How would you classify this? I know it to be fake, but its created to make a point. But its good enough that someone could be fooled intl believing it was real, no?

More specifically, you pay tax first to the country where the income was generated, and are usually tax liable to the country you are resident in.

Typically taxation treaties prevent double taxation, but the net result is you will usually get hit with the equivalent of the highest tax across jurisdictions.

I hear you, but this is subjective and not objective. A bad faith actor, presumably an authoritarian government, can exploit laws like this to advance their agenda. "Yes, I was definitely convinced that was George HW Bush".

Subjective judgements are ripe for abuse of power, sadly.

It's a slippery slope from something that is otherwise well intentioned.

Define what a deep fake is over a parody or other political commentary.
