Everything from the Trump administration has been tied to a mythical culture war.

This strategy only works for a certain amount of time because at some point people realize they still can’t pay rent, afford healthcare, buy more groceries or improve their overall quality of life.

It's amazing how insane graphics have gotten for anime games, only for them to become devoid of any and all creativity. They somehow all end up looking exactly the same. Real monkeys paw shit.

Facebook lied about video view counts to pump up numbers. I think if people are using instagram, they're not actually getting accurate numbers--similar to how people are not getting actual engagement on twitter.

The numbers are a lie
Here’s another tip: how about we all just ditch Instagram???

It’s crazy how much creatives insist on staying there while simultaneously going oh no one sees my posts, I’m not growing, etc.

Girl stop, it’s not you, it’s the app.

This is why hating and mocking AI relentlessly and publicly is vital work.

The company said the moment served as "an important learning" as it explored "the effective use of AI"

In a few years it’ll be Ukrainians who were betrayed by the US and decide they have nothing to lose.

The US treats its own soldiers terribly that there is such a concept as homeless vets. It treats its allies, or recruited allies, even worse that I’m surprised this doesn’t happen more often.
If I'm understanding this correctly, the man who shot two national guards in DC was a former Afghan child soldier who fought alongside US special forces and in a CIA-supervised unit and later was granted asylum. The word "blowback" comes to mind.

I completely agree and this is a great point, but I have to admit it's pretty frustrating when I *was* that youtuber and people levy that complaint. I've been told I only hate FF13 because of youtubers but it was ME! I WAS THE ONE WHO HATED IT SO HARD PEOPLE LATCHED ON
My even more unpopular opinion is unless you have personally experienced the thing, you should probably refrain from having an opinion on it.

We need to return to shaming people for parroting YouTube/TikTok with stuff like "When I want your opinion, I'll just find the YouTuber who gave it to you."

The same rich idiots that told me downloading a song on Napster was like stealing a car are trying to tell me that absorbing every movie ever made into *THE ROBOT* is fair use, actually, and a legion of dickriders coming to defend them because it's the future. Like fuck off.

My point about people being desperate for a free pass couldn't have been more dead on. Incessant arguing in the youtube comments about how it's actually okay in response to a discussion in which I said "hey do whatever you're gunna do, I'm not going to tell you." But still desperate for approval

It's really fascinating seeing the back and forth of splitting hairs people are making in the CSB youtube comments about how it's not GenAI, it's actually just feeding VA into TTS and that's totally different, when the game has this disclaimer on its page.

Really good example of trying to foster AI doomerism in the comments I was describing. Even IF all of that is true (it's not, but sure), I can't stand the attitude of, well, since you *must* use X that's ethically compromised, you might as well just give up on everything! Just begging for a pass
