The metaphor is comparing the idea of loyalty, a concept vitally important to the ideology of fascism, with the LLM trait of consistency. An LLM is highly consistent, so much so that common patterns in its output can be used to spot generated artifacts. However it is not "loyal" because loyalty is about being inconsistent in one's "beliefs" (expressed statements of knowledge) but consistent to a moment-to-moment truth defined by an authority figure.
You got insulted because you're debating in a way that seems catered towards "winning" an internet argument instead of trying to understand what WoodScientist was saying: that a fascist LLM would be difficult because it would require constant retraining to keep up with the ever-shifting fascist narrative. You've never even addressed this point, just repeatedly doubled down that because he said "loyalty" instead of "responding in line with the currert beliefs of the ruling party which change on a daily basis" that the entire argument is invalid and therefore it's "easy to train a reactionary LLM." You also keep confusing reactionary and fascist.
And I neither did a "drive by insult" nor did I "run away into the night." Though i will now rather than continue wasting my time on this. just came back to correct you yet again, and offer an actual ad hominem for you to compare against.
Fuck off, moron.
Loyalty is 100% not a vital part of fascism I know of no definition that includes loyalty at all and in fact your argument and the historic argument that fascists aren't serious only goes against your loyalty argument.
No you insulted me because you wanted to, don't victim blame boss. You did it because it felt good.
You literally made no argument, only provided insult and then ran away for a day.
And again to aggression and insults because you know you're in fact the "uhm acktually that's reactionary ideology not fascism" got, not me. We get it you read three body, no need to try to shoehorn that bullshit into conversations.
