Does it really matter?

Musk just killed the US budget bill with a bunch of tweets that were explicit lies, and people lapped them up. Bizarre, obvious AI slop gets tons of engagement on Facebook.

And there are zero consequences.

Trump and Musk embraced a post truth world, so maybe it’s time for their opposition to stop pretending like America can (as a whole) think critically and fight fire with fire. Maybe it will accelerate the fall of the platforms that enable them.
