Bottom left is my favorite. Melania is going to be sick all over Trump's suit if he gets any closer.

And she's been sick over his suit ever since.





Trump crowned? No faux King way!

Are you sure it wasn't a body double like all of Biden's ones?

Musk seems to make X rules up as he goes along.

Retweeting that ai Kamala Harris talking smack about herself, using official Campaign material. Now he says its parody and parody is allowed. Yet he did not retweet it as parody or even that it was ai. Now he has a 10000x view algorithm for his profile because he was so insecure about nobody listening to him, its gotten near 150M views. How does he not think this is dangerous. Weaponised political ai is obviously not intended as parody, even if he had said it was.

This is the guy who wanted to put some guardrails around ai. Im pretty sure it breaks Xs own policy on modified content etc.

I thought this was a parody, and had to triple check.

It's by TimPool, whose Twitter page is a fevered Trump supporter, boasting he's given the maximum amount of cash to Trump's campaign. It also has many, many post saying the 6 January insurrectionists were just misunderstood, totally peacful.

From the "we're NOT weird!" party

LOL, Tim Pool. That guy is ridiculous, as shown here:

 

 

Fast-forward to 12:18.

 

Note that the backing music for his segment in this is a song called "Clown Town" 😄

 

 

 

Also - is Kellyanne Conway badmouthing James because she didn't want him as VP in the first place? Of course, she says no:

Can Harris have a defamation case? 

 

He also said he would not politicise twitter. Hes done many such things like calling for "a big red wave" etc.

 

Didnt Meta/FB get raked over the coals for something similar? But I doubt as defaming or as far reaching.

Parody is funny when its motivation is satire humour. The difference is the motive Id have thought.

 

If you influence 150M, there has to be a number influenced by it, not all people are clued up etc.

I think the bar in the US to prove defamation is quite high. Otherwise you would get a case of anyone saying something like they simply don't like the orange buffoon, and he would play victim, running crying to court demanding compensation for his poor, wounded ego.

Geeze, don't they have any original ideas?

 

 

And that was painted, not some creepy AI hallucination.
