Grok says my article has “low journalistic value,” then claims it “ignores documented Italian-American objections and Mamdani's clarification that the map was incomplete and would be updated to include Little Italy.” Both of those things are included in the article. Grok can’t read.
If you post on X, you are an active participant in the richest man in the world’s far-right, racist disinformation campaign. But, you know, gotta get that engagement clout.
Fox Business’ chief correspondent says the immigrant neighborhood map is “ethnic cleansing of NYC.”
The Managing Editor of Politics at Fox News says Little Italy not being on a map created by Eric Adams’ administration is a Mamdani hate crime.
MAGA’s coordinated fake moral panic this week is “Mamdani hates Italians” and it’s objectively hilarious
As an Italian American (literally a dual citizen) and lifelong New Yorker: 1) Little Italy is only 2 blocks these days bc nearly all the Italians moved out decades ago. 2) Almost no Italian immigrants live in it, because that era was even longer ago. 3) The FP is basically a white grievance blog.
Bret Weinstein of the Intellectual Dark Web (Bari Weiss praised him as one of the most important thinkers of our time) says the Patriot Front thing is a psyop. Coming soon to 60 Minutes!
Wrote about Trump's "Great American Fair" and his administration's war on legal immigration, juxtaposed with Reagan's "Liberty Weekend" 40 years ago — which celebrated our welcoming of immigrants as a uniquely American strength. www.ms.now/opinion/amer...

You know who else ruined their whole life over a reflecting pool?
Isn’t “Make America Great Again” a searing indictment of what America is today? Does that count as “hating America”?
Nobody has ever been as butt-hurt by anything ever as Bill Maher was by Larry David’s “My Dinner with Adolf” column
Trump supporter from Texas moves to NYC a few years ago, writes constantly about how terrible it and its people are, cries that three socialists getting elected in far-left districts is evidence that they “hijacked my city.”
Thomas Massie is not a folk hero. He’s a brain-rotted crank. Pass it on.
The Musk-Thiel-Sacks-Andreesen media industrial complex allows simps like Solana to not just be well-paid propagandists for power, but to cosplay as truth-to-power rebels
The Intellectual Dark Web is still peddling alt-right philosophy through a bunch of pedantic phrasing and MAGA bootlicking
Paranoid, rich, MAGA blowhard in a heavily-fortified Texas bunker is very concerned for my safety and it’s adorbs
Peter Thiel’s lickspittle sidekick fearlessly defending “the accomplishments of great men.”
Joe Rogan is apparently a graduate of the Bill Maher “Trump’s a fun guy in private conversations with celebrities!” school of political science.
Intellectual Dark Web bootlickers for the richest racist in the world...an ongoing thread
Peter Thiel’s techno-fascist blog thinks anti-vax podcaster Joe Rogan and right-wing fabulist YouTuber Nick Shirley would make great 60 Minutes correspondents.
