This is about the Democratic primary. This is about the Democratic establishment pulling out all the stops against a progressive challenge.

I think you probably bump into first amendment issues if you try to mandate how and what can be shared in general. You may be able to regulate it in specific contexts, for example like in advertisements.
I think the only good way to do it would to have something enforceable on companies who publish AI models rather than individuals who share images.

Welcome to America, where dead pedophiles make more money than living working people.

Let's be perfectly clear, this guy was in Biden's administration, not Trump's.
He gave regular press conferences, lying through his teeth to downplay Israel's actions and smugly gaslighting anyone who tried to bring attention to the atrocities that Israel was committing.

Sure, agreed. My point was that enthusiam for Harris peaked when she chose Tim Walz over Josh Shapiro as VP, signaling a more progressive path. It came crashing down shortly after when she said she would do nothing different from Biden. People are sick of status quo politics.

That's precisely why she lost

Yesss, I used to love playing with this back in the day. Nice to have a game on my phone that isn't just a front for pushing ads or stealing my personal data.

I'll believe it when I see it. And even then I fully expect him to wiggle out of justice. In the meantime I will keep seeing these articles as pure cope.

Excellent point. I hadn't thought of it that way, but I think that's very likely an aspect of it.

It's the main qualification, aside from being an ass-kisser.

This is the same Democratic party leadership that ran Hillary Clinton and Joe Biden and Kamala Harris's campaigns. The same Democratic party leadership that cares more about stopping Bernie Sanders than about stopping Donald Trump. They know who's side they are on, and it's not the same side as you and me. The Democratic party is unfortunately rotten to the core, and it's all about the money. Imagine the concept of regulatory capture applied to politicians broadly and you will understand the modern Democratic party and the state of our government. We need a party built from the ground up to represent the working class, whether it be from the ashes of the Democratic party or otherwise. Primary them at every turn or run independent campaigns where feasible. The other challenge is that mainstream media is owned by the same corporate masters, so it will be an uphill battle regardless.
