The AI art sperging is very strange to me. Digital art has been a thing since the 2000s, and I guarantee many of the artists who have had their jimmies rustled use some sort of art program that helps them with line work, layering, etc. Mild PL, but I’m a hobby artist, I do everything from sketching, to line work, to coloring by hand. I’ve always felt that, while digital coloring can be beautiful, it doesn’t help you improve as much as physical media can. Even if you’re drawing same face anime, the use of markers and/or pencils makes your work so much more interesting than the countless digital pieces dumped onto DA or Pixiv. You really have to put in the effort to be unique with color theory and stylization if you’re going to go digital, but if you do, an AI isn’t going to be able to replicate your unique style anyway.

The fact that Reddit and Twitter are so adamantly opposed to AI art tells me that something else is going on. Because no one gave a shit about championing the hundreds of thousands of tiny indie artists until AI art became a talking point.

Even Twitter is openly talking about spike proteins but Reddit mods are still convinced they can just make this all go away by nuking threads. Talk about delusional.

Hey I generally agree. If a country has no plan whatsoever for what immigrants are going to bring to the country and they can't support themselves, maybe they should stay where they are.

Either you can have open borders and as little welfare as possible, or you can have a welfare state and carefully guard citizenship, so benefits aren’t served up to those who didn’t pay in to them.

It’s not really rocket science, it’s economics 101.

Reddittards want to live in a world where they get all the benefits, pay as little as possible (“billionaires Hurr durr!”) and get to score soc.just brownie points by talking about how “diversity makes us stronger!”

Or you can get the absolute worst of both worlds, and import every comer, even those actively hostile to the host country, then shove them into ghettos like sardines, give them enough gibs to subsist, and then be amazed when they riot constantly (France). Or whatever the fuck crazy shit Germany is doing.

You want to know how we managed this? No fucking immigrants. You’d better be born in the country to Libyan parents, oh you aren’t? Well fuck off we’re full. Setting naturalization law to require massive amounts of time in county (10+ years), requiring investment, or forcing one to renounce previous citizenship helps weed out the undesirables. Of course you can’t have anything nice these days, but I digress.

The demographics spergery is a cope. Populations go through natural ebbs and flows. People who have foresight have less kids in densely populated areas, older generations die off, more resources are available, guess what? Population goes up again. You know what’s definitely not going to help? Throwing millions of third worlders who breed like flies into a first world country and crossing you fingers. RIP Canada.

January 6th is annoying and has been talked to death but since it’s the anniversary of the 9/11 and the holocaust all rolled into one here is Reddit discussing it

I’m MATI about jan6 but I won’t sperg too much since the topic has been talked to death but it perfectly encapsulates the left’s hypocrisy and blatant anti Americanism.
 
Don't worry so much all the time. Just relax, have fun, and enjoy watching the fight.

My sibling Bear, (34NB) and I (32F) have never really gotten along. Bear, has always been very abusive towards me. They constantly bullied me throughout my childhood, and pretty much ruined every milestone I've ever had.
As much I as have limited contact with Bear, we still occasionally have to interact at family events where my parents are involved. Unfortunately, every time I see Bear, they keep calling me by a nickname which I absolutely hate. To an outsider, the nickname in question isn't too egregious, but it is one that Bear has used when bullying and belittling me in the past, and I absolutely hate it. My stomach turns every time I hear it.
I have told Bear repeatedly not to call me by that name. I have even made a point of saying that it's not a joke, I hate the name, and to please respect my decision and call me by my real name. Bear tends to just laugh it off, and says because they are my older sibling, they can call me whatever they want.
I'm not exaggerating the very visceral reaction I have to this nickname. So since talking to Bear clearly doesn't work, I've thought about calling them by their deadname to prove a point. Bear changed their name about 6 years ago, and I've always made sure to respect that. But I'm really mad that I'm not getting that same respect. And I also know the connection between a name and a transition of gender identity is very important and sensitive, so I worry it might be going too far.
So I throw it out there for you guys. WIBTA if I deadname Bear to make a point, in an effort to get Bear to call me by my proper name?
Edit: Okay guys, I'm not completely far gone. In case I didn't make it clear, Bear is non-binary and goes by they/them. I'm seeing some comments misgendering them, so I thought I'd put that out there.
Edit 2: TW: Abuse, Sexual abuse
Mentioning because some people figured it was relevant. Bear used to physically and sexually abuse me, and would use the nickname during and after the assaults. The reason I haven't gone full NC is because I've never told my parents. The only times I see Bear are when my parents have invited us both for a visit. Luckily, these visits are few and far between, but being around Bear messes with my head, and the nickname makes it worse.

OP has deleted her account. Bets on whether "Bear" is a hulking male feminist hiding his perversion behind "NB" or a polymorphously perverse bulldyke?

Ah yes, whenever you're hit with genuine criticism by a large amount of people just claim that someone sent you "death threats" and then retreat from social media in shame. Works for Destiny 2 devs.

You aren't thinking outside the box and act like it's only immigrants that are the problem.

Being poor, like being trans, is a lifestyle choice.

Deport the poor. It's insane not to have citizenship tied into yearly means testing.

And then, to fill in the peon jobs, import guest laborers.

Literally every problem is fixed.

Thanks for joining my meth fueled TedTalk.

In practice this translates
>poor people, who belong to the country, are causing problems
into
>poor people, who have no loyalty to the country, are causing problems

It's a very globalist way of thinking, to just replace a population using people from overseas.

Exactly. As soon as the workers get out of line, you deport them. Easy, peasy, lemon squeezy.
