It's not just them. A lot of us don't like it. The rules don't exist to appease everyone but to make a "good" community, whatever that means in the eyes of the moderators. So it's a valid suggestion.
No it's absolutely not.
They can use it and talk about it somewhere else.
Because it's fucking everywhere and it's fucking infuriating and it's fucking dogshit. Corporations are stealing from creators and publishers, driving up costs of electricity, water, and electronic hardware across the board, unleashing DDoS attacks on the entire internet, creating an economic bubble the size of which the world has never seen, and inevitably going to lead to the destruction of the global economy, all in the pursuit of what? Spreading disinformation and sexual abuse? The damage AI is unleashing on the world cannot be overstated...
The absolute least we can do is stop perpetuating it on our little space on the internet.
