Too close, too easy for them to escape, whereas ANWR comes with built in escape deterrent like wolves, grizzlies, and Bigfoot, not to mention the climate.

An earthbound Rura Penthe.

Got a Community Note on Twitter:



HB366 requires political ads with altered media to include a disclosure stating the content isn’t real. Applies to political ads, not all social media posts or memes. Non-compliance is a Class A misdemeanor. The bill has passed Texas House, under Senate review now.

Texas Bill HB366 aimed to jail people for Political Memes

“Let him finish his comment about my forehead.”

“If someone makes your forehead larger than it should be, I don't think they should be subject to jail time for that… this is an overreach.

We're talking about political memes and I don't like it, but this bill goes too far.”

Texas HB366 Exposed — Jailing American Citizens for Memes

• Class A misdemeanor: Publishable up to 1 year in prison

• this bill hands the full authority over to the a bunch of unelected bureaucrats at the Texas Ethics Commission

“It is a disgrace that we bring shame upon our body we're even deliberating such a measure in the state of Texas."

 

[PJay]

"Listen to how badly They want to jail Americans over Memes in Texas…

Democrats allowed millions of illegal alien criminal cartels into the US, and they're afraid to be criticized for doing it."

 

[PJay]

"If a Politician Reposts a political meme, they could be thrown in Jail…

Texas HB366 is crazy as hell…"

HB366 - Jailing Americans over Memes

“This body led an attack on Attorney General Paxton… and we're doing the very same thing with this legislation.

“The courts will strike this down, and the Texas Ethics Commission should not be the arbiter of truth and language.”

All the crying over an alleged 1st Amendment violation is absurd. No one is being prevented from using an AI altered ad, they are just being told if you do it you must disclose that it isn't reality. Disclosure requirements have already withstood judicial scrutiny and are allowed.

Slander laws apply? Fall under civil as opposed to criminal court?

Do they for political ads? All this law does is criminalize non-disclosure of such fakes. If it is disclosed as being a fake has defamation actually occurred?

That's the problem with AI artwork, some look almost real. Picture of Waltz drinking from a horse, fake or real? Is this a rider on AI porn revenge?
