It depends how the laws are drafted. There are a bunch of them. First amendment is not just about political speech. You're right that deep fakes can constitute fraud. Fraud usually requires the loss of property or surrendering a right. It is fact specific. Celebrities in the public eye would probably have less protections.
I keep forgetting about religion!
Freedom of religion
what does that say about me lol
You're right about religion, but if you read the first amendment, in addition to freedom of religion there is freedom of speech. That freedom is not limited in any way. That freedom is unqualified. Courts have limited free speech over the years, of course, with the most famous being speech that can cause imminent harm, ie yelling fire in a crowded theatre.
Doxxing people online is not protected speech
I don't think they knew that word when they wrote the 1st amendment.
Harassment is not protected speech
Not protected by who? Different courts have different interpretations. In fact, there are different definitions of harassment.
And there are already laws against harassment depending on the state or county
Aren't deep fakes in the category of fraud?
Or is it artistic expression?
First amendment is about political speech/thought
