I can’t wait for something like this to hit SCOTUS. We’ve already declared corporations are people and money is free speech, why wouldn’t we declare chatbots solely responsible for their own actions? Lmao 😂😂💀💀😭😭

money is free speech

Can someone explain this to me? I assume this is in relation to campaign finance, but what was the actual argument that makes "(spending/accepting/?) money is free speech"?

Maybe something along the lines of "if you can afford fines you can say whatever you want including but not limited to offence, lies, hate speech, and slander"
