AI-exploration of AI-avoidant biases in addressing the ethical meaning and implications of the headline question.
Without thriving, high-functioning participatory democracies, we will not bend the arc of our dystopian trajectory toward a practical utopian of co-creating a fair-free-flourishing future on a regenerating planet.
AI-exploration about the meaning and implications of the ethical question.
This communitarian and global question calls for develop AI-enabled neo-learners to create, understand, and address ethical questions that explore the complex interfaces of ethics, politics, and AI.
Ethics, politics, and AI are inseparable
Focusing on AI ethics without addressing politics is unethical. This calls for developing ecological frameworks of ethical questions at the meta, macro, meso, and micro-levels to provide the moral guidance for developing the virtues to co-create robust, high-functioning political systems that serve working families and not just the elites.

The emperor has no clothes
Trump is the greatest political con artist of all time.
#DontheCon is the mastermind marketing maverick of paranoia, fear, hate, anger, and outrage. As the supreme emotional savant of alt-right propaganda, he routinely plays the high-stakes game of using paradoxical projective interventions to evoke the amygdala-reptilian brain to manipulate and control the minds of his sycophant loyalists on the one hand and to incapacitate the minds of his opponents who are ineffective in speaking to truth to immoral power.
One of Trump's mastermind marketing strokes was to exploit Charles Krauthammer's conceptualization of Trump Derangement Syndrome (TDS). This pejorative label describes the intense negative reactions against DontheCon's policies and his hard-core MAGA supporters.
MAGA supporters claim that the hysterical reactions of snowflake lib-retards impair their judgment, logic and reason. This trope has been a highly effective way to delegitimize concerns about Trump's derangement.
The TDS trope puts his opponents in a locked-down defensive mode by maximizing dysfunctional polarizations and toxic divisiveness. This "divide-and-conquer" strategy atomizes and disables his opponents from developing counteractive narratives to deconstruct the alt-right propaganda playbook.
#TrumpFascistClown goes on the aggressive offense by accusing his opposition of his own faults. He paralyses opponents by inducing a counter-cult state of conflict avoidance.
He co-opts his disabled opponents to enable the MAGA fool-aid addiction. The passivity of his atomized opponents becomes accomplices to the cause of alt-right propaganda war by inducing silence.
The perils of the silent middle majority
The following MLK's quotes speak powerfully about the political silence of avoiding the ethics of injustices.
MLK equates the silent acceptance of injustices to enabling participation in the ethical dereliction of moral responsibilities.

A call for compassion, radical candor, and the bold humility of tough love
MLK is metaphorically turning in his grave about the ethical decay, the moral demise, and virtuous corruption of the US republic and constitution, comparing the 1960s to 2020s, under the MAGA flag of fake patriotism.
The US duolopy is in a downward spiral into the immoral abyss: the cesspool swamp of alt-right extremism driven by the alt-right cult of the BIG LIE, Deranged Trump Mass Psychosis, self-righteous fundamentalism of Christian Nationalism, and Project 2025.
AI-inquiries into these questions.
The USA is no longer a democratic republic. It is a rigged neoliberal duolopy corrupted by the plutocratic avarice of pathological megalomania and the cult influencers driven by malignant narcissism. Our corrupt crony democracies serve the plutocratic elites to the disadvantages of working families.
Declare January 6th #MakeAmericaTruthfulAgain:
Imagine Jan 6th as Equity Day for Freedom and Justice. This calls for reclaiming the true meaning of the word equity. The alt-right propaganda machines trigger the red reject reflex button by disparaging equity with the pejorative labels of Marxism, communism and socialism. They have turned DEI into a Salem witch hunt. This speaks to the powerful paranoia of McCarthyism.
Equity is the virtue of fairness and justice. Equity liberates freedom for all.
Equity is?not?about equal treatment or equal outcomes. Equity ensures that each of us, according to our needs, has fair opportunities to strive and thrive to our highest potential of healthy well-being within a beloved learning community.
Equity meta-governance is about co-creating fair rules, fair plays, fair games, fair opportunities, and fair rewards to benefit all on a regenerating planet.
Equity is about cultivating diverse talents, capabilities, and capacities to serve the greater good. Equity is about emancipating opportunities and unlimited possibilities.

Unravel Deranged Trump Mass Psychosis (#DTMP)
#DTMP?is the cult trance of blind unconditional loyalty induced by the fool-aid addictions to paranoia-fear-hate-anger-outrage.. The neo-terrorism of disinformation perpetrates and perpetuates DTMP to con unwoke MAGA working families to work against their own best self-interests, without their awareness.?
#Neoterrorism?is the propaganda war of words with psychopathic disregard for the integrity of truth-seeking and transparent accountability. Neo-terrorists play to win at any cost with no mercy or ethical fibers to serve their pathological megalomania to serve their avarice and malignant narcissism to serve their ego shadows. Anything goes, assisted by autocratic authoritarianism, to exploit people, opportunities, and the planet. The winner takes all.?
The alt-right propaganda playbook over activates the limbic-reptilian to disable the neocortical brain of rational and critical thinking, inducing regressive states of gullibility and self-righteous fundamentalism:?I’m right, you’re wrong, I’m good, you’re evil. Mob rule wins the election.
The hallmark of Deranged Trump Mass Psychosis is holding onto the delusional belief in the BIG LIE and denying or minimizing the January 6th insurrection.?

1 个月Dear Rick, so absolutely right. The speech and the show was surreal -please llow me to use this word - a real gotspe. The 47th president representing MLK? You do need a lot of nerve, or simply unconsciousness. Today’s inauguration was truly amazing, surreal and insightful. Thank you so much for sharing. Best, Frans

1 个月This bizarre juxtaposition of MLK day with the non sequitur of ceding power to an insurrectionist is pregnant with possibilities for societal self-reflection. Perhaps counterintuitively, a time and place of shameless individualistic authoritarianism brings into sharp relief our own individuals choices. As MLK's mentor noted "after all the extenuating circumstances of life have been exhausted, there is I... the fact, my fact... and the ultimate source of my power."
