Wasn't that term entirely invented by the Democratic party to dismiss videos of Biden's "senior moments"?
I'm curious if the term predates that or maybe you're not in the US?
- intended 11mo agoI heard it this year, but its a term that once you hear it, you "get it". Definitely not an India only thing.
- IAmBroom 11mo agoIt seems to have been originated by two authors of a book on the 2024 election, where manipulative fake and misleading videos by the GOP were a widespread issue. Not sure why you're trying to pretend that the idea of fake videos is some anti-GOP conspiracy.
- parineum 11mo agoSpecifically the term "Cheap fakes" I have seen applied to genuine videos as well as doctored videos, all in response to videos of Biden though.
