Apt metaphor of our times.
Greenwashing, social media highlight reels, worship of the affluent, grind culture, etc.
Putting a fake, stepford face to obfuscate the horrors we refuse to address, using unethical(theft) technology being shoved down our throats for profit no less.
Gotta add a splash of sex. Unbutton a couple more on that shirt and enhance the pic with tasteful cleavage, so we can ignore the surroundings.
Man this is creepy
I’m pretty sure this is art because I’m having a strong emotional reaction.
This is uncomfortably dark, at a time when unrelenting misery is a way of life
Go read The Grapes of Wrath and The Concrete Jungle. Get back to me on today’s unrelenting misery.
One kind of misery does not negate the existence of other kinds of misery. The pain of living through the Great Depression is different from the pain of seeing reality eroded away into propaganda for the highest bidders, but it doesn’t mean we shouldn’t be fighting to end misery.
Reality has always been propaganda designed to serve the highest bidders. It’s just more obvious now because they’re changing the propaganda more often.
Jotting that down
Nothing can be bad because it used to be worse
America is prone to many different flavours of misery.
My favorite is butter pecan.
Whitewashing old photos with AI. Thanks. I’ll just add this to the heap of things to worry about as I get older.
How is it whitewashing when the woman was white to begin with?
EDIT: Misunderstood the term, though it was being used in a new context. I’m leaving my idiot comment for all to see.
History fixed. Move along.
I don’t know whether to feel angry or sad looking at this but it definitely makes me feel uncomfortable and gross that’s for sure. It’s like someone making you your favorite dish for dinner and then just covering it in jello.
I’m gonna be the twat and say it, I’d knock the dust off that bowl.
Someone please tell me this is satirical
It’s making fun of gamers. “Putting females in a game that aren’t huge breasted fan service is woke”.
"Putting
females in a game that aren’t huge breasted fan serviceanyone that isn’t a hot white straight female or masculine straight male in a game is woke”It’s so fucking disgusting reading comments in Steam “discussions” lately…
:(
I think it is. I still don’t want to see it.
