I've "used" LLMs in the sense of collecting information to criticize them, but also in the sense of "accidentally pressed a button when someone moved my cheese again" or "called a medical provider's billing department and was forced to interact with an LLM-backed chatbot" or "used DuckDuckGo and it generated an AI summary on my behalf without asking."
(Yes, I know about DDG's noai flag. Sometimes I forget to use it.)

My point and objective with making such a strong statement without any caveats and nuance, though, is to draw a line in the proverbial sand: LLMs are fascist. Deciding how we deal with that and respond to that is much more helpful, I think, than trying to debate to what exact extent LLMs are or are not fascist. Once we admit that they are a problem, we can have a useful discussion about how to address that problem.
