It's worth pointing out that recent advances in language models make it easy to authentically parrot talking points and fool niche communities into believing you care about their issues
Politicians love it when people think they "really care"
Try not to be fooled
Yep. I try to do the following
- Follow the incentives
- Don't trust, verify
- Don't believe liars
These are the main reasons I don't trust any politician and I sure don't put any hope in them. The whole system is designed to incentivize this behavior of deceiving people into thinking they care. The issue isn't JUST that politicians are snakes. Its that the system attracts those type of people and rewards this behavior.
