My mom never thinks about reality in any self-aware context and legitimately believes she has a hard-line directly to Stevie Nicks and megachurch preachers.

I quit trying.

    Yeah, I'm just gonna bet that the OP statement doesn't represent anywhere near enough of the general experience. I knew I had lost the battle with my mom when she shared that video of a girl holding a 4ft snowy owl, and when I told her that animal doesn't exist she responded "You don't know everything!"

    Same. The tweet (or whatever the blue sky version of that) is wishful thinking.

    I know too many old folks who love AI slop. Everything from watching fake puppies save fake kittens from a fire to uploading their old photos and have AI turn it into a video.
