Proof by #intimidation
#AI could soon spew out hundreds of #mathematical proofs that look “right” but contain hidden #flaws, or proofs so complex we can’t verify them
- How will we know if they’re right?
A model might be giving convincing — but #incorrect — answers
“I think #o4-mini has mastered proof by intimidation!; it says everything with so much confidence.”

What is Security Theater?
#Security #theater refers to highly visible security measures that create the #illusion of increased #safety but don’t stop #threats.
The term is often used disparagingly to describe #superficial security practices that don’t reduce risk. Simply put, security #theatre is all about #appearances, not #results.

Intimidation: how Trump is attacking #democracy
It is up to #citizens, especially state govt, to #resist
In 9 months since #Trump’s return, overall goals of his agenda are clear:
- Weaken the #UnitedStates abroad to create environment friendly to #dictators
- Using US govt & #military to establish #dictatorship at homeWill it work?
Success of Trump plan depends on how we see it; whether we choose not to see it

Nicola Sturgeon says #BorisJohnson 'least emotionally intelligent #politician’
“I think #politics sucks it out of people. I also think people with very low #emotional #intelligence are probably disproportionately attracted to the status.
“I guess it kind of sits with #narcissism. I’ve come across them all my life in politics, people who exude this kind of #superiority complex.”

@w7voa Suuuuuure sounds like all the things needed for a rock-solid conviction, to deter the perpetrator-applauding audience, and calm the fear-ridden, wealthy community, has all fallen into place. How convenient for everyone…right? #lookalikes #grainofsalt #policeinvestigate #questionauthority #ShineTheLight

The fix is in. I hate our country ruled by the choices of Fox-brainwashed MAGAts and the money-grubbing Democrats too timid to lift a finger to stop them.
Words. Go-nowhere indictments. More words. Go-nowhere prosecutions. End the prosecutions. More words. No actions. Just more words. No progress. Just more words. Nope. Going to be a peaceful transfer of power. Democrats jail themselves with their own words. "Free and fair elections" is a bullshit scam. Gerrymandering, voter suppression, voter intimidation, poll worker intimidation, never-ending streams of threats and blackmail. That fair? When Democrats get one polling place for millions of voters but Republicans get many for far fewer? When it's illegal to even provide water to people in those lines?
Our elections are theft by the wealthy, as they've always been. The only thing that has changed is the passivity of the voters. Now they don't have to do backroom deals. They can arrest the patsies for sharing bottled water.
Trump did not win anything. He was handed it on a silver platter.
BTW, if Putin loses in Ukraine, the new Cold War ends, leaving trillions of dollars of blood money on the killing floor. Harris was scary. She might have helped Ukraine win, and she might have taxed billionaires a tiny bit more than the nothing they're taxed now.
YET SHE IS A CENTRIST DEMOCRAT!
Imagine the pants pissing if AOC were the candidate.
It was a scam. We were hoodwinked. We need to realize it and behave accordingly.
Sorry. The RNC-DNC money machine is nobody's friend.
If you thought 2016 was a debacle, wait for the reviews of 2024, 8 years on.
Putin and Trump divvy up Ukraine for the billionaires who own us all.

The technique is to accuse your opponent of something they don't do, something you might have done yourself or would like to do, and then send your surrogates out to ask hypothetical questions of your opponent on friendly media outlets about that thing your opponent doesn't do. Questions like, "Why do they think they can win when they say they want to defund the police? That just doesn't go over where I live."
Also, it seems like it just takes one (1) Democrat to say something triggering, often when upset, to give Republican attack dogs food for media kennels barking propaganda to last for years.
It takes all (100%) of corporate media to not succeed in changing anyone's opinion about anything, because it's made up of siloed echo chambers, and homogeneity aside, all of the people they'd want to persuade are somewhere else, hearing completely different echoes.
All hail Rupert Murdoch and Elon Musk. The media is the message.

The planetary war machine runs exclusively on fossil fuels. The first to abandon their use entirely gets the Ukraine treatment. They abandoned nuclear weapons because we, in the spirit of COP29, said we'd always protect them from attack.
May I remind y'all of a forgotten 60's meme:
I wish I had the clout of a real man, like Joe Rogan. He'd never sell America out to a traitor. Oops. Sorry. I digressed because it's all connected.
