Some people really cannot separate the video they're watching from the text that someone overlaid on the video. If I record someone moving a box from a room, I can put the text "this is a box of unscanned ballots ->" and "the employee is taking them out towards the parking lot" and some people will just unabashedly say they saw the thing happening that they read in my anonymous text.
You know, it drives me crazy that people fall for deepfakes that are poorly done and even get in arguments defending that they are authentic, but I guess they could be doing worse. Probably old people with bad hearing, anyway.
