So when thousands of women (and children) were being duplicated--including in non-consensual AI porn--it was no big deal. But it took "only a 15-sec clip" of these two famous white men to draw outrage and fear. Gotcha. Cool cool.

Gavin Newsom being a transphobe is a plenty good reason to not vote for him but on top of that, he’s not been a good governor either. If you’re gonna go all in for an evil person, they should at least be good at their job.
