Excellent thread on how the line between fact and fiction is being erased and how that’s harming people 👇🏼

And we collectively memory-holed it, and it somehow doesn't even come up in the election at all. Trump literally asks people "are you better off now than you were 4 years ago" and people say "you're right, I was better off 4 years ago". Completely erased from public consciousness.

on the Meta platforms, I currently have a cycle of ads for self-published sci-fi novels - usually named along the lines of "The Screaming Stars trilogy. Book 1: Courage and Dust" some covers still use pre-AI design methods. these ones - featuring a disturbing Space-ATR 72 - are a f-ing horror show

I’ve tried like 4 or 5 different “meta decks” and nothing feels consistent at all. When I make progress, it’s erased just as quickly

since I stopped commuting my brain has erased my map of the tube lmao I just got on the jubilee line to go to Warren Street Warren Street is on the Northern Line my eternal shame ;_;

the existence of 48 Palestinians (and their real oppression) defies so many narratives that they are functionally erased by so many groups/tendencies, even those who talk about palestinian liberation

“See, actually, for two or three years now, Maeve and I have had this very unpleasant feeling that we really should get out…”

I’m angry at #Apple ’s multilingual keyboards. They erased my preferences, attached languages I don’t usually mix and I can’t figure out how to make languages separate again!

Also noted: multiple people interviewed in this say they miss the “peace and prosperity” of Trump’s term. Again, no one remembers 2020. People have completely erased it from their minds. Dems should’ve been pound the chaos of 2020 into Kamala’s campaign. Stupid stupid stupid they haven’t been.

Threads got too political for me. All I'm seeing is "mentions of the musk rat" this, and "what do you want erased from the world" that.
