Posts on the Republican Nazi problem

The GOP has all kinds of bigots starting with Trump.

Not so long ago, hugging Hitler was one of those lines you just didn’t cross. But that’s what’s been happening with increasing regularity, revealed by a recent string of unhinged text chains among young Republicans.Read @johnavlon.bsky.social commentary: http://www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol…

Like I've been saying, the present and future of the GOP is Nazi.

The GOP has a new candidate for Texas-23, Brandon Herrera. In addition to being a Mein Kampf-brandishing admirer of Adolf Hitler, Herrera is also well known for organizing a recreation of the assassination of Martin Luther King Jr in which he gleefully pulled the trigger.

The secretary of Miami-Dade County’s GOP started a group chat for conservative students — and within 3 weeks, it was filled with over 400 instances of the N-word, Nazi rhetoric and writings of "dozens of ways of violently killing Black people"

Tom Nichols: “There are people in the Republican Party who think it’s a hoot to post Nazi memes and to use language from the Third Reich, and I wrote it because we can’t keep ignoring this and pretending that it’s normal. The Republicans in fact do have a Nazi problem.”@radiofreetom.bsky.social

Alarming Washington Post article on possible Trump attempt to interfere in the 2026 elections

I am sure he will do everything possible to prevent Democrats from taking over the House of Representatives.

Exclusive: Pro-Trump activists are circulating a draft executive order alleging Chinese interference in the 2020 election, proposing a national emergency to expand presidential power over voting, like banning mail ballots and voting machines.

Posts on AI hallucinations-

Irony alert: Hallucinated citations found in papers from NeurIPS, the prestigious AI conference

I really resent that the media in general just accepted the term 'AI hallucinations' without any kind of questioning or pushback. Let's call them what they really are: 'Fuck-ups'. Fuck-ups made by faulty, overhyped technology that ordinarily would lead to the abandonment of such unreliable software.

Nick Carver (@nickcarver.bsky.social) 2026-02-20T14:15:51.264Z

OpenAI ”acknowledged in its own research that LLMs will always produce hallucinations due to fundamental mathematical constraints that cannot be solved through better engineering, marking a significant admission from one of the AI industry’s leading companies.”You can’t trust chatbots.

Opinion: The proliferation of AI hallucinations in court filings has imposed substantial costs on the judiciary and underscores the need for mandatory reporting of AI-related sanction, the author argues.

“We plan to hire an AI rewrite specialist to ingest the reporting by Hannah and others and use AI to convert it into stories.”The editor of the Cleveland Plain Dealer said it will use AI to ‘write’ its articles.www.cleveland.com/news/2025/10…
