Al Gore Warns: People Having Access To Non-Mainstream Information "Threatens Democracy"
Al Gore says that people having access to information outside of mainstream media sources is a threat to “democracy” and that social media algorithms “ought to be banned.”
Yes, really.
Gore made the comments during an appearance at the Cop28 climate change hysteria conference in Dubai.
Gore whined that social media had “disrupted the balances that used to exist that made representative democracy work much better.”
The former Vice President said that functioning democracy relied on a “shared base of knowledge that serves as a basis for reasoning together collectively” but that “social media that is dominated by algorithms” upsets this balance.
According to Gore, people are being pulled down “rabbit holes” by algorithms that are “the digital equivalent of AR-15s -- they ought to be banned, they really ought to be banned!”
Gore claimed, “It’s an abuse of the public forum” and that people were being sucked into echo chambers.
“If you spend too much time in the echo chamber, what’s weaponized is another form of AI, not artificial intelligence, artificial insanity! I’m serious!” he added.
Gore….THIS GUY came across my radar today coincidentally.
Sir St. George Gore (1811-1878) was a wealthy Irish nobleman, baronet of Gore Manor in County Donegal, who loved hunting and fishing.
I learned he was responsible for the slaughter of thousands of buffalo, Wolfe, bear, mountain lion, etc. Left them to rot, mostly during a 3 year expensive “American Safari”.
I wonder if he’s related to Mr. Environment? THAT would be an inconvenient truth.
An initial scan would indicate that this guy was not directly related. According to this newspaper clipping of his death announcement, he was 67 and unmarried.

Well, this was a fun little rabbit hole! This guy was a completely arrogant asshole, who did get a measure of comeuppance - as chronicled by historian Dave Walter of Helena, in his book, "Speaking Ill of the Dead, Jerks in Montana History." (2000)
