This seemed suspicious so I read the bill and essentially it’s another bill being used to justify digital ID. Which is really disappointing because there *should* be laws against creating pornographic deepfakes of *anyone* without their consent but that’s not the real focus hey
Brother that is Freddie Mercury who was a gay immigrant performing at LIVE AID, a historic concert that raised over $100 million to fight the famine in Ethiopia because governments weren’t doing anything.

“GEN Z DOESN’T DRINK”
“GEN Z DOESN’T DATE”
“GEN Z DOESN’T BUY HOUSES”
“GEN Z DOESN’T HAVE KIDS”
“GEN Z DOESN’T SMILE”
Maybe because:
• They graduated into a pandemic
• Job hunted into an AI apocalypse
• Entered the housing market when rates hit 8%
• Watched a world war start before they turned 25
• Got their first paycheck and lost 30% to taxes they’ll never see benefits from
• Student loans kicked in the same month rent doubled
• Were told to “just network” during two years of lockdown
• Grew up on social media designed to make them feel worthless
• Watched billionaires add trillions during COVID while they lost their jobs
• Inherited a planet that’s literally on fire
• Were promised the American Dream and handed the American Bill
But yeah.
It’s the avocado toast.
