Snopes is getting weak. Remember when we used to have to read through paragraphs of repetitive details before they ever got to the point?

That one was refreshingly quick & to-the-point.

Edit: upon closer inspection I see that article seemed short and quick to the point because you have to be a subscriber or allow ads in order to see the whole article.

No, spread it around. Let his followers believe it so that he loses influence with them.

This is a war, fight dirty.

No thanks. In trying to get rid of fascists and war criminals, not looking to become one of them .

Yeah see they're not fascists and war criminals because they understand publicity.

They're fascists and war criminals because of their political ideology and committing war crimes.

You however seem to want to protect and enable them, so I'd say you're already pretty far on the road to being one of them.

If you act like a Nazi, you're a Nazi.

Dunno, I'm pretty high right now. Seems to be working

And let future future generations try to fix the breakage? “Trump was great, its AI fake history, let’s MAGA Again”.

Slop is a historical catastrophe. Using it as a weapon is irresponsible.

It's already out there and accessible by every household and nation state alike.

Not using it is giving your enemy the advantage, and when that enemy wants to genocide people it goes beyond irresponsible to not use it to fight back.

Can you honestly say a future historian having to dig a bit further to ascertain if something was true or not is worse than losing an entire election to fascists because idiots believe the first video they saw online?

Bans states from regulating AI, gets AI images making fun of him... Honestly it's just to believable of an image so people are complaining. Should have went much farther

The worst thing you can do for a cause you care about is to lie about it. That's a Trump move.
