That’s the bottom line, isn’t it? Everyone deserves one’s respect, no one deserves one’s worship.
The problem is that’s not the Trump they see. They see a hero story told through YouTube, podcasts, angry Facebook/Twitter posts, MSM, Discords and such. It’s immersive. It’s engrossing/triggering enough to turn on family.
I can’t stop saying it. The root problem is the information environment, and no amount of policy or studying or empathy or signaling or even hardship is going to change squat until that is turned on its head.
And I’m more militant about that now. Big Tech is beyond fixing, it needs to be fucked up.
So?
I guess I’m not drawing lines between the volume of death threats, any exaggeration of the article, the culprit(s), and what any of that has to do with an LLM. They all seem like independent factors. Sure someone could have used an LLM to spam her, or theoretically the article could be editorialized, but… She still got death threats, maybe a lot.
