A fake article about Volodymyr Zelensky’s wife buying a $4.8 million Bugatti with US aid was promoted by bots, Russia state media, and pro-Trump influencers on X. It’s part of a network of websites supercharged by AI.

Glue on pizza ended up there too. We need to come to terms with the fact that google is shit now.

Not to mention John Backflip; the alleged first person to do a backflip still exists

Thanks for the info. I always wondered who the flip was named after.

It’s always interesting to learn things like that, because we have many names that people just use without even realizing where they came from, like for example how the Empire State Building was named after Frederick J. Building.
