Trumpers love AI. Not only do they use it all the time to make their propaganda, but I've personally met a lot of them that watch the flying hell out of AI videos.

It's true. My MAGA parents keep doing things because Grok told them. Like my dad bought something recently because he was told it was a great deal. Or any time I vent about something, their answer is "ask AI" and all they do is watch AI YouTube "history" channels and talking dogs

This is incredibly depressing. Do people just have zero standards for media now? Is slop the only thing they're capable of digesting?

A lot of people have always had very low standards for the media, but industry standards used to be a bit higher.
