Trump puts up AI video of Obama being arrested by the FBI in the Oval Office

a year ago by ByteOnBikes to c/nottheonion

Donald Trump put up a video of President Barack Obama being arrested by the FBI in the Oval Office as you can see in the screen grab. Trump is exceedingly happy about it, of course. The video starts with Obama and a number of Democrats all saying "No...

They're trying to insinuate that the accusations on them are of the same legitimacy of those they've been throwing at everyone for decades.

If their claims are rebuked as baseless, they'll call the claims against them baseless as well. If the claims against them are said to be substantiated, they'll point to their claims and suggest the same. It's the "tails I win, heads you lose" of a political scheme.

He's flailing so hard he is speed running through all of his tried and true distraction techniques. It's like watching Jordan Peterson on the Surrounded thing on YouTube. He's a one-trick pony, and it becomes obvious when you do it that fast.

I mean .. even MAGA caught on. Now, are they going to see the pattern, or are they going to go back to the mental gymnastics and become furious about a book in a school library in a state they don't live in? Unfortunately, we could safely wager our life savings on which option they will choose.

It's not being serious.

The movie is a comedy, not a serious attempt to diagnose the world's or America's problems, but the emphasis on ''only stupid people are breeding'' in the beginning of the film is one of the causes of the dystopia, that is eugenics, which is a disproven racist part of academia that had it's part in the nazi movement. So it's a dangerous idea to promote, but that's not what the comedy is about. It's just a gag.

We watch your society start to break apart the moment it drifts even a tiny bit away from white ethnostates. Hungary and Poland fell before the US.

I'm an American who moved to the Netherlands in July of '22. I spend a lot of time going back and forth. My then fiancé, now my wife, was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis during the pandemic. Given the obvious price difference for medication to treat the disease, I decided to move in with her instead of her coming to the US.

I find it disheartening to see what the rest of the world thinks about Americans up close. I am competently multilingual enough to hold conversations. I have to admit now that I understand why other natively born Americans pretend that they're from Canada outside of the U.S.

Despite my embarrassment about the body politic and discourse from my country, I find that the the same authoritarian, isolationist, and anti-intellectual mind-viruses that permeate through society in the United States (especially in rural communities) have a beachhead here in Western Europe. Either that or they've always been here to begin with. To me, the difference is that the scale is much smaller.

Yeah, for sure. The Russians have been busy in all countries. The reason things got out of hand in the states is because you have a two party system. You only need to control a few people to control enough to take over the country.

That being said, Americans need to take a page out of the French play book at this point. If you try to make a Frenchman work an extra half hour a week, Paris will burn. That's the level of outrage you need here. Nothing short of that will be effective. Don't protest, riot! A few people hanging about with plakards isn't going to cut it when the government is deciding which TV shows they'll allow, threatening politicians, protecting pedophiles, killing witnesses in federal custody, detaining people without cause, deporting/imprisoning people without trial, and deploying combat troops against peaceful protesters.

I'd like to point out that all this shit is not normal and Americans need to understand how deeply fucked up the situation is. From where I'm standing I'm not sure most of them do. Yeah it's regrettable that fascism took hold in the states despite the rest of the world screaming at them to stop, but what's really alarming is that they're just kinda going along with it.

As a leftist American, you're right. There's a simply incredible amount of the population who refuse to participate in politics at all, then another huge swathe who gets all their news from social media or a single source which never gives the whole picture. I've protested, I've written my leadership, I've changed family and friends to the side of sanity but it feels like there's just no winning like this. I'm ready for a general strike, to stop paying federal taxes but it's all self harming if done alone. Our leaders have failed us basically across the board and I'm hoping that they've fucked up enough in the eyes of the general public so there's a correction and we can get this country far more socialized and kick corporations off welfare.

Bold to claim we had to export it. This is like someone saying "yeah, we've got black mold, but it obviously came from our neighbours, and has nothing to do with the raw sewage we've left in the basement for the last eighty years!"

