Considering his first two predictions, this prediction is more than a little concerning.

    I love how there’s a ton of comments and upvotes here, yet OP’s article is paywalled behind a subscription. Did anyone here actually read it?

    It reminds me of a post I just saw elsewhere, with total nonsense in the link. Since it was already upvoted, the moderater left it up as an experiment: it got a boatload of upvotes and comments. No one cared, even with someone pointing this out in a comment. It was just a bunch of the same comments affirming what they already believed.

    …That about sums up the internet for me now. People don’t actually care where information came from; they just want to drive by, then keep scrolling :(

      And also youtube is a cesspool of AI misinformation. Just blatant lies about major world changing events. And tons of comments about the completely fake news article. Have to scroll a mile down to finally see someone using a little bit of critical thinking. I think we are in trouble 😳

      No.

      They are just a bunch of anti-USA types who just think this conflict is evidence of the collapse of America, or something. And they are eager cheering on the supposed downfall, and begging for any narrative or infopoint that makes america look bad.

        Or I am someone who lost his enlisted best friend to the Iraq war.

        But yeah, you totally know me and my motivations.

        You worthless fucktard.
