   Here's the thing, people, sharing trump's AI-fake of Kamala Harris unintentionally contributes to the spread of the misinformation. Even if you are sharing faked/false content to complain or critique, you are still lifting it into peoples consciousnesses. It adds to the repetition that serves to plant it in peoples minds--even if unconscious or opposed. It's possible to share that there is a faked video and write about its contents without uplifting it.

     @tylerzonia Special case of the general principle:

     NEVER spread fascist propaganda.

     If necessary, share redacted excerpts clearly modified so that there's no way they can be mistaken as the original message.

     But preferably, just describe and report on newsworthy propaganda in the most unflattering way possible.
