This made me realise they’re doing the same thing the AI labs are doing: selling both the problem and the solution.

They are arming spammers and scammers with these tools so you need their product to protect yourself from them

Welcome to the grift economy.

state did this for centuries or longer btw. they create violence/war in some area of the planet, then offer to "fix it".

like wmd's in iraq and hormuz problem now, lmao. remember how hormuz was not a problem and it was wideoy peaceful and open months ago? lol

you can just say "Society"; it's bizarre people think there's some magic to governance that's above in beyond people forming groups and rules.

Depends on how democratic the Society is. The less so, the more it's a powerful minority at the top. How much say did the average US citizen have in starting this war with Iran? It's not something the current administration ran on to get elected. It's not very popular in the polling.

but you live in these "states" so aren't you the problem?
