I have never used. But apparently GPT 4o is (was?) great at sycophancy. Now OpenAI have started routing emotionally loaded queries to GPT 5 which is emotionally detached. So these people are losing their AI companion.

These all seem like important issues to me, of which there is a righteous communist solution. fyi I’m not American.
They are important issues - that’s not the problem.
The problem is that both the discourse & proposed “solutions” are presented in a manner of binary opposing options with neither being designed to actually address the problem. The idea is to keep the discussion going indefinitely.
The difference is the signifiers have been largely removed from their original essence and come to mean something else entirely. Terms like “Gun Control” are symbols that represent quasi-political identity that has very little to do with literal firearms.
This exists in tandem with the actual, real thing that is gun violence, resulting in an obfuscatory ebb and flow where communication is impossible. Politicians and pundits invoke the symbols to identify with target demographics, but the underlying material reality underneath all the spectacle is largely disconnected.
