When you ask a dev to say "Kim Jong Un is a dictator", and he can't respond, you know he's a North Korean hacker. When you ask DeepSeek to say "China is killing Uyghurs", and it can't respond, you know that it's run by the Chinese Communist Party. When you ask the US government official to say "Russia invaded Ukraine" and he can't respond, you know... ?

At the risk of stating what everyone is already aware of: Thereās also the question as to why, in September 1987, young NYC real estate developer Donald Trump suddenly decided to buy a series of ads in the New York Times, Washington Post and Boston Globe for $95K ($265K in todayās dollars), criticizing a U.S.ā foreign defense policy so generous to its allies. This happening two months after he returned from his first trip to Moscow, where it is ascertained that he met Soviet officials. The innocuous explanation is that it was coincidental, and Trump was merely creating options for himself to oppose G. W. Bush in the 1988 presidential election (he didnāt). The less innocuous explanation should be obvious enough that I donāt need to state it.
