Online right-wing dorks are finally falling for the AI-generated waifu — and allowing themselves to be duped in the process.
The young woman at the center of all his sycophancy is “Amelia”, who, we must emphasize, is not real. Still, she’s everywhere on places like
Amelia often proudly displays the Union Jack burn Pictures of British PM Keir Starmer rail against Islam and immigrants. he is also shown Reading notorious racist book “The Turner Diaries” and Proudly seen with Sieg Helling comradeOpenly betraying white supremacist and neo-Nazi sympathies.
But where did “Amelia” come from? according to reporting from GuardianHe was initially an imitation of a goth-looking character in a video game called “Pathways”. Funded by the UK government, the game was designed as a classroom tool to teach teenagers how to avoid falling into online extremism, but soon became the target of mockery by far-right figures on social media.
The trend was heavily promoted by an unidentified right-wing account on X starting on January 9, according to an analysis shared by Peryton Intelligence. Guardian. Since then, “AmeliaPosting” has grown from 500 posts per day to more than 10,000.
Of course, where right-wing outrage is involved, there is conflict. an account role playing as amelia Began promoting a new Amelia-branded cryptocurrency called $AMELIAJAK, which was retweeted by Musk and thus effectively endorsed. Guardian noted. (It’s notable that Musk has a documented fondness for AI-generated women, with even his own followers openly mocking him for “going AI anime.”) The meme coin smacks of a scam called a rug pull, in which followers are induced to buy the coin to inflate its value before the founder sells off all of its assets at a higher price. This causes its value to drop, leaving defrauded fans with worthless currency.
Not all meme coins end up being outright scams, but clearly someone intends to profit from Amelia’s “fame.” And in any case, the value of the coins often drops on their own, as they gain nothing more than a fleeting moment of Internet virality. Amelia may be out there working and destroying wokeness, but she’s also emptying the wallets of many far-right people who see her as the imaginary, wildly racist goth girlfriend they never had — but wish they did.
