Fuck is a “woke dei”?
It’s what conservatives say instead of the n-word.
Diversity, something inclusion I think. Their latest obsession
equality?
Am I the only one who would find the woman at the left more attractive?
The right just looks like plastic to me, same with all of these instagram influencer ladies who have more plastic surgeries than I have fingers.
That’s the joke.
This is a parody of twitter posts made by actual “anti DEI/woke” dipshits. The format is identical to their posts “fixing” modern female video game characters that don’t look like sex dolls.
People can look however they would like, whether that’s plastic or dust bowl struggle chic. What’s wrong here is that an unrelated party has decided to change someone’s appearance based on their own preferences.
Maybe it’s because these generations of which I’m a part are struggling financially and will likely end up in the gutter due to crumbling support systems or because we’re staring down the double barrel of the imminent repercussions of ignoring climate change and the reinforcing systemic barriers to overcome it, but I just learned that “dust bowl chic” (and consent, already known) really does it for me.
Man, Stalin would have loved this tech… Even with just film, the USSR was able to make some impressive photo edits to remove politicians that Stalin had “purged,” from previous photographs.
Because I guess that means they never existed?
Adobe announced a ‘distraction removal’ Photoshop feature this week at their annual MAX conference. Makes removing people from pictures a one-click operation for anyone: https://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop/using/remove-tool.html
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.
I was just reminded of this starting up the Tomb Raider I-III trilogy.
Just like Looney Tunes, they added a disclaimer; paraphrased “This rerelease depicts certain cultures in a light we do not agree with - we’ve preserved the work to avoid pretending this never happened”
On a more minor note, I’m very sick of the TikTok trend of censoring words like “kill” into “unalive”. It has even made it hard for victims to talk about brutal subjects. It’ll happen to you, you just aren’t allowed to talk about it because that might upset people.
That was done specifically to limit police video distributions, YouTube doesn’t allow references to violence unless a large mainstream news network posts it.
They’re starting to even remove court cases that are on touchy subjects.
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.
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.
There are more human slaves alive on Earth today than at any previous point in history.
I doubt it. The Roman Empire alone at its height had a population of 50-90 million with roughly a quarter of that enslaved.
Even with extremely inclusive definitions of slavery (which are also not included in the classical count) the modern estimates of the total number of slaves is like 40-50 million. It’s too many, obviously, but classical period Europe, Africa, and Asia alone would crush those numbers, and the 'New World" didn’t appear out of nowhere when Columbus stumbled into it.
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
Well I can do all things through Christ, so why don’t you jot that down too
Unappreciated sunny reference?
Then do it. Go fix it with your magic powers.
America is prone to many different flavours of misery.
My favorite is butter pecan.
Man this is creepy
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.
they can always be whiter
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.
Someone please tell me this is satirical
I think it is. I still don’t want to see it.
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 came across a facebook post criticizing the character model of Angela from the new Silent Hill 2 Remake. Thousands of people liked the post which called the model of the remake ugly and less feminine. The character is a teenager and victim of sexual assault…
100%
History fixed. Move along.
I’m gonna be the twat and say it, I’d knock the dust off that bowl.
