So Twitter is basically a silicone valley squatter's nest?
If we're critically assessing the left, unless someone is doing a catty backflip in a spandex suit while proclaiming "IT WAS I! IT WAS MY MASTERPLAN ALL ALONG!" - they will jeer "nothingburger!". They have very theatrical standards for exposing their bullshit.
Nevermind the whole machine, stop looking at it guys it's just a "nothingburger"!
Personally, I theorize Elon himself is probably a shitposter. If that's the case he's likely had to keep a tight leash on his powerlevel and basically had to placate consituents and investors up until this point because often that's what being an adult is.
What I'll say about him is what I've always said, in that he puts on a good show. We needn't worship people.
Or hire some damn muscle, and for fucksake - what is this attitude of being gobsmacked when the right's political enemies are being mean? Of course they're laughing, because the right is a joke. These spiteful mutants basically get to do whatever they want and all they get in terms of pushback is OH MY STARS! IMAGINE IF THE ROLES WERE REVERSED!
This just in, Antifa is... ANTIFA IS FUCKING MY WIFE! UnReAL! SO MUCH FOR THE TOLERANT LEFT!
Shit's getting old.
I'm leaving because people say things I don't like! Did I mention that I made few catchy diddies and like peeeeenis?
Oh no. Anyway -
Your task is essentially Sisyphean
It has the potential to be, but I imagine Sisyphus is quite happy with himself. All those wonderful pools of sample collection will become like a frog-nail on the slip n' slide since legal cowardice is part of running a site. Deviantart proved that to some extent.
Handful of the most in-demand doing this is enough to knock the programming socks off half this rhetoric.
Do it. Seriously.
It already exists as far as I am aware, back in 2014~ artists would get struck down by pulling images off google for photobashing. Even the most minute portion of a cloud with a royalty on it could screw you over if you were mainstream. Many of the higher folk went on to do their own photography and sold their image collections on gumroad - invigorating both ends.
Though I would rather see AI starve, because if you get to wave around some bastardization knowledgeably sampled from my work and say "fuck artists lol! just take the blackpill :) There's nothing you can do lmao! Thanks for the 10+ years of samples ROFL! FOr FREEEEEEEEEEEEEE~~" - (like I see everywhere to the point where the agenda sticks out because nobody gives enough of a shit about artists this much to blackpill and concernpost about them) then by what right do you not expect to get slapped upside the head if it is possible if not probable? Should I instead offer you my wife? Should I hang my head and gwumpus? uwu
I think I'd rather play as dirty as everyone else.
Why on earth would I not then retort "pay up, tranny"?
Why would I not make this difficult for you, knowing that this not only guarantees that I lose my craft and way of life, with the promise of an aesthetically lacking culture abound, but also imposes the exact nepotistic troon stranglehold that turned my industry into an adult daycare onto what might have been the last bastion of artistic meritocracy? Why would I not be rallying right along with everyone thinking the exact same thing?
ADAPT OR DIE
More like, you no longer churn out soulless dogshit that your art director or client loves for some reason, now you polish the genie's soulless dogshit because it's cheaper and no one likes good or skillful artwork anyway - as that falls out of vogue, across all illustration we will see a long generation of shit art with hands tacked onto it - no one cares about a fucked up eye or a weird torso, so long as it vaguely looks like a Great Value!™ Sakimichan everyone loves it even if it is a bastardization of the good, the bad, and the ugly. Even with the old masters to train on it still looks like dogshit 90%~ of the time. Might get better, but I'd curb your enthusiasm.
Bastardization sample and begets bastardization output as the world become uglier, which will be because nobody actually cares. It's almost what we deserve.
But you know what? I'll humor you. Charging you up the nose to sample my work IS adapting, if not creating an adjacent industry for suing people with an equal and opposite AI that detects used artwork.
Nothing will ever make him unduck Sam Hyde.
He is better off with a millstone around his neck and tossed into the sea, Jesus said as much - I take this to mean that such a man is already liquidated and that to dispose of him in no manner more or less cruel/humane is a simple matter of moral hygiene.
You cannot kill someone who is already dead in the eyes of the Lord, and a corpse must nevertheless be disposed of with no motivations of personal aggrandizement.
A hanging will do fine.
Government killing people changes that.
A nEw LeAsE oN lIfE? LeT uS cOrReCt ThAt FoR yOu
You could have always have put a gun in your mouth, mixed meds, or inhaled your car's exhaust fumes, and the thing that seems to not be registering here is that the government creepily wants to do it instead and that they're uncomfortably forward with it. They insist upon being able to kill you.
It's like they didn't just see the canadian government get creepily totalitarian in a snap now they're not going to question or interrogate this creepy little power move. Why on earth would you trust them with that?
We did it reddit! What did we win?!
The impotence of gravedancing on an irrelevant 71 year old woman to feel like you matter for a whole 2 minutes~ish.
Also, any grown man that feels compelled to write "xoxo" may aswell also advertize his gynecomastia to the world right along with his bracelet collection.
