    in my post i said:
    i mean.. i get it. (point 1) i'd never do it. (point 2)
    i also said, it is the internet and people will do that because famous people are... famous... and if there's an AI video of a famous person that I do like, i will give it a like.
    if Robin Williams was some guy who worked as a cashier at Trader Joe's his whole life nobody would care
    maybe Robin Williams should have never been an actor then he'd be unknown to the masses, like 99% of us on HN

    Essentially: it happens a lot so it must be OK. Lovely morals.

    People don't care about a random murder victim as much as they care about Rob Reiner; murder is still wrong and deplorable.

    Whiny bullshit.

    Upvotes and downvotes do not give any validity to an argument.
    Sorry it doesn’t make sense to you.
