    Something tells me no working-class citizen thought to themselves that this was necessary and voted for people who campaigned on implementing it.

    We are ruled by the wealthy.

      Now create a variation of the text and send another email with that from another email adress (for legal reasons this is a joke)

        I know people hate AI, but this is where it’s actually helpful. Take the text and ask an AI to rewrite it, or to translate it into your local language and then send it. Make it short and it might not even be obvious AI.

          I don’t hate AI and think it’s fine to use for a bunch of things, but using it to falsify the level of public engagement on a political issue is a clear misuse, it’s easy to see how that could make democracy not work as well, or backfire and be used as an argument that all the public sentiment about the issue is astroturfed.

            Is it any worse than using the canned response from the page? I’m obviously interested, I’m just using ai to make it easier.

            However a hand written note is probably the most efficient.

              Well, the person you responded to above was talking about sending more than one, which is the worst part. But even if you are only using AI to rephrase the canned response for your singular comment, that creates a situation where it is more difficult for them to actually read and consider different points people might be bringing up, because now there’s lots of messages that are basically just the canned response in content and intent but more effort to group together. Also the people going through them will probably be able to tell AI is being used, which could call into question whether someone was sending more than one even if you were not.

          Doesn’t really take that long to do it yourself though, and it would also seem more geniune. But yeah, I can see the usecase, I suppose.
