Together we are getting smarter!

We are learning how to NOT be duped by the MSM. It’s hard. Especially when you hear it from multiple sources (even though it’s all based off of one dubious source). I still fall for things now and then.

Another thing to be on the lookout for in the near future is “deep fake” info. It’s possible to make very realistic videos that appear to be a known person doing/saying something.

Here’s a new example from this week:

Very interesting. Very cool.

At first, I thought the derps would use this to implicate Trump or other good guys. But I think a FAR MORE LIKELY use is that they are going to try to claim that actual videos of derps committing crimes are fake. Don’t be fooled.

Another related likely tactic will be to make fake videos of derps, put them out there, then debunk them as the fakes they really are. Then after the public gets the idea that these are debunked, the real ones will start showing up and the public will be jaded and inclined to disbelieve them. So we need to be careful not to jump on the bandwagon with the fake (but probably believable!) videos.

I don’t think we’re going to be using a lot of video evidence on this one.

You are so right. Reminds me — remember back many, many months ago when there was a report of Tucker Carlson bad-mouthing Trump in an interview with a German magazine (Pretty sure it was referred to as a magazine.)? I have wondered often if that interview report was a fake.
