Lover of liberty, defender of the 2nd, and stubborn as hell. USN veteran. Unapologetically pro-Israel.

I love how right-wingers have mystified chatbots to such a weird degree of spectacle. To some it's the Library of Alexandria, to others it's an actual religious messiah, and the rest think it's a communist conspiracy. That recent RollingStone article is the most depraved thing I've read since the first week Qanon evolved on reddit: https://www.rollingstone.com/culture/culture-features/ai-spiritual-delusions-destroying-human-relationships-1235330175/

edit: Not to mention its cultural role for them. It has replaced right-wing art and they believe it's the structural future of creativity. They can't distinguish it from reality when it hallucinates what a star or a hand looks like. The wealthiest person in history used it to generate a nonsense logo for his cybernazi coup to destroy the wealthiest empire in history. It's such a uniquely fascist technology in a way I can't call any other product uniquely fascist.

That Rolling Stone article is horrifying. Would definitely be worth making a separate post for

I thought I originally read it on here but it doesn't seem to come up on our subcommunities. Posted to /c/slop as it's mass psychic slopification.

What right wing art? Dilbert, stone toss and that guy who created Bane?

The Batman character? Or is there another Bane?

Pre-impressionist European patronage, academic, rococo, French art nouveau, advertising and corporate memphis, futurist, surrealist, abstract expressionist, kitsch, hippie and neotraditional movements, the speculative art market and all the postmodernist shit it drove. I'd call right-wing art all the movements and artistic structures which seem to really clash with what we learned from left-modernism and meta-modernism. They've always had an antihumanist and antisocial reaction to art as a genuinely human project anyone can create for everyone's benefit.

Also especially Garfield, like in the old comics where he used to say slurs.
