Biden: My Supreme Court Bill Isn't "Dead on Arrival," Speaker Johnson Is

We have a nasty, angry, bitterly senile man as "president," and the Media Patriots are all okay with this.

Musk linked this parody video:

The leftwing propagandists at the Wall Street Journal (yes, most of their reporters are far leftwing) attacked Musk for posting this, claiming it was a "manipulated video" and cheap fake.

Even though that's obvious -- it's obvious it's fake. That's what makes it funny.

They also try to report Musk to twitter's censors. They're trying to report Musk to Musk's Manager.

lon Musk, a master of the memes, is planting his flag in deepfake territory--and risking backlash at a fraught political moment.

Musk, Tesla's billionaire chief executive, on Friday shared on X an edited version of a campaign video for Vice President Kamala Harris purporting to be a parody. By doing so, he potentially breached his own social-media platform's policy against sharing synthetic and manipulated media.

The edited ad mimics Harris's voice to have her say she became the new Democratic candidate for the November presidential election after President Biden "exposed his senility." In the video, Harris's altered voice also says she is the "ultimate diversity hire," and says her work addressing the root causes of the border crisis was "catastrophic." . . .

By reposting what appeared to be an AI-generated deepfake, Musk might run afoul of an X policy instituted after he took over the platform. The policy, instituted in April 2023, forbids sharing synthetic, manipulated or out-of-context media that might deceive or confuse people and lead to harm.

Among the criteria listed by X to determine whether content should be labeled or removed are whether the media is significantly and deceptively altered; whether it is shared in a deceptive manner or with false context; and whether the content is likely to result in widespread confusion on public issues.

The policy allows memes or satires, provided they don't cause significant confusion about the authenticity of the media. Musk in resharing the video called it "amazing," but didn't say it was purporting to be a parody.

Lefties are always "fact-checking" our humor. They never, ever "fact-check" their late-night "comedy" propagandists, despite them spreading the same sort of "disinformation by joke."

Every joke in a late night monologue has the same construction: It begins with a real-life news hook, to explain the context for the joke. Then comes the departure from reality, the fake part, the non-true part. The joke.

No one ever accuses them of pushing disinformation.

But commies -- and that's what these people are, Marxist accusers and denouncers of everything normal and wholesome -- are always in denunciation mode against their enemies.

Why isn't Colbert guilty of "disinformation" when he makes something up for a joke? Because he's "On the Right Side of History." He is self-evidently good, so nothing he does can be misleading. And of course lefties are all intelligent and cultured, so of course they all understand his untrue statements are not factual. (Though they are, as Colbert once put it, full of "truthiness.")

But us? When we make a joke, it's intended to deceive people, and the people we're speaking to are stupid and ignorant, so they believe what we're saying is true.

And that's why Musk gets fact-checked and Stephen Colbert gets enough Emmys to fill his garage.
