Why would an LLM give you a more "rational take"? It's got access to a treasure trove of kooky ideas from Reddit, YouTube comments, various manifestos, etc etc. If you'd like to believe a terrible idea, an LLM can probably provide all of the most persuasive arguments.

Apologies, it sounds like you have no experience with modern models. Yes, you can push and push and push get it to agree with all manner of things, but off-rip on the first reply in a new context it will provide extremely grounded and rational takes on politics. It's a night and day difference compared to your average reddit comment or X post.

In my years of use and thousands and thousands of chat uses, I have literally never seen chatGPT provide a radical answer to a political question without me forcing it, heavy-handedly, to do so.
