AI is frying people’s brains.
Uber drivers have always been my barometer. In finance, in life, in politics, and in moments of global tension.
Two rides to the airport recently showed me just how bad it’s getting.
First driver was a Muslim guy. Very nice. We start talking about Iran. Then Israeli politics. I told him straight up I disagree with a lot of Israeli politics. He immediately relaxed and the conversation opened up.
Then we get to the Epstein files.
I tell him what I know. He nods along and says of course he knows everything about it.
Then he asks me if I know why the Iran war is happening.
I ask why….
He says because of the Epstein files.
I say alright, I understand the theory. People want attention diverted from it.
Then he goes further.
He says he is shocked I have not seen the real reason.
Trump slept with his daughter.
Yes. That is what he told me.
He knows Trump slept with his daughter and is bombing Iran to hide it because it was in the Epstein files.
I leaned forward and told him that is not real.
He said brother it is there. You just have not seen it.
I asked again to make sure he was serious.
He was dead serious.
His whole circle believes it.
Messed up right?
Second ride.
Turkish driver.
You all know I am Greek so that is always interesting.
I ask his name. We start laughing immediately. Good energy.
He says Istanbul. I say Constantinople. We go back and forth joking.
He says I look like Turkish actors. I tell him they look like me.
I tell him he is probably Greek and should check his DNA.
We even talked about how Western Turkey and Greece would probably be extremely similar societies if politics disappeared.
Great conversation.
Then politics comes up.
Again I say I disagree with a lot of Israeli politics. He gets comfortable.
Then Iran comes up.
He looks at me and says something that backs what I see on X.
He says Israel is leveled.
I say no it is not.
He says yes. Completely destroyed. Like Gaza. The media is hiding it.
I asked him multiple times because I thought maybe he meant heavy damage.
No.
He believes Israel is completely destroyed and the media is covering it up.
The videos he saw online convinced him.
Wild huh? Two separate drivers.
Two different backgrounds.
Two completely different lives.
Both absolutely certain about things that simply are not real.
AI images. Edited videos. Influencer propaganda.
It is creating parallel realities.
How do you question wars, governments, or geopolitics when millions of people are operating on fabricated information?
That is a serious problem.

Charlie and Erika's love story.
This brought me a smile tonight when the world lost this bright shining light yesterday.
@abigaildisney Do you? Do you know anything about the people who work their asses off to get somewhere in America just to have crime go unpunished and free hand outs for everyone? Do you Disney?
