Occam’s razor
So in your opinion, the simplest explanation is that they went out of their way to try and disguise a cut for -some reason- rather than they just used deepfake tech? Ok, well that's fine that is your opinion, but to jump from "I came to a different conclusion than you" to "OMG OP is a Sensationalist pushing an Agenda and they are literally DESTROYING LEMMY!" is quite the stretch my guy. You seem to have a more sensationalist take than me from my pov.
Not to mention the mindless upvotes, because “Trump” + “AI” = upvote.
Why are you so hung up on upvotes? Can you buy anything with them? Maybe people aren't 'mindlessly' up-voting things- maybe they see the same things I do. You ever think of that? It seems like you just think everything that doesn't agree with you is wrong and bad.
If you have some proof of what you are saying I am perfectly open to hearing it and I will edit my post- until then its just so much wind.
