TLDR

Beff Jezos, Nic Carter and Shaun Maguire posted that resistance to data centers stems from Chinese bot activity or useful idiots for the CCP. They cited X suspending roughly 200,000 inauthentic accounts, some focused on household energy costs from AI facilities. Jezos said the e/acc movement was built to counter such memetic attacks. Dan Primack replied that data centers employ far fewer local workers than auto plants once construction ends. The posts urge readers to reject the sentiment as foreign psyops while China expands its own data center capacity.

    X has now confirmed a Chinese bot farm of 200K fake accounts intentionally trying to manipulate public opinion against data centers. People might want to consider how common this has become and how it is manipulating multiple policy discussions on social media.
