Fuck him for taking anything from Tolkien’s legacy for his evil fucking purposes.

His immense disregard for the message of LotR makes sense because he also disregards the message of Jeebus, who he also claims to be a super fan of.

I think he might just be illiterate.

Also Paypal, and in a lot of ways, Facebook.

Also he bought and paid for J.D vance, and runs all sorts of alt right think tanks and influencers.

Sure! Why have AI assisted ambulances or firetrucks when you can slap an AI onto ICBM carriers!

Because ppl start to ask questions when the ambulance or firetruck gets to the wrong house, but there will be no backlash when the ICBM hits the wrong house on another continent.

It's not genocide if nobody is accountable. It's just "science"! That's an actual application of "AI". Extremely valuable to empire.

I’m sure this will work exactly as planned, and have no negative consequences whatsoever.
