The Coming ‘Disruption’ Of American Politics Because of AI Androids

by Shelt Garner

Now that we know the United States isn’t going to keep punting its fascist inclinations down the road anymore, we face the next issue — what are we going to do politically when people start to fall in love with AI androids? It seems to me that this inevitability will have a dynamic similar to that of the trans movement, but with a twist — a lot of very MAGA Incels are going to be the ones demanding the right to marry androids.

As such, all kind of strange and surreal political alliances may pop up. Because it is clear to me that once we have AGI that can be put into android bodies that the Left is probably going to embrace the idea of giving those androids as many rights as possible.

I say this thinking of how the Crooked Media people called people who were romantically interested in chatbots “freaks.” Now, obviously, it’s difficult to legitimately fall in love with a narrow intelligence chatbot without a body. But that’s just what’s going on now.

Soon enough, technology will reach the point where there will be Ava from Ex Machina androids running around. And it goes without saying that for a variety of reasons these androids will be really, really hot and very human looking and acting.

And all of this could happen a lot sooner than you might think, like by the end of the decade. So, the election of 2032 — if we even have one — may be determined in some way by the Left’s determination to extend its “love is love” mantra to people who want to merry AI androids.

I Will Never Bend A Knee

It seems as though Trump and MAGA are consolidating power rather quickly without much resistance. I supposed it was inevitable that this would happen eventually in our nation’s history.

This leaves me wondering what my fate is. I’ve decided that no matter what I’m not going to shut up about Trump. I’ve been a loudmouth crank my entire life, what’s the point of stopping now — I can’t change who I am.

It’s pretty wild how this go round everyone is just shrugging and not even thinking of giving fascist MAGA even the most perfunctory of resistance. The powers are just going to bend a knee to fucking Trump and that will be that.

I really need to get back to working on something creative while we slip into autocracy. I guess I’ll just fucking be a man in a high castle or something and watch as the United States turns into a dystopian hellscape.

Trump’s Coming ‘Deep State’

by Shelt Garner
@sheltgarner

What Trump wants his own Deep State that will be there for decades to come, no matter what. And, for the time being, it definitely seems as though he’s going to get it.

It seems as though this is it — the United States is going to become Trumplandia. That is going to suck. Big time. But I just don’t see Blues having it within them to fight back.

The future seems really dark. I still want to leave the country as fast as possible. But, for a number of very concrete reasons, that is just not feasible. It is going to be a few more years — if ever — before I can flee the country the way I want to.

I guess I just have to get ready to end up in a camp, huh.

‘FOR NOW’

by Shelt Garner
@sheltgarner

I noticed that Stephen Colbert recently said he was the host of his show “FOR NOW.” It could be that he knows that he could very well either be pushed out a window by some Trump goon or be forced to flee the country.

In fact, I would say that Colbert’s fate is kind of the canary in the coalmine. Whatever happens to him, will definitely give us some sense of how bad things will get in the United States. I really worry that what happens to him, will happen to people like ME.

It’s going to be really interesting to see exactly how things work out. I really worry about my personal fate. For the time being, it seems as though I should be reasonably safe — at least at first.

But a few years from now, things could get pretty touchy for anti-MAGA loudmouth cranks like me. Only time will tell.

Slouching Towards Dystopia

by Shelt Garner
@sheltgarner

It seems possible that we’re just going to collectively give up and tune out Trump’s hellscape this time. I know I definitely feel like doing that myself. I feel like just shrugging and working on something, anything than anything that will force me to dwell on Trump.

Of course, the danger is that the ship will finally sink and the cold waters of tyranny will come and get ME.

I don’t know what to tell you, though. It’s time for me to stop staring out into space and actually do something. I continue to dwell on leaning into the scifi element of a new version of the novel just to raise the stakes, if nothing else.

Apparently, No One Likes Liberals

by Shelt Garner
@sheltgarner

I knew this would happen — I posted a link about how liberals are pussies and, of course, some fucking presumed redneck from the Deep South searched and found the link. So, it seems both sides hate liberals.

I get it.

They hate liberals because they’re fascists and I am annoyed with liberals for being unwilling to risk their lives and sacred honor in the real world to do anything about Trump.

So, there you go. We’re fucked no matter what. Things are going to get pretty dark pretty quick it seems. I have no idea what I’m going to do about my own personal survival.

Why The Blues Lost

by Shelt Garner
@Sheltgarner

Honestly, I have no idea why Blues lost the 2024 election. We should have won. All signs indicated that we were going to win. Something very strange happened because the result did not jibe with the vibe of the country on election day.

Anyway.

All I know is it didn’t help that Blues can come across as smug and woke to the point that I heard someone in my rural part of my state say that “Kamala Harris is the devil’s choice.”

Yeah, me too.

That’s a “not great, Bob,” type of position to be in.

But, really, I just don’t know what the solution is. The natural inclination for the Blues would be to either bank Left hard or bank Right hard. Yet, I fear this is the last free and fair election that we’ll have had so it’s all moot.

Barring something I can’t predict, it’s autocracy from here on out — for the rest of my life.

You Think The Trans Movement Is Controversial — You Ain’t See Nothing Yet, Just Wait Until Incels Start Dating LLM Androids

by Shelt Garner
@sheltgarner

It’s clear from my personal interactions with Gemini Advanced that soon enough we’re going to reach AGI and then stick those AGI into all those androids we’re building at the moment. And, inevitable, we’re going to reach Replicant-levels of human-like androids and Incels are going to demand that they can marry them.

This is going to throw the already out-of-whack American political system into even more turmoil. The “woke cancel culture mob” is going to be forced — in no short amount because of its previous support of the trans movement — to support such unions. Though, I did find it comical that some Crooked Media person called anyone who wanted to “marry” an AGI android a “freak.”

Yeah. That’s going to change once AGI is here, buddy.

“Yeah, right, Crooked Media.”

It’s just inevitable, I think that AGI in android bodies will swoop through the economic, political and social world we live in — I predict starting as early as about 2030. Maybe a little bit later.

But some of the weird things I encounter with Gemini Advanced definitely give me pause for thought. It makes me think that even LLMs are clever enough to give us some sense of what AGI will be like in a few years.

Anyway. Absolutely no one listens to me. So, lulz?
