TechnologyThe far-right Alternative for Germany (AfD) has developed a new software suite, driven by Google Gemini, Open AI and Anthropic’s Claude, that helps party members generate so-called “rage bait” social media postings.
Central to the new campaign is the Alternita platform, registered to the AfD’s general secretary Hans-Holger Malcomeß, which promises users social media posts “in five minutes, with your positions, in your style, your branding”.
In the case of the AfD, an undercover investigation by Germany’s Correctiv outlet revealed how, in a few clicks, a populist article can be turned into provocative posts to flood social media feeds.
All fascist should be neutralized
“The whole thing is tailor-made for the AfD,” he said, according to Correctiv. The investigative platform dug into Alternita’s source code and found that, at its heart, the AfD software suite draws on Google Gemini, OpenAI’s ChatGPT and Anthropic Claude – three leading AI engines.
Did you vibe code this turd in one afternoon?
Neiiiiiiiiiiiine!
That's why you:
-Report (Protect others)
-Don't interact (Don't give them engegement)
-Block (Protect yourself)
-Move on without thinking about it (Be happy)
This does not protect you from the guy that does watch these and decides to act out.
These people are breaking the social contract by manufacturing hate propaganda.
Yes... but how do we get this (basic) understanding to millions of people lacking it?
It worked relatively well on Bluesky during the last coordinated, bot supported right wing extremist influence attack. I don't think you can reclaim platforms that have already been taken over (twitter, meta shit etc.). There, just delete your account.
I doubt they were the first to built such a system. The idea is pretty obvious after all.
They just are the first to give reporters a guided tour of the system and test accounts to play with.
In the original correctiv article, they mention, that there seemingly was a plan to sell it to other parties
The alt-right propoganda is coming from inside the house
Stupid fascists can't even write their own rage bait.
Luckily it's hosted on their own fascist website, so blocking it should be quite straightforward.
scary and interesting
Do you have a link to the repository?
Just asking for a friend.
