dank memes

Rules:

  1. All posts must be memes and follow a general meme setup.

  2. No unedited webcomics.

  3. Someone saying something funny or cringe on twitter/tumblr/reddit/etc. is not a meme. Post that stuff in /c/slop

  4. Va*sh posting is haram and will be removed.

  5. Follow the code of conduct.

  6. Tag OC at the end of your title and we'll probably pin it for a while if we see it.

  7. Recent reposts might be removed.

  8. Tagging OC with the hexbear watermark is praxis.

  9. No anti-natalism memes. See: Eco-fascism Primer

I’m not trying to be rude when I say I honestly do not get how the pic is stomach turning or what AI has to do with it.

Can you [speaking generally here] not find an image of chinese people flipping the bird? Or do you think that this was the only way to express this sentiment?

It's not even a good machine generated image; you have a ghost hand directly in the center of the image and all the human figures are in an uncanny valley of what a white person thinks chinese people generally look like. This means that you didn't even care to re-generate the image or go through any sort of QC process. If you want to use machine generated images why not take a page out of the Iran playbook and use it to generate something interesting and over the top instead of creating a facsimile of a human photograph that looks like shit. Saying that memes look like shit and just focus on the message is a terrible attitude to have (not to mention that I can't even read the text on the image, there is no message for me)

You have a program that is capable of generating the most elaborate, jaw dropping images at record pace and you use it in the most boring way. It's lazy and pathetic.

My but you are full of demands and Assumptions. I didn't post that, nor did op. But keep missing and destracting from the point, which is exactly what the CIA wants and has trained minions of free operatives to do the point is, the United States, like Israel, destabilizes and overthrows countries then lies about it using gaslighting and projection, DARVO. In common parlance, throwing bombs and hiding their hands. Operation Condor. Operation Gladio. Etc, etc, etc
