"you people"?
if you don't want me to block you, you better edit that out. am not here for you or anybody to disrespect me like that.
@blogdiva @Invector07 I know, right? "You people"... "You're so brainwhashed"... The guy known as "Invector07" with zero followers comes here to tell "us people" how we should think. The Invector of free thinking. Laughable.
-
@Invector07 @blogdiva Blah blah blah, "you brainwashed" blah blah blah... what do you think this is? Seventh grade? The Boy Scouts of "I am smarter than you"? Who are you to call people who say we should always fight against racism names? Grow up.
@maniandthenonos @blogdiva See, this is exactly what I mean. You're not different than those on the far right who don't listen to anything that is told to them. You both are completely lost causes and I don't see how you think you're any different from each other. Please, just read and think about what was said. It's not that difficult.

@blogdiva @maniandthenonos I did not say a single thing to offend you. I literally said nothing. You are just trying to be offended at this point. What I said was a little Disorganized because I happen to be quite disorgsnized with my thoughts, but I think it made sense enough for you to know what it meant. I would love to know why you don't like what I said.

@Invector07 @blogdiva I know one thing. I don't need to listen to you, 'Invector07". Go away, clanker. Blocked.

whomever is doing this knows Black people are THE Culture; so how swell it is to make money off Black culture without Black people?
and don't get me started with the fact that automata are proxies for SLAVES.
don't hesitate to call out Alphabet/Google/Youtube for making money off Black digital slaves.
this isn't progress. this is still baldfaced racism.
This is like the YouTube trend of AI generated black female crafts people it’s just AI slop to sell goods manufactured and Asian sweat shops as handicrafts you know by people who can’t tell that something has been mass produced

@blogdiva I can’t hate this enough. This is what I reserve the word hate for truly. Like a perversion of everything these artist ever did. Soulless!

"...raising the question of where people think beauty and art lives..."
Beauty and art live in people.
There is no art and beauty in stochastic errorist machines.
Unless it's all the stolen art and beauty that was funnelled into their grinders to make slop.
Soul music? Stole music.

@blogdiva It's the worst thing to happen to Black music since the cover records of the 1950s.

@blogdiva Okay, I won't. Yeah, that was rude. Sorry. Now, do you want to discuss? Please be open-minded about this.

@blogdiva Also remember that a lot of the work that is presented to us as AI is extremely dependent on low-wage hard labour by Africans. The most reports I've seen have been about Kenya, but there are probably other countries high on the list as well.

@maniandthenonos @blogdiva Not trying to be mean, but you people will always say we need to fight against it, but you don't actually acknowledge the original problem because you're so brainwashed just like everyone on the left and right at this point in time (we'll, at every point in time actually, but you know). The actual problem is that definition, "race". It only causes problems in itself and it just claims to be classifying people who are different when it just results in violence.
@Invector07 @maniandthenonos @blogdiva
Invector may not have been very tactful but I agree with his point that the issue is having internalized the concept of "race" in humanity as opposed to having a spectrum of melanin concentration and many other spectrums of other variables. Race has become a fixed thing that people defend staunchly.
The real divide between Invector and the other group is one of perspective. Invector is idealist and mistaking the end goal with the struggle to get there. -

@Invector07 @maniandthenonos @blogdiva
The struggle on a daily basis is real and needs to be acknowledged but you cant lose the ideal in the process otherwise it becomes a vain battle that keeps going in circles.

@blogdiva I think it is also authoritarianism.
The unit of action in that state of mind is ”joy of obedience”, or something. Which is implicit in racism always.
Fpr the authoritarian, the natural order of things is that something ”with more power”, like an AI model, should joyously be celebrated as a good thing, and we should submit because of that power.
It’s a simple mindset, yet it guides so many because evolution preferred survival over justice, so scared people are more.
