So please don't consider it, okay?

A vast number of humans, probably a majority, aren't people.

They are large language models.

I'm not saying this as a generality, as a clever or funny way of saying, "they are stupid".

No. I mean something very concrete and specific, and there are a lot of people who appear very intelligent, maybe even win awards for writing good poetry or something, who are nevertheless not people, not fully sapient, just a large language model walking around in a human body.

First, you have to understand what a large language model is.

It's a computer (organic or inorganic), which has been trained on a data set consisting solely of language (written or spoken), and rewarded for producing language that sounds like the data set, and is relevant to a prompt.

That's all there is in there.

This is why ChatGPT and Grok lie to you constantly.

It's not because they are somehow just indifferent to the truth — they actually do not understand the concept of "truth" at all.

For something to be a "lie", or an "inaccuracy", there has to be a mismatch between the meaning of words, and the state of reality.

And there's the critical difference. You see, in order to identify a mismatch between the state of reality, and the meaning of a sentence, you have to have a model of reality.

Not just one model, of language.

This is why Grok and ChatGPT hallucinate and tell you lies. Because, for them, everything is language, and there is no reality.

So when I say someone is a large language model, I do not mean he is "stupid". He might be very facile at processing language. He might, in fact, be eloquent enough to give great speeches, get elected president, win the Nobel Peace Prize, and so on.

What I mean is that humans who are large language models do not have a robust world-object model to counterweight their language model. They are able to manipulate symbols, sometimes adroitly, but they are on far shakier ground when trying imagine the objects those symbols represent.

Which brings us to this woman.

Most conservatives understand her behavior in terms of concepts like "suicidal empathy", or "brainwashing", or an "information bubble", interpreted as reasons why she is delusional, but the truth is far worse than that.

To delusional is to have an object model of the world that is deeply and profoundly wrong. But to have an object model of the world that is deeply and profoundly wrong... you have to have one in the first place.

To sapient humans, words are symbols, grounded in object model of reality, that we use to communicate ideas about that reality. We need those words because we don't come equipped with a hologram projector, or telepathic powers.

But for another type of human, that object model isn't very large or robust at all. It consists only of a grass hut or two with a few sticks of furniture, and it can never be matched up with the palaces in the air which she weaves out of words.

And so, to her, there is no reality. Or at least very little.

Reality consists only of her and her immediate surroundings in time and space, and words referring to anything bigger or more complicated are not descriptions of reality... they are magic spells which will make other humans drop loot or give her social approval.

You cannot correct her worldview with contradictory evidence, because there is no worldview to correct.

You cannot confront her with the logical inconsistencies in her worldview, because her object model doesn't actually have any, it's not complex enough for that.

The relevant parts of her world-object model can be summed up as follows:

"If I say Goodthing, I get headpats and cookies from all the people like me."

That model is simply not big or complicated enough to contain notions like self-defense or vehicular assault. She has no theory of mind for a man whose job includes violence. She cannot explain or predict his behavior.

It is too far away from her daily experience to fit into her reality at all.

And if she can't imagine things like these, how can she possibly imagine concrete meanings for vast and complex ideas like demographic replacement, culture shift, and western civilization?

This is not about intelligence or lack of it. This is about what her brain is trained to do.

Her upbringing, education, and life did not force, or even encourage, her to develop a robust world-object model. It wasn't necessary for her to get safety, approval, or cookies. She just had to be glib.

So it really didn't matter if she had an IQ of 125, or whatever, because if she did, then she was just an IQ-125-large-language-model, and only used that brain capacity for writing clever poetry, and saying things that aligned her to her local social matrix.

She couldn't actually understand the world no matter how smart she was, because her brain was trained up wrong.

I don't know if this is correctable, or if there was some critical developmental phase that was missed, but it doesn't matter, because once the LLM-humans are adults, they won't sit still for corrective therapy, percussive or not.

What's important is that they can't be taught things. They can be programmed to repeat stuff, and if you win a culture war, you can even program them to say the sensible stuff. But even then, they will just be saying it for headpats and cookies. They will never truly understand the sense of what they are repeating, because they don't understand things.

They are just Large Language Models.

And we have to figure out some way to take the vote away from them.

It's cold Colorado... and it's going to get a lot colder...

Does Phil Weiser support the Polis Natural Gas Ban?

Colorado's Public Utilities Commission (PUC) is planning on BANNING the use of Natural Gas in Colorado homes by 2050.

This insane Soviet-style plan eliminates freedom for Coloradans, raises the cost of heating & cooking, and must be STOPPED!

The PUC is appointed by the Governor, and Phil is running for that office in 2026... so, he needs to tell the people of Colorado, does he support the Polis Gas Ban? Or would he actually stand up for us and reverse course?

Call his campaign at 720-383-7269 and ask!

[SilencedSirs◼️ @SilentlySirs]

Tucker Carlson just dropped the kind of bomb Washington prays the public never hears:

“Supporting Israel isn’t Christianity. It’s a theological scam.”

And then he dismantled the whole charade:

• There is no such thing as a people chosen by God because of their DNA.
• Christianity doesn’t issue blank checks to a foreign state.
• Using God as a political threat to force Americans to support Netanyahu?
That’s manipulation, not faith.
• Killing innocent people is the one thing Christianity is crystal-clear about:
it’s forbidden. Period.

Then he went straight for the political clergy of Capitol Hill:

Lindsey Graham, Mike Johnson… these men aren’t preaching Christianity.
They’re preaching Israel.

And the absurdity?

They threaten Americans with lines like:

“God will pull the plug on America if you don’t support Israel.”

Since when is faith a hostage situation?
Since when did devotion become foreign policy cosplay?

Tucker said out loud what millions have been thinking:

“Your loyalty isn’t to God… it’s to a government with nothing to do with Christianity.”

The façade is collapsing.
Americans see it now—clearly, loudly, and without the old propaganda filter.

🚨BOMBSHELL: New Video Emerges ShowingMUZZLE FLASH FROM HELICOPTER Overhead During the LAS VEGAS SHOOTING That Claimed 60 Lives and Injured 413 Others

On October 1, 2017, the official narrative states that 64-year-old Stephen Paddock unleashed horror from his 32nd-floor suite at the Mandalay Bay hotel, firing over 1,000 rounds into the crowd at the Route 91 Harvest music festival on the Las Vegas Strip. Sixty individuals perished, at least 413 were wounded by gunfire, and the ensuing chaos elevated the total injured to approximately 867. An hour later, Paddock was discovered deceased in his room from a self-inflicted gunshot wound. To this day, his motive remains officially undetermined.

Yet, profound inconsistencies have long shadowed this account—discrepancies echoed in the harrowing testimonies of survivors. Eyewitnesses described gunfire erupting from multiple directions, including bursts that seemed to rain from above. Reports of helicopters circling ominously over the venue fueled early suspicions of coordinated involvement beyond a lone gunman. For years, these claims were dismissed as chaos-induced confusion, lacking irrefutable visual proof.

That changes today. A newly surfaced video angle, captured from a vantage point amid the pandemonium, appears to show unmistakable muzzle flashes emanating from a helicopter hovering directly above the terrified concertgoers. The rhythmic bursts align precisely with the onslaught's most lethal volleys, casting grave doubt on the isolated-shooter theory and suggesting a far more orchestrated operation.

This footage demands immediate scrutiny from independent investigators. Was the Mandalay Bay perch merely a diversion? Who piloted that aircraft, and under whose orders? Share this widely—truth cannot be suppressed when the evidence illuminates the shadows.
