(Real post from the real embassy sharing AI video)
einfach nur menschlich
ᴮᵉⁿ ᴿᵒʸᶜᵉVOTE IN THE PRIMARIESwell yes, fuck AI
but there is nothing here we don't understand as fake, so there is no threat here of truth being muddied by AI. we see this for what it is
what we understand from this post is commentary on current events
that is acceptable to post and interact with
nevermind that we all agree: fuck AI
@benroyce I thought it so obvious that I did not have to mention that the embassy is using an AI generated video. But of course, I should probably specify, that I am showing THEM using an AI generated video. This is not me generating an AI video to fake something they did.
You did nothing wrong. AI is obviously shit, but that fact does not preclude us from posting newsworthy obviously AI videos to discuss them. Nor is anyone serious going to complain this is fake, as if you are tricking us, because only an idiot doesn't understand this is a fake AI video

I am reminded that when DT says thank you for your attention to this matter, he generally means thank you for ignoring these many other matters. I prefer to adopt general inattentiveness in his media proximity, whether it's computer-generated or him-generated.
@electropict @randahl @menschlich
usually the most valid approach is to ignore trolls, yes
and donald trump is nothing but a giant troll
however, he is a powerful troll with a real effect on our lives
therefore we can't ignore him
until such time as he is out of office, then we ignore the fuck out of him
@benroyce @randahl @menschlich
Ignoring what he's really up to and what he would have you believe he's up to are rarely the same thing though...
Anyway, ignoring him didn't work very well 2020-2024. Post-mortem ignoring, now that I could get behind.
Rickd6@menschlich @electropict @randahl @benroyce interesting that he was only able to win when running against women- perhaps it’s the fear the electorate has of a woman president that actually won him the presidency? NOT his prowess in business, international relations etc.
@Rickd6 @menschlich @electropict @randahl
and all the assholes who couldn't vote for a woman, twice, giving us Trump, i blame
this includes MAGA chuds obviously
but it also includes fuckwits "on the left" who couldn't be bothered to vote at all considering the stakes
Fazal Majid@benroyce @Rickd6 @menschlich @electropict @randahl when even diehard right-wingers like John Bolton warned us he is a fascist, they couldn't say they weren't warned.
