        Which is exactly what i’ve argued a hundred times.

        I genuinely would not be surprised if half of these are being made by trolls for the explicit purpose of muddying the waters and confusing things to give cover/plausible deniability to what he actually says, since screenshotted tweets have apparently become a medium of information transmission.

      You shouldnt feel sheepish about it.

      I’ve already seen people using these fake tweets that everything thinks is soooo funny being use to defend and handwave the shit he actually says.

      but why use brains and care about common sense when some stupid fucklechuckles get a giggle.

            Very true. Mentioned this elsewhere someone suggestion a large watermark:

            I went a different route, though I avoided placing the callout somewhere it may be accidentally cropped.

            I hope the, uh, non-disinformation can have a simple start here, and if we’re big enough some day that kind of thing is a problem maybe we re-adjust. Of course, nothing stopping someone from recreating something to their less-scrupulous heart’s delight. (in the case someone is re-creating something to intentionally mislead, not re-creating based on their expectations of people’s knowledge and BS meters)

            Ahh just can’t wait for the proliferation of high-quality generated videos…

      I’d like to apologise now for when, in the future, I place a “parody” sticker on a genuine social media post. I know, there’s something wrong with me… but I thought I’d give you a heads-up about it as you seem pretty reasonable.
