Image prompters can never be real artists because a genAI tool will never draw leaves on a tree that will be obscured by a house in the final drawing so nobody will ever see the leaves

Marginalized folks have fought this all our lives: oppressors divide us so we can’t organize against them together. (They’ve spent *generations* trying to divide the black and Jewish communities for example.) That’s new for a lot of y’all. Don’t let our differences turn us against each other.
Also: the stress from all this fucking trauma and the feeling that we are not in control and the total helplessness is gonna to make us wildly irritable. We’re gonna be on hair triggers and we’re gonna lash out.
We have GOT to try not to turn on each other. Eating our own only helps them oppress us

If my art or journey ever inspired someone to try out art, I will always see this as a huge W (that's what the cool kids say right??)

But because they are also stupid, we needn’t be afraid to.
