27·1 year agoChakrabarti, a 39-year-old former tech worker and multi-millionaire, is best known as the former chief of staff to New York City Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, who drew national attention after defeating 10-term incumbent Joe Crowley in 2018.
Among other priorities, Chakrabarti supports guaranteeing health care for all, making public colleges and trade schools tuition-free, taxing billionaires, banning the revolving door between Congress and the lobbying industry, prohibiting Congress members from trading stocks, and turning PG&E into a public utility to lower people’s utility bills.

politics @lemmy.world•Senator Amy Klobuchar learned that a video clip of her was going viral. So she clicked on it and saw her face and her voice saying things she had never said. It was an AI deepfake.
2·1 year agoTheir voter base is not the most educated, so they are VERY susceptible to misinformation. Also, they have raised their base to be extremely reactionary.
It is not really the politicians these would be aimed at, even though some have very fragile egos and may act solely because it hurts their feefees.

18·1 year agoI think this is similar to the gerrymandering issue where, since only the Republicans have abused it for years, they have had 0 reason to vote for any legislation put up against it.
Now that the D’s are doing it, they might consider the risk is higher than the reward with Gerrymandering and say nobody is allowed to do it.
Just gotta start pumpin out gen images of Rs for them to reconsider their stance.
To be clear, I am very against AI gen images. But, like you were saying, I don’t see any reason for them to take any action against it until it affects them.

111·1 year agoStill being focus group tested. Need to make the meme cringe enough to spread, but still push their messaging while avoiding any solid policies.
It is a common talking point people use when justifying their anti-universal healthcare stance.
It is often paired with refusing to acknowledge the current state of US healthcare and thinking they are paying more for quality and access.
He is getting charged with Severe Ego Damage of an ICE agent. The penalty being a one way trip to El Salvador.

Neither of us can predict the future.
I am choosing to believe that America will change for the better within our life time. Call me what you will, but change never came out of defeatism.

You know somebody hit him with that and it hurt so much, he had to use it on someone else.
