The same logic, however, apparently does not apply to left-wing influencer accounts, as Sam learned when he created a short-lived liberal counterpart for Emily on Instagram: “Democrats know that it’s AI slop, so they don’t engage as much.” (Sam’s explanation for why MAGA influencer accounts work is blunt: “The MAGA crowd is made up of dumb people—like, super dumb people. And they fall for it.”)
Pretty much sums up the whole political timeline we live in.
This is has always been the glaring issue with pure democracies.
That’s why constitutional republics were created. It’s supposed to be a counter to the negative side of democracy. The constitution is supposed to be continuously updated and refined with the changing needs of the Republic.
FYI the last constitutional amendment to the U.S. was in 1992. That is 34 years ago. Unless something changes radically in the next few years, historians will refer to that date as when the U.S. Constitution died.
Actually, the last time the Constitution was amended was in 2020 when Virginia became the 38th state to pass the Equal Rights amendment. But, of course, conservative ciquanery kept it off.
Damn I need to start scamming MAGAs. Does anyone have any suggestions for how to start a new career in the scamming industry?
If you find something and go “nobody could possibly fall for that!” then you’ve found your MAGA grift.

find something to do that puts something positive into the world instead?
I bet he could do more with that attitude and a big sack of idiots’ money than with the attitude alone. There’s also a certain poetry in undermining their efforts with their own money.

You could run for office as a republican, they have teams of support people that will coach and help you hone your craft.
I should come up with a “scam MAGA” business model. Damn ethics…
Tell ya what. I’LL do all the shady stuff. You just provide the capitol. Just give me $50 million dollars, and I’ll scam the idiots FOR you!
Money please! Money me now!
Trump already does it successfully

Anything to separate conservatives from their money so they can’t use it to support fascism.
On one hand, I can enjoy the schadenfreude.
On the other hand, this kind of thing helps to create and maintain the alt-right alternate universe mediasphere. I remember a story coming out of Ukraine where a bunch of guys were making fake ‘news’ sites loaded with advertising to spam ragebait articles for cash. They said that they made way more money by posting right wing content so that’s what they focused on.
Multiply that by a bunch of people and add in adversarial nation’s influence campaigns and you get Donald Trump.
Congrats, young man, to having found a good way to do the world a service, all while making a fortune.
Every cent those idiots spend on fake girls can’t be spent in GOP donation jars.
Gotta love how genai’s main use is scamming people. Revolutionary tech just like crypto, which totally superseded banking and isn’t running on a pyramid of grifts.
For ilicit dealings crypto absolutely superseeded previous payment methods. Not to mention the adoption of cryptocurrencies in Venezuela due to runaway inflation of the national currency.
Yes, crypto scams exists. But cryptocurrency is the closest we have to a decentralized currency that can be transfered around the world without anyone being able to dictate who you can send money to.
Most of those people probably bought Trump coins with their savings too
They’re all still waiting for their Tr*mp phones to arrive from Ghina.

I absolutely approve.
I would do it, too, if I could get over the squick of even dealing with them in the first place.
Entrepreneurship in action, right MAGAs? Buyer beware and all that.
this reminds me of this one black guy that scammed 30k from the maga crowed. i saw his tiktok about it.
Crime seems so easy
To think I’m here, working my ass off and still broke, when I could be swimming in “These pills will grow your dick by 3 inches” money
Hey! I wasn’t grifted and I’m super dumb. What’s going on?!
