Whenever the media starts freaking out about deepfakes and how they will mislead the world, I'm always completely nonplussed. Our public discourse has been dominated by lies and propaganda, on a mass scale, for decades. People can be misled by a scribble on a napkin. I'm not sure it matters that now the napkin looks "super real." #getoffmylawn
