If you have to tell deliberate lies to influence people then that isn’t democracy. That’s fascism or at least a kakistocracy - the worst and stupidest rule because they can’t get elected otherwise. Fuck twisting the First Amendment into a tool of lies and corruption.
the problem I have is that the law (609.772) appears to not only apply to political content, but all content that is
By the way it is written the "presidents play Minecraft" series which most informed people would fully understand was not made my any presidents would likely fall under this law.
I propose for every lie someone tells, we (we'll vote on who) gets to punch them in the face.
