not meant for petty tyrants on revenge tours."

@researchbuzz Being an #Asshole suffering from #Affluenza and a right-wing #extremist doesn't excuse your actions #LisaCzelatdko , nor does it mean we should forget who you are.
The fact that you're working so hard to hide your history of assault speaks volumes about you.

✨🇪🇺 Mia’s Simulacrum 🏳️‍⚧️✨

The last few days I am heavily thinking about Memetics which is an extremely cool idea.

And now LLM Agents become really widespread with new standardization tools and will find their way in _a lot_ of tech we will soon perceive as totally normal.

So I think there will appear memetic viruses (kinda like promt injections) that will infect the current context “of” a model and replicate themselves via websites, data stores, social media posts and general output. There will be semi model agnostic memetic viruses.

It is just a matter of time until they appear in a widespread fashion.

This will kickstart a small industry that will collect vectors of these memetic viruses, kinda like anti virus software made their money in the past.

All this will not work to 100% and there will be eventually an memetic virus that will bypass all these measures. It is more likely it appears randomly then being engineered.

This will lead to widespread awareness of memetic viruses like general propaganda and memetic warfare what will lead to the public demanding to criminalize social media platforms to help to distribute memetic viruses.

This therefore will lead to a full circle back to a non globalized world of values, ideas and concepts, like it was 100 years ago.

Memetic viruses like “it’s ok to be white” or “the world is flat!” that spread over continents and the world, will be contained into their local subcultures or zones.

Political extremism will die down until only highly localized, small groups of individuals will be affected for strong non common perspectives.

The global culture will not have a chance to develop and the world will, yet again, develop strong local cultural values and rituals.

Ethnologists will have a bright future.

The #radical and #extremist president #Trump announces #tariffs and revokes them within hours.

This seams irrationale, but is very #reasonable if you trade options on each #announcement.

World #economy gets hit hard, while the #inside-traders get #rich.

Trump now publicly #recommended #trades - against the market trend - before his "#irrationale" revokation of tariffs.

Inside trading is a #crime.

Bluesky Social · Rep. Chrissy Houlahan (@houlahan.house.gov)Your wallet is being cleaned out by expert pickpockets. This is criminal. Literally criminal. I call for an IMMEDIATE investigation into who knew what, when, and what they did with the info. You can bet the Admin and many here in DC are considerably richer tonight than they were this morning.

for its biggest one-day drop since June 2020, amid the depths of the Covid-19 pandemic.

of course #Trump listened to the #FarRight #radical promoting #ConspiracyTheories

Trump fired at least 3 senior #NationalSecurity Council [#NSC] officials at the urging of the #extremist & conspiracist #LauraLoomer, according to a US official w/direct knowledge of the matter. The dismissals came a day after she met him in the Oval Office with a list of administration personnel she deemed #disloyal to him.

Laura Loomer has been part of a group effort by some Trump allies to disparage members of the White House staff whom they consider fundamentally at odds with the president’s “America First” foreign policy.
