LOL, white people keep telling us what they are and what they are about.
“I would rather you vote for what is morally correct,” Davidson said.
“Don’t talk to me about my own morality,” DeLauro shot back.
“Don’t tell your constituents what they can and can’t talk to you about,” replied Rev. Nathan Empsall. “What you are voting for is not moral.”

Ppl genuinely demanding gen X & millennials pretend like we didn’t do HS, college, careers, personal projects and even jokes/memes/reactions without gen ai our whole lives.
When gaslighting reaches a mass scale & has power (billionaires, gov) behind it, it facilitates structural violence actually.

You know, I actually get the point she was trying to make, but coming from someone white who ignores the context of many of have skills we had to develop b/c we were poor, the point sounds like a person that identifies as a leftist but doesn't actually read to understand perspectives not her own.
no great artists have ever struggled, a famous thing about artists that we all know. everyone prior to three years ago lived lives of luxury.
![the stupid 'talent is a gatekeeping mechanism' thread that's going around, three posts reading:
tired of having these arguments so i'm gonna lay out the STARK reality of AI for some of you privileged fucks:
1. "talent" is a gatekeeping mechanism that has created a culture of professionalism that is no less of an ivory tower than academia, a moralized proxy for access to time, training, money.
2. being poor means having to make hard choices like:
[a] drawing something yourself in a way society would call "bad" (i.e. unprofessional)
[b] sacrificing resources you don't have to pay a real artist what they're worth (or learn yourself)
[c] not doing it at all, or
[d] using AI.
“just don’t use AI” is a luxury position. when people moralize choices made under scarcity, they’re pretending the menu is the same for everyone. it fucking isn’t.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:dei7f7zh74xr3hoghei6ke3d/bafkreig5uei5qn5bkwhgniorhoyesfs73ovo76xwfk2yxprmtnbde4cvp4@jpeg)

The laws they use to hurt us, hurt y’all too

I kind of just laugh at white people trying to tell me how 'bad' the world is.
As if Black, Brown and native folks haven't been navigating horror and cruelty most of our lives.
The journey it took for me to get where I am now would break white people.
And my experience, by far, is not the worst.

It's worth noting that most privileged group in the US, white folks, are also the group that engages in doom and gloom content the most.
As bad as the right now is, it was even worst not that long ago.
What they view as 'crisis' is a normal day to us.
They just don't want to fight back

The web always adapts and AI development is simply unsustainable so it will collapse sooner rather than later.
