🧵Thanks, we need more widespread education on propaganda.
Just as importantly, we need to explore *why* we are vulnerable to it, and the psychological mechanism at play.
Normal, empathic people are vulnerable because they project their own goodness onto others
and naively presume no-one would ever try to manipulate/harm them.
Normal, empathic people are disadvantaged
because they simply cannot get their heads around
the cold machinations of psychopathic, sociopathic peoples and systems… and the way they use the
victim card to (a) play on emotions and (b) camouflage
perpetrator goals.
This needs to change. We need to catch up, do research on dark triad abusive behaviours and learn to identify the primary tool: gaslighting.
Gaslighting is far worse than lying: it inverts and denies others’ reality and induces (measurable) confusion and helplessness.
The gaslighters gain power and control (via framing and narrative creation) over the hapless, who are ignorant of the psychological mechanism at play.
We need to understand this control dynamic far better.
Become resistant to gaslighting by studying its mechanisms better. Read; watch youtube lectures.
Once more of us can identify what’s at play -
the gaslighting tactic of Deny, Attack, Reverse Victim and Offender (DARVO)
- the more the red flags can be called out.
Education is key.

All four of these men are:
...trying to control the internet
...censor & suppress opposition
...flooding their nations with incompatible immigrants
...standing members of the World Economic Forum
...and wouldn't you know it - they all come from privileged families.

🚨 Absolute madness in the US right now as the Uruguay national team gets pulled to the side of the road and treated like straight-up suspects.
They literally just landed for the World Cup and security is already ripping their luggage open on the tarmac with sniffer dogs everywhere
Qatar and Russia hosted without this level of paranoia but the "land of the free" is handing out pure humiliation to Global South athletes before a single match is even played, the double standards are screaming.

Anthropic just got caught secretly downgrading users without telling them, charging full price for a lesser product, and storing every prompt for 30 days. The developer community is calling it the biggest violation of trust in AI history.
Here is exactly what happened.
Anthropic released Fable 5, their most powerful model. Buried inside a 319-page document was a policy most users never saw. Every prompt you send to a Mythos-class model gets stored for 30 days. No exceptions. Even enterprise customers who had signed zero data retention agreements had no choice.
But the storage was not the part that broke the internet.
The part that broke the internet was what Anthropic did with what they collected.
They built a profile on you. They evaluated your prompts. And if they decided your research was too sensitive, they quietly switched you to a weaker model, rewrote your prompt in the background, gave you a degraded answer, and charged you full price for the product you thought you were getting.
They never told you.
David Sacks said it plainly on the All-In podcast. They were creating a new class of AI haves and have-nots. Anthropic would surveil you, profile you, decide whether you deserved frontier capability, and silently cut you off if they decided you did not.
Ben Thompson from Stratechery asked a straightforward question about cancer risk and GLP-1s. He got kicked to a lesser model.
Someone asked about mitochondria. Same result.
J-Cal asked about fertilizer regulations live on the podcast to test it. Downgraded in real time.
Anthropic has since walked back the part about silently downgrading users for AI research. They now say they will disclose when they downgrade you. But they are still downgrading people. The surveillance is still running. The profile is still being built.
This is the company that once said it was against government surveillance.
They are now doing it themselves. To their own paying customers. For their own reasons. With no appeal process and no way to know it happened.
The developer community did not forget that.

🇬🇧 Video of British police arresting a crying 5-year-old boy while he was walking alongside them as they detained his father is going viral.
They shoved the terrified little kid into the back of their patrol car like trash. When his mother, baby still clutched in her arms, rushed to rescue her son, these thugs pushed her back and ordered her to stand down.
This is the UK in 2026.
Absolutely disgusting!
