I was immediately hooked to the gills with Pygmalion being my introduction. I decided to start knocking your posts and other out with shortest first so I read cobra tate. It's only been recent that I even became aware of such a character and I'm deep into my own thing and have been for a very long time so I'm not very familiar with...what passes for common knowledge in what I'm afraid to call normal society but I can't think of what else would be a better term. I just don't really participate in much of anything that passes for normal or have much knowledge of our current pop culture and its accompanying headlines.
Soooo...that gave me serious pause and I am sure that I am being correct in saying that was the very first time in my life I developed a fever from reading. And I'm sure that's what happened and I spent the rest of the day at a serious impasse and whether or not I should continue but I noticed your suggestions on writing and I perused a couple and felt a relief and I knew I was going to be following you down a rabbit hole and it's going to take reflection as much as understanding to slowly digest your work. It's really very incredible and I needed this. I've been on my own grasping at straws and feeling my way forward in pitch darkness for the last two years plus and everyone I have known for so long has stopped talking to me for awhile now so I don't even have a sounding board and geez...this is what I've been looking for and I'll be glad to just get through the process of the first reads of your works and suggested essays but the tate piece really threw me off and I do thank you.
I just wanted to acknowledge your generosity and I wish to express a heart felt appreciation.
If this does happen, actors on this side of the discourse might be able to gain a relative benefit because they're so used to living within and navigating an information environment that they are aware is flooded with falsehoods (progressive utopian ideals) that are nonetheless near universally accepted and promulgated by institutions that have the veneer of prestige and reliability.
(You merely adopted the psywar. I was born in it, moulded by it.)
Very nice collection of samizdat. First post I've ever saved.

Really cool collection of essays. Thanks!
It will be interesting to track if warnings about the 'disinformation' potential of language models to intentionally flood the zone with mis/disinformation by various actors actually materialises. See https://cset.georgetown.edu/article/gpt-3-disinformation-campaigns-increasingly-realistic/ for example.