Literally none of those things first gained traction in the Americas. As a US citizen, I think we need to be doing a general strike with riots in the streets and shutting down interstate trade with our bodies marching on the highways.

For the record, we average citizens don't want to be the "world police". This is what President Eisenhower was referring to as the "Military Industrial Complex".

Starting in  the  1980s,  the  United  States,  which  insisted  on  strict  terms  for  the  re-payment of  Third  World  debt,  itself  accrued  debts  that  easily  dwarfed those  of  the  entire  Third  World  combined — mainly  fueled  by  military spending.  The  U.S.  foreign  debt,  though,  takes  the  form  of  treasury bonds  held  by  institutional  investors  in  countries  (Germany,  Japan, South  Korea,  Taiwan,  Thailand,  the  Gulf  States)  that  are  in  most  cases, effectively,  U.S.  military  protectorates,  most  covered  in  U.S.  bases  full of  arms  and  equipment  paid  for  with  that  very  deficit  spending. 

This has  changed  a  little  now  that  China  has  gotten  in  on  the  game  (China is  a  special  case,  for  reasons  that  will  be  explained  later),  but  not  very much — even  China  finds  that  the  fact  it  holds  so  many  U.S.  treasury bonds  makes  it  to  some  degree  beholden  to  U.S.  interests,  rather  than the  other  way  around. 

So  what  is  the  status  of  all  this  money  continually  being  funneled into  the  U.S.  treasury?  Are  these  loans?  Or is it tribute? In the past, military  powers  that  maintained  hundreds  of  military  bases  outside their  own  home  territory  were  ordinarily  referred  to  as  "empires,"  and empires  regularly  demanded  tribute  from  subject  peoples. The  U.S. government,  of  course,  insists  that  it  is  not  an  empire — but  one  could easily  make  a  case  that  the  only  reason  it  insists  on  treating  these  payments as  "loans"  and  not  as  "tribute"  is  precisely  to  deny  the  reality of  what's  going  on.

It's a role that they gleefully took on so they could go around telling others what to do.

The young left has become the world moral police and it has nothing to do with the military, right wing uses the military. The young left is just using shit slinging. But Americans need to get to the back of the line when it comes to moralizing or leading global issues, the rest of the world doesn’t want to hear it from Americans

I don't understand anything you just typed. Who's "young left"? The global "young left"? You think only the "right wing" uses the military?

And who should be leading global issues? Europeans? Chinese? Russians? Indians? G8? G20? UN? Who?

Or is it that Americans are the only ones who can't or shouldn't be allowed to "lead" or "moralize"?

Genuinely confused.

Do you know what I do when I go to bed? I sleep. Almost instantly. I don't lay there and stress and worry about what I did. I don't worry about how I'm percieved. I just sleep.

You can see by his actions that trump is a deeply troubled, deeply insecure, deeply stressed man. And I use the word "man" in the loosest of definitions.

Everything he's doing, from the CBS cancelations, to blocking the commanders stadium deal, to whatever this ai video bullshit is, it all screams of a man grasping at straws, desprate to change the topic.

No, because he's a successful, smart black man. They have to make an example of him

Huge B5 fan, but I'm drawing a blank. Trump is like Clark, but what else am I missing?

I remember Clark's guys faked a video of Sheridan when he didn't give them what they wanted.

Let's just hope Cheetohead doesn't leave a note that says "Scorched Earth" on his desk.

He probably would if he could. If Reagan's Star Wars program went through? Jan 6th would have been even worse.

Well, by 2029 (or 2027 if Democrats retake the House and Senate), we should be getting a video of Trump being arrested by the FBI in the Oval Office.

If you haven't read Neal Stephenson's 'Fall', you should (though reading 'Reamde' for context on some of the characters may be useful).

'Fall' is about half Paradise Lost for the digital afterlife (less-realistic), but the other half is a fairly believable take on the outlook in a 'post-truth' world of deep fakes and AI slop.

I think the president’s own media release would be a good place to start or has media literacy failed you already
