What if my religion says you shouldn't go around fuckin' bears tho?

Then would you give up your bear-fuckin'?

"The future liberals want"

I don't disagree that it feels way different, and honestly I'm still not sure if it's going to be a good thing or a bad thing.

But are the words you and I are writing a lesser form of communication just because we're tapping a screen or typing on a keyboard rather than writing them out by hand?

Granted, it's still not the same thing. These are my words being arranged to my liking, but will we one day look at AI art as an extension of our hand the way that a keyboard is?

Is the world a better place because the commodification of art is monopolized by AI, or will art be better for the fact that it's only practiced for the love of art and more bespoke purposes?

This subject is super complex and philosophical and definitely something I hope I live long enough to see the resolution to, some day.

I imagine a better analogy would be scribes talking about the printing press.

Prior to the invention of the printing press, the endeavor of mass creation of copies of a book could employ dozens of highly trained, highly skilled workers whose recreations were frequently seen as an artistic endeavor as much as a literary one. When the printing press was introduced and didn't carry illustrations in the margins or nice little flourishes on some of the letters, the works were considered "soulless" and "without character"

A human can say that they were influenced by XYZ but they might not be crediting all of the instructors they had, or all the art books they read, all the stepping stones that got them to the point of being able to produce a work that has an identifiable influence. Then consider the people who influenced the person they're citing as an influence, and so on and so on. I don't know that the AI can tell you where every flourish comes from, but the person using it as a tool certainly could tell you what tags they used, which often include "in the style of "

I think you're intentionally missing the point. Yeah, condoms are fine. The government mandating when you can and cannot use condoms in order to enforce an arbitrary population number is not as fine.

Then why even have marriage? What a stupid concept.

People change, people hide shit. The person you know the absolute best is someone that you don't know everything about. If someone puts on airs until the wedding and then reveals themselves to be a piece of shit, you should just be stuck with them for life because you signed some stupid paper?

I'd rather abolish the concept of marriage entirely than have to live in some stupid hellhole that follows the rules you think should apply to marriage.

Let's not forget that multiple accusers up and fucking died while waiting for their day in court, also.

Kinda hard to provide testimony that could have been compelling for the court when a number of key witnesses don't survive the trial.

She's obviously been persecuted like them, right?

They should be so lucky. Nobody in all of humanity's long history has been persecuted the way the modern conservative American has been.

And privateering is piracy when you have the consent of a government to attack ships belonging to another government

I don't want you to feel like you're being dogpiled, cause I don't think anyone here is like, upset with you.

But Taylor Swift fans are like, the exact opposite kind of crowd for that type of message. You wanna find things you have in common with her, you go right ahead, no harm done at all. But Swifties react irrationally to anything they'd perceive as an attack on her. You just picked the wrong audience, is all.

Congratulations! I wish you a speedy recovery
