The March of Folly -- Louis XIV vs Trump
I've reworked these extended quotations from #TheMarchofFolly by #BarbaraTuchman (1986) for today's wannabe "King" #Trump. Tuchman's words speak to greater truths. My words are my own and speak for more immediate truths in desperate times.
"A phenomenon noticeable throughout history regardless of place or period is the pursuit by governments of policies contrary to their own interests." --The March of Folly, Chapter 1

"Louis XIV is usually considered a master monarch, largely because people tend to accept a successfully dramatized self-estimation. In reality he exhausted France’s economic and human resources by his ceaseless wars and their cost in national debt, casualties, famine and disease…"
"Seen in that light, Louis XIV is the prince of policy pursued contrary to ultimate self-interest."

Donald Trump is usually considered a master businessman and politician, largely because people tend to accept a successfully dramatized self-estimation. In reality he is exhausting America's economic and human resources thru his illegal #wars, illegal #tariffs, increased national debt, famine (#SNAP, #Inflation), and disease (#Measles, #FoodSafety)…Seen in that light, Trump is the NEW prince of policy pursued contrary to ultimate self-interest.

It really surprised me actually. For a website that appears to be about reality/facts--manipulating images of "things in the real world" with #AI seems a very poor choice.
That said, I'm very interested in "dual-benefit" #solar like solar-over-canal, solar-over-parking, and even solar-over-crops. Turns out many things benefit from a little shade. 🙂

As an alternative theory... compliance is a good way to tell which #monoplists/#corporations support #authoritarianism.

@shonin This is an important trend I've read about elsewhere. Something I'm very interested in--dual-use solar. For example...
My comments below are not directed at you as the poster. 🙂
=================================
Comments directed to ecoportal.net:
The main image has subtext in the html article text below it...
"#Image generated with #Artificial_Intelligence"
Three thoughts I had in sequence...1) AI is totally un-necessary if the thing photographed actually exists!
2) At least it's labeled, but...
3) Why isn't the label watermarked/burned into the image itself?
My guess is #Clickbait.
IMO: ALL #AI content (text/visual/aural) should be watermarked as such!
I unboosted the article and did not read it. 👎