Isn't this the dude in a dress that threatened to twist Benny boy's shit up on live television?
I imagine the real men's men around her probably know a whole lot about wearing women's clothing and worn out knees to differentiate.
There come times when you simply have to accept the clownworld for what it is. I get the feeling more like kanye will emerge in due time - can't stop the bleed now, kanye has too much recognition. He ain't the only one either.
I think a lot of "them" are tired of being (((their))) bitch and they eventually will turn against their real masters. I am perfectly fine with this being the new woke.
No one man should have all that power.
There is an entire unspoken verbal insinuation of hyperbole that extends beyond the holocaust, that if not elaborated, is taken to mean a complete dismissal of all events of suffering to the laity. This is leaned on heavily.
Rich hearing some creepy old draft dodging war criminal's take on this. Antisemitism and holocaust denial only bud from noticing how spiteful they are towards us and how none of it can be questioned or interrogated beyond their meticulous curation. All it takes is falling down the slippery slope of the hot takes from the rabbis running their mouths at the time and thereafter to feel duped. Not to mention the sheer ridiculousness of many accounts, the outed and admitted fakes, demographics, ommissions by leading figures, the doctored photos, soviet integrity, etc. None of which is to say that no one wasn't worked to death or subject to abject cruelty or murder. But I will say is that my country's casualties objectively mean more to me even in the highest, most cartoonish estimations of cruelty towards the jews - try getting away with saying that publically, in a country that liberated them no less.
All I know is Hitler never laughed about my being replaced. Hitler never said "Hey, your little boy here should be put on puberty blockers, be renamed 'Lactasia' (fucking 'nipple milk'), and be eyecandy for pedophiles and I am totes cool with that! Oh and you cant do anything about it! haha progress!". Hitler is objectively less evil than globohomo.
Thanks, been looking to run back to 2016 for awhile now back when populism and "middle-of-the-road" was still a thing.
Real talk though, anything that hesitates dies out in the political wilderness. This is why you hear "solidarity" thrown around so much when they're backing something fucking retarded, the left are lightyears ahead, so far ahead that up the foodchain they hand-up-ass puppet most of the right's major panels. Individually they are obnoxiously stupid but collectively they are far more potent. They're hungrier and want it more. The right and the "middle" just want to be comfy-wumpfy and fold the moment they are called a big ole naz. They're just along for the ride, their platform is literally "destroy my culture but do it in a meritocracy and do it legally!". The right is a fucking joke. "Run muh country into the ground so long as it's legal-like!" " Oh you want me broke, dead, and my kids brainwashed and raped? Let's vote on that! (Oh haha what are you doing? okay see what the immigrants and the dead think...) Let the best man win but hey, no cheating!" "Welp you won fair 'n square! Put 'er there, partner!" "HEY PARTNER, FUCK MY WIFE BUT DO IT LEGALLY!" "ImAgInE iF tHe RoLeS wErE rEvErSeD! (imagine if we were actually committed to winning)" Pathetic.
A middling stance is no longer an option for a hightrust society to emerge if it ever was and that position already made me "literally a nazi" miles back. These people were never going to pull punches just because you were nice and reached across the isle or tried to have an honest dialogue, you were always a nazi to them. They never gave a fuck about the rational position or the "meritocracy of ideals", you are the oppressor and the adversary - you are a nazi. If this is just some weaponization of whatever Kanye's going through, I'm not even offended - I don't hate Hitler, our corruption makes him look like an ideallistic child. We don't even love our people or our nation.
We are irredeemably evil for letting it all happen and frankly I'd rather be speaking German if it meant averting this Weimar 2.0 bullshit.
And my God, "we'll be labelled evil!" is the most pansy shit I have ever heard in my life. Egads! W-we'll be so uncomfortable!
Kanye West is clearly going to be used as the battering ram to paint the entire populist right, all Christians and also anyone right of center as irredeemably evil.
Where can I buy that time machine of yours?
Livin' in the 21st century, doin' somethin' mean to it
His power level is going off the charts!
Looks like "Weiner" got served. He's really getting roasted on this one.
Oy vey, why are you sweating Dr. Peterson? A coward to your last whimper I see.
Kim Jung Gi was universally respected, I respected him and I am a professed racist, and while personally I think this was an unconsentual encroachment despite being well-meaning - it wasn't racist. Shouldn't even have to say it and it really cheapens the other side of the argument to say so. I'll call him "Kim Jung Gook" all day to poke fun at team yellow, but at the end of the day he had something to give everyone and it would never occur to me to try and steal his shit - if you aren't trying to match his tenacity you're doing it wrong. He was like a shovelhead version of Forrest Gump, except with drawing. If you truly represent your race, you'd aim to exceed him.
On a sidenote his style wasn't even close to being emulated. KJG drew with a particular autistic fixation on complex scenery with fisheye lens, which seems to throw a wrench in the machine and makes it produce more dogshit than usual. Dude was something else.
