          Btw, that’s a good point … who’s the moralists?

          If i got it right, the “libs” are woke moralists, while the Reps are the “christian moralists” or sth, right?

            who’s the moralists?

            “for a moment, there was hope” “For a moment, there was hope.”

            Moralists don’t really have beliefs. Sometimes they stumble on one, like on a child’s toy left on the carpet. The toy must be put away immediately. And the child reprimanded. Centrism isn’t change – not even incremental change. It is control. Over yourself and the world. Exercise it. Look up at the sky, at the dark shapes of Coalition airships hanging there. Ask yourself: is there something sinister in moralism? And then answer: no. God is in his heaven. Everything is normal on Earth.

            Idk i was just making fun of JBP because of “up yours, woke moralists!”

            Everyone is a moralist on the internet, it’s just another way to divide people. The differences between the dems and repubs are just for show. It’s been an oligarchy for decades, it’s just obvious now.

      Honestly, I wonder if that’s deliberate. Trump is famously litigious, and he has promised to weaponize the Justice Department against his political enemies. If you publish a video like this (ignoring the hacking onto government computers part right now), but that is clearly meant to appear real, what civil or criminal liability might you face? You could face a defamation lawsuit against a litigant with an unlimited bank account. You might face fraud charges by the Justice Department.

      But give Elon two prominent left feet? No one is going to believe the video is real upon any close inspection. Any reasonable person will conclude the video is fake, rather than Elon having two left feet. Unless Elon wants to admit he has two left feet, he can’t sue someone for defamation (at least under existing defamation law.)

      If this is deliberate, it’s actually quite brilliant. It’s an AI video version of the small penis rule. This might get around anti-deepfake porn laws, but I’m not really sure on that one. This is more a traditional defamation thing. Not sure how it applies in anti-deepfake porn laws.

      That’s what happens when you replace a professional photo editor with the ‘put glue on your pizza’ machine.

      Trump really isn’t getting off on the right foot, is he?
