Hot take: that viral 'mayor' speech from last month was a bad fake

I was watching the supposed town hall address from Springfield, and the guy's left ear never moved once, not even a twitch. I ran it through three different detection tools and they all flagged the same unnatural jawline shift. What's the most obvious tell you've seen in a political deepfake lately?

Ever notice how nobody blinks anymore?

That's so true, it's like everyone is just staring at screens. I started leaving my phone in another room for an hour a day. Honestly, it helped me remember to look away and blink more.

The Springfield clip had a weird frozen shadow under his chin. I've seen better effects on those free phone apps, and they're usually full of ads. It's getting hard to tell if a politician is lying with their mouth or their metadata.
