Yep, that’s what we see. No one is a villain in their own mind.

But it does describe an embattled hero surrounded by villains on the snatching victory from the jaws of defeat.
Heroes kill people all the time in stories. We don’t disparage the hero because they killed because it was for a good cause. And like imagine if the hero didn’t kill the bad guy and next week you’re dealing with the bad guy again. Clearly RFK and friends are fighting the good fight and have to defeat the bad guys once and for all.
Obviously to me it’s BS but the point is that they might see the bad stuff and justify it because of the greater good or whatever. We’ve learned through countless tales that ends don’t justify the means and doing bad things for the greater good is usually bad and often terrible. But we also have an imagination and empathy. And know how to read.
Fiction is full of stories that teach you right from wrong. The distinction gets more complicated as we get older so we use stories to explore the ideas. WE do that, our current leaders do not. And because of that they are lacking in empathy and didn’t see the patterns that they are following. And don’t see the history that they are rhyming with.

It’s the same mindset and response as is directed at regressive states. Now I’m not saying I don’t agree with the sentiment, but even places like Florida and Texas have literally millions of people that continue to try to do their part too.

I heard about Notebook LM recently. I couldn’t tell you what it’s trained on but I’m order to use the LLM you need to provide it source material.
So say you’re writing something for school. You can gather 50+ papers on the subject you’re trying to write about, upload them, then ask the LLM about what you uploaded. Sounds like turning research from a search for info to an interview with an “expert.”
Again I can’t speak to how it was trained in the background but this seems genuinely useful.

Damn! Mine are definitely coins, mixed in with a bunch of coins from other countries I’ve been to…I just need to find the yogurt container they all live in.
