If you know the post is AI and you don’t delete the post, that is tacit endorsement of using AI as a propaganda tool. You seem unbothered by that.

I do ignore the message if the medium is artificial. I won’t bother to read the image’s text or attempt to process the intent if I know the delivery is not genuine. I’m not going to waste my time or sully my brain by valuing and evaluating something posing as human expression.

You want me on your team? Don’t send a robo singing telegram as a recruiting tool. Convey your message like we’re humans instead of speaking through a fundamentally false impersonator. I don’t ask you to be a perfect human — I ask that you and your messages are genuine if you want me to listen. Trickery isn’t used to gain allies; it’s used to exploit the unwitting.

That good ol' purity spiral.

A message isn't a genuine message, because the choice of instrument to prepare it is disliked. Even if the text is the same, it's the product of a "false impersonator" & "trickery".

Genetic fallacy & non sequitur.

Edit: specifically, style over substance.

Alright now get back to the drawing board, and don't come back until you have a meme you made in Krita

Nah, didn't you read?

Some royal majesties

ignore the message if the medium is artificial

and will not have their attention sullied with

something posing as human expression

Anything digital, electronic, or mechanical is artificial. They want "genuine" human expression, and the printing press is impersonal, mass-produced schlock.

Gotta go full quill & parchment on this, hand delivered.

You're absolutely right: reed stylus & clay tablet all the way. Gotta brush up on that Sumerian to leave something for archeologists to unearth 1000s of years from now, so they too will know of our pragmatism in building stronger movements.
