I made the mistake of letting my knee jerk and accidentally shared an AI image instead of something relevant and real. I really hope you’ll take a moment to consider the ramifications of sharing such fakes before lashing out at those who call them out - Because while we both have the same end goal, they are simply trying to make sure there’s as few roadblocks along the way as possible.

Thank you for catching the error, and I apologize again.

    This is AI slop. Sharing shit like this only helps Trump claim the credible allegations and evidence are also fake. Do a better job of vetting your stuff.

      I don’t think you deserve as harsh a response to this as the votes appear to suggest- You’re correct, I should have done better in vetting this one and will shape a replacement in the next few minutes.

      I appreciate you digging into it faster/better than I, and I apologize for the error.

          I’m a moron and saw Cleese post it and for some reason thought "well, he wouldn’t be that dumb before proceeding to be that dumb myself. 💀

        Yeah, that’s a good example of a real one that shows he’s a pedo not fit for the presidency

        Ngl I’m confused by this reference, because that clearly is not the same picture as this. And I can’t find a reputable source for this image either.

        I Genuinely feel that passing off AI or photoshopped images of Trump and teenagers as real and evidence of his guilt is not doing anything helpful. For example: my grandmother could hear that some of the viral images are AI, and she’d dismiss the entire lot as fake news
