The Twitter article, if anyone wants to read some totally-not-AI-written slop from a totally real person who totally existed before August 2026.
Look at the rambling essay:

On May 1, 2023, in New York City, Jordan Neely, a 30-year-old Black[3][4][5] homeless man, was killed after being put in a chokehold by Daniel Penny, a 24-year-old White United States Marine Corps veteran while riding the New York City Subway. Neely boarded the car Penny was riding and began threatening passengers. After the train left the station, as Neely was threatening passengers, Penny approached Neely from behind to apply the chokehold, and maintained it in a sitting position until Neely went limp a few minutes after the train had reached the next stop.
Penny joined U.S. president-elect Donald Trump and vice president-elect JD Vance at the 2024 Army–Navy American football game as a “guest of honor” shortly after his acquittal.[62] A few months later, Penny was hired by a prominent Silicon Valley venture capital firm, Andreessen Horowitz, as a “deal partner” in the division of the firm specializing in “aerospace, defense, public safety, education, housing, supply chain, industrials, and manufacturing.”[61] According to The New York Times, firm outsiders and limited partners expressed private concerns about Penny’s hiring, citing his lack of investment experience and the political controversy surrounding his trial. An internal memo obtained by the newspaper defended his hiring, saying that Penny’s military experience would help build relationships with “active-duty military, veterans, chiefs of police, sheriffs” deals with in its public safety and defense businesses.

You cannot make this shit up.
Wait. This is THAT Daniel Penny?! I thought it was some AI-generated fuckwad who just happened to share a name with the guy because it couldn’t possibly be him. Holy fuck
Indeed. I had to blink a few times and double check:
His Twitter profile picture. Its him:
…You cannot make this shit up.
Looks more like a thumb, tbh.
Ugh
“it creates more demand”
refuse to elaborate
leave
American men are not locked out of trades. Office jobs are not worthless. Higher education, even the lower quality ones, are still education.
Does anyone believe this appeal-to-the-feels Nazi propaganda? “Oh down on your luck? Smart people did that to you” no asshole psychopaths did that to you; just because they went to Harvard and used their higher education as a weapon against you doesn’t mean higher education’s at fault - that shit is enabled by the system of exploitation you live under, you dumb fucks
What’s that logic? More supply in the work force won’t magically create demand for more blue collar work. If anything it will just lower the paychecks of blue collar workers.
Supply-side economics. It’s the theory the Republicans have pushed since somewhere between Nixon & Reagan.
In other words, CEOs get richer and everyone else gets to foot the bill.
trains the robots that will bring manufacturing home
How does replacing blue-collar jobs help the blue-collar worker though?
Brainless propaganda
I am telling you the data center is not the enemy. It is the forge.
It is not X. It is Y.
Problem: an economy that stopped making things
Solution: produce more 1’s and 0’s
Bonus: that’ll show them office people and their diplomas!
How will getting rid of “meaningless” office jobs increase jobs for electricians, plumbers etc?
And how have men been “locked out” of those professions?
Women took those jobs, clearly.
If anything that would make more people switch jobs into the trades.
The people who want to rebuild this country should start with the roads and bridges and dams. Although I can understand the attraction of rebuilding by building something new. There’s no repair like something brand new!
Why would robots in factories give humans factory jobs again? Why wouldn’t robots just do those other jobs too?
I’m so tired…
Reagan targets nation’s blue-collar votes; President stumps to outflank Democrats for labor support
Standard bullshit. Works every time.
This can’t be new, the building trades have massively benefited from the data center build-out since it’s one of the only growth industries. Sure, the demand for electricians, welders, and pipefitters disappears once the data center is built, but just build more!
Didn’t Trump just xhit in support of data centers at the behest of Musk and the other tech oligarchs?? Data centers are massively unpopular with people all across the political spectrum. Talk everywhere about how Republicans couldn’t care less about all of us and want to build data centers where workers live. It’s so fucking ridiculous…
These tech bros and trump magats really think people who work manual labor and are lower middle class and below are stupid as fuck.
I pray they’re underestimating my countrymen…
an economy that stopped making things, the rot in higher education, and the loneliness of American men.
Yes, three things engineered by conservatives and capitalists will be solved by a thing engineered by conservatives and capitalists /s
