This is what the radical far right wing of the US establishment is thinking about Canada. This has echoes of Project 2025 “when they tell you who they are, believe them”.

Wow. Although I do still think it is written with some LLM assistance, and I don’t think the authors sincerely believe the absurd alt-history they’re espousing in this article, I am sad to say I think your assessment here is actually spot-on.
I got a slop vibe after reading just a little of it, and then clicked away and skimmed their other article titles (“Based International Law”, “The GIGACHAD Approach”, “Shitposting as a National Asset”, etc). then clicked to the homepage and saw their “Generated Affairs” (
thisforeignaffairsarticledoesnotexist.com) LLM thing under Special Projects, and I naively concluded that the whole thing was merely an edgelord trolling project.Looking at it a little closer now (and seeing that their other link under Special Projects https://rickovercorpus.org/ is actually a serious thing which links back and thanks them for funding) I am also horrified.
I still think it is an edgelord trolling project, but it is one with a likelihood to be seriously influencing actually-powerful people 😱
That’s what makes me so uncomfortable. This is the spec of shit around which a whole “project 2025” type project can be spun around, the kind of thing that nobody takes seriously because it’s just out there …until all the people who authored and funded it start appearing in positions of power.
