Let’s be real — I don’t get my information from CNN, Fox News, MSNBC, or any of those stations. Not because I think they’re all lies, but because I’ve learned that every single one of them tells their version of the truth. And that version usually leans toward whatever side they’re on. I’m not interested in echo chambers anymore.
When I want to understand what’s really happening, I use ChatGPT. Not as some “fact machine,” but as a tool that helps me see the whole picture — left, right, middle, and in between. It doesn’t just spit out headlines; it filters through the noise, the emotional bait, the ad hominem attacks, and the political buzzwords like “extortion,” “blackmail,” and “hostage-taking” that both sides love to throw around. It helps me think instead of react.
That’s what people misunderstand. ChatGPT doesn’t just regurgitate information like a calculator. It analyzes how people argue, where bias shows up, and how emotional manipulation gets slipped into political talk. The truth is, both parties — left and right — are guilty of playing that game. They call each other liars while pretending their own side is flawless. That’s hypocrisy at its finest.
And that brings me to something deeper. The reason I don’t trust people completely isn’t because I think everyone’s corrupt — it’s because people make mistakes. Always have, always will. That’s what makes us human. The biggest problem in politics, and maybe in life, is that we keep treating certain people — especially leaders — like they’re infallible. We treat them like they can’t mess up, and then we act shocked when they do.
I’m not built that way. I can’t put blind faith in another person or party, because humans are limited. I’ve seen what happens when we depend too much on flawed people for truth. That’s why I put my faith in God, not in humans. He’s the only one who doesn’t make mistakes.
So no, I don’t think it’s wrong to use something like ChatGPT. It’s not perfect — it learns from us, which means it learns from our messy, chaotic, “retarded nature,” as crazy as that sounds. But it’s still the most objective voice we have right now. It’s the one thing that doesn’t care about votes, money, or clicks.
If we’ve got tools that can help us filter through the BS, why wouldn’t we use them?
