We're capable of making the channels to effectively end world hunger. One uncertainty of life would completely eliminated. But we don't because there isn't enough of a financial incentive to do so.

"We can't do anything about it because he's in another country. Ok, so here's how we're going to take Ukraine's minerals..."

Yup, I know it is impractical, not only that but because it is a digital recreation it will never be a completely truthful representation of anything. It was the same for film but the changes were understood and accepted. Doctored/manipulated images though were expected to be identified as such, for the most part.

Ideally photoshopped images should all be flagged as impractical as that might be.

If someone makes an ai clip of a politician saying something they didn't should we believe it cause the ai was convincing enough?

Really photoshopped images meant to seem as real as possible should be flagged. It sounds ridiculous just because it has become the norm to accept them.

I understand the reluctance. If they had to change platforms every time there was a controversy they'd end up on a platform with no followers left by the end of it. In this case it is merited though.

Fuck Nazis. Fuck Elon Musk.

The rest is an assault on the natural world.

MAGA deflects all introspection. This ability allows them to justify all their actions.

He's out to cripple Canada's economy, then he'll attempt to invade it. True evil.

Trump doesn't like that the US buys lumber from Canada. He's going to announce 34% tariffs on lumber from Canada in the next few days.
