50501 is not an org to be trusted. It’s an arm of the establishment trying to brand itself as an activist group, and there’s tons of problematic reports coming out from their behavior already.
Fuck AI
A great many leftist artists who are workers themselves and helped others throughout the years are heartbroken and disappointed to see things like this, but I guess this instance cares less about respecting their wishes than they do about making crappy AI posters.
The 50501 slop movement has arrived.
I don’t think its a good idea to discredit an entire movement because one person posted an ai meme on it.
are you an Irrelevant Elephant, an Elephant of Ire, or an Infrared Elephant?
yes.
Actual Answer
Irelevant Elephant, but irrelephant is taken on almost every other site. The typo makes it unqiue.
AI slop with reddit watermark. Who the fuck upvotes this shit?
Why are some of the bills labeled 0?
I can kinda understand deleting my first response to this comment, but why delete cornshark’s comment asking about the funny looking dollar signs?
Because it’s AI slop
AI slop
Love that reddit watermark.
Be best OP
Eh that’s all on the mirror comm it’s cross posted from
I will continue to undiscriminatingly block accounts posting AI slop
there’s one African immigrant that should be blamed.
What if they also bring immigrants so that there are immigrants to blame?
Should we remember that, too?
To be incredibly pedantic (and I love being pedantic), this means that billionaires specifically are the problem, right?
What about medium/large business owners who are far from being billionaires, or small business owners who are trying to get their business off the ground, are they not also problematic given how they still exploit workers to the same degree (or even to a larger degree like small businesses, given how they enjoy a lot of discriminatory legal exemptions worldwide and have to cut labour costs in order to compete better) and are more likely than not to support reactionary rhetoric that divides the working classes further due to their class position?
If only there was a word to encompass all of them
Capitalism? Sure billionaires aren’t the only problem, but in a plutocracy they are a good place to start.
I like calling people by their actions instead of any label. In this situation I would call them Wealth Hoarders. I think that covers the many labels of the rich on varying scales of wealth ownership without singling out any specific group.
I find the over use of labels to be a tool for distraction. It’s easy to argue the definition of a label and ignore the actions that are actually happening. Describing a person’s action leaves less room for debate and returns the focus back on shitty, unacceptable and unwanted behaviour.
As a nice bonus, describing shitty peoples actions and behaviours to them makes them visibly uncomfortable. At least from my experiences.
“Wealth Hoarder” isn’t the best term, given how it could also include decently affluent working class people who have a decent amount of savings. They technically hoard wealth for themselves albeit to a lesser extent, but are these people problematic/part of the problem?
Also, it was a rhetorical question, the answer is bourgeoisie (or capitalists if you don’t want to use 19th century English). It’s definition literally is the employers and people who own and run companies/factories, and rentiers who live off of rent (so landlords). Instead of describing an action, it does something better and describes their material position, what they have.
I personally don’t see any reason to spend time defining labels. The people causing harm don’t even care about the definitions of the labels they use. It’s their actions which are causing harm and and our time is better spent addressing their actions.
If we aren’t spending our time addressing their actions then we are being distracted from the harm they are causing. That benefits and enables their harmful actions while doing nothing positive for us who want a liveable future.
That’s not actually true at all.
They pour all this contrived hatred on poor immigrants because immigrant labour is the cheapest - and most expendable - labour around. And by assigning blame onto poor immigrants they manufacture the necessary consent to sicc more and more state violence onto poor immigrants in order to keep this source of labour as cheap - and thoroughly terrorised - as possible.
That’s why. It’s so damn basic you can find all of it in the second book of the Old Testament.
A mod of [email protected] is posting AI slopaganda
We can start by not using their slop generators.
No war but class war. All struggle is class struggle. Everything else is FUD and obfuscation.
