When Trump got into office in 2017 I remember a historian focused on fascism said to watch for times where the leaders told you not to believe what you could plainly see with your own eyes.

At first I thought, maybe in ye old days that wouldn’t fly in our modern times, right?

This Epstein birthday card thing reminds me of the 2017 warnings.

Plain as day to anyone looking but the response is that’s fake or not his signature.

@mathowie I am almost convinced this is a major driver behind the push to make genAI ubiquitous. Once everyone has direct experience with genAI, it then becomes a plausible deniability machine
