Distraction 101: Epstein? No Obama!

 

One thing about the digital age and Artificial Intelligence (AI) is it is easier to see what's coming: the algorithm is plainly visible. 



For example: I say, "Epstein/Trump" then the algorithm directs you to "Obama/Biden."

And, if prices go up following tariffs under Trump, then you get, "It's Biden's fault!"

Or, if Jeffrey Epstein's affair with Trump is the headline, then you get "It's Obama's fault!" or "What about Obama?He tried to steal the election!"

Or, if Ukraine suffers a Russian bombing after America abandons defending democracy, it's "Leftist, elitists antisemites want to abandon Israel and the Jews!"



At least the electronic flow seems to have shoved "It's Hillary's fault" and "What about Vince Foster" lower down in the chain of dribble. So that's something.

And when mention is made of the great steal in the big beautiful bill giving huge windfalls to the billionaires and driving up prices of eggs for the middle class, well that's all just, wait for it, "Ivy league elitist, leftist, antisemitic, communist Democrat" talk.

"Evidence" is by links to websites of unimpeachable integrity, like QANON, The Storm Front, Infowars, The Coming Apocalypse, The War Room, and sometimes, The Joe Rogan Experience. 

Mad Dog is waiting for new unimpeachable sites with better names like: Huge Biceps and Delts, Shaved Scrotal Truth, Musk Scent, Testosterone Surplus, Predator Predilections, Champion Bloodlines and all like that.

We now can see the algorithmic pathway from "If Trump shot someone on Fifth Avenue" to "Then Obama made him do it!" or "It was really Obama!" or "It was the Clinton/Obama/Biden/Democrat cabal," or "He was in fear for his life--Just look at his Ear!"




Predictability is something markets and political institutions crave and need, and the predictability of these algorithmic pathways offers balance, stability.

It, of course, can get tedious, as any mention of climate change goes straight to "Chinese plot" and floods to "Biblical apocalypse--Obama's fault."



But, at least we can see what's coming.
