I joined the Control Room pod to talk ab AI voice cloning, child safety, & and how spammers, scammers, and even state actors use generative AI to manipulate. It was a very wide-ranging convo with former IC hosts — one of whom had his likeness used by scammers himself! [youtu.be/qoZDgNz8fPU?...]( ) [How Scammers Use AI to Copy Yo...]( )
The bills were *introduced* —which means you organize, call your representatives, & tell them to reject Idiocracy. No Kings. No Idiots. Showing up to a protest is important but this is how you keep YOUR kids & community safe. Belligerent normalcy works: just say no to Freedom Measles. RE:

It could be ‘the first of many’ but it doesn’t have to be — because you can say “fuck no, not in my state!” The same way antivax nutjobs organize — you can, too. Belligerent normalcy wins people over: “Not in my school! Keep your freedom measles away from my kid.” You just have to do it. RE:

His defense is grasping at “no no it might be AI” in a way that doesn’t even make sense. Would be far simpler for JD Vance to just call him a “kid” sometime in the next few hours, and then any Senate Rs who might be find this offensive will be brought to heel.

Phyllis Schlafly is exactly the correct comparison. Boyle is a mediocre thinker turned culture warrior who rails against the policies that got her where she is. This profile could be clear about what she wants, but at least points that out. [www.nytimes.com/2025/10/19/b...](

This “appeared to be” takes CYA caveating to the next level. If the New York Times is doing it here for an obvious authoritarian propaganda fantasy, they may as well stick it into every headline from here on out as AI videos of plausible events become more prevalent and realistic. https://morel.us-east.host.bsky.network/xrpc/com.atproto.sync.getBlob?did=did:plc:5bnbgj7gwebt6hhub4pa5c7n&cid=bafkreicqz6aoxg524gongjkygzyfbnvq3spo76k3ja3oqot4vevrktub5i
