I think the message would be stronger without the ai art

[–] octopus_ink@slrpnk.net 27 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Yeah, like most such memes I stole it from another post, and as I was looking at it after submitting it hit me that it had that look. Sincerely sorry.

[–] Emi@ani.social 25 points 1 week ago (2 children)

It's getting better which is scary. Lately it's harder for me to tell if it's ai. There are still things by which you can tell but it's getting harder to spot.

[–] tkk13909@sopuli.xyz 16 points 1 week ago

The main giveaways for me are the fact that the sheriff isn't actually grabbing the man, just holding his fist in front of him and the SS emblem being completely smudged despite being a very easy thing to draw.

[–] Sanctus@lemmy.world 12 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (1 children)

AI has this look to it. The text is a dead giveaway. Its a mash of cartoon style that creates this unrecognizable yet familiar facsimile. That, and the details. Details are still smudged.

[–] orbituary@lemmy.dbzer0.com 9 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

For me it's the line weight and the dead-eyed expressions.

[–] KazuchijouNo@lemy.lol 24 points 1 week ago

What! How could you tell!?? /s

lol the American west guys were not just like “I’m just following orders” they were like “lets murder all these native people it’s awesome.” Let’s not whitewash that shitty part of our history, fellow whites.

[–] PineRune@lemmy.world 32 points 1 week ago (1 children)

The Nazis and ICE were and are the same way, they just try to paint it in a different picture to not look like a bad guy.

[–] Cruxifux@feddit.nl 12 points 1 week ago

Ok, very fair point.

[–] stebo02@lemmy.dbzer0.com 20 points 1 week ago

yea the whole point is that "just following orders" is an excuse while they know damn well they're complying to a fascist regime

[–] psx_crab@lemmy.zip 13 points 1 week ago

I think that's the point, it's not "just follow order", they're okay with it. It's the banality of evil.

[–] juliebean@lemm.ee 6 points 1 week ago

same for the others honestly. 'i was just following orders' is just what one says when you get called out for doing heinous shit so you can pass the buck to someone else in your organization.

[–] jaybone@lemmy.zip 6 points 1 week ago

It’s not just white people who were “just following orders”

None of them are just following orders. All of them take great enjoyment in what they do.

[–] zymagoras777@lemm.ee 7 points 1 week ago (2 children)

Exactly, even in nazi Germany soldiers could refuse to kill civilians without very harsh consequences. Those who did, enjoyed doing it.

Tell that to my dead great uncle. Who was a conscript (german soldier), shot and killed on a train transporting people to concentration camps.

[–] interdimensionalmeme@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 week ago

Permission to be bad seduces most people

[–] REDACTED@infosec.pub 27 points 1 week ago

Interesting how the AI flop made the first guy hold his hair

[–] Bgugi@lemmy.world 19 points 1 week ago

This is not a shitpost.

[–] Duamerthrax@lemmy.world 12 points 1 week ago

No one joins ICE to be a good person.

[–] mkwt@lemmy.world 12 points 1 week ago

In the 1830s they were doing that shit in the southeast: Georgia, Carolinas, Alabama, and so on. They didn't really get going clearing the "west" until after the war and into the twentieth century. Geronimo surrendered for the last time in the 1880s, and he died in 1909 as a POW at Ft. Sill. Oklahoma had gained statehood only two years before, in 1907.

[–] Acinonyx@lemmy.sdf.org 6 points 1 week ago

you forgot to add the chinese concentration camps to your AI slop image

[–] peteyestee@feddit.org 4 points 1 week ago

Why are they all hot?

[–] MajesticElevator@lemmy.zip 3 points 1 week ago (3 children)

Not sure comparing genocides with deportation is adequate. The two first were a lot worse.

[–] NastyNative@mander.xyz 1 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Also where is the poster depicting Israeli soldiers killing Palestinian children?

[–] MajesticElevator@lemmy.zip 2 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

Now this is a genocide, or at least comes closer to the other two

[–] octopus_ink@slrpnk.net -1 points 1 week ago (1 children)

If you don't recognize that we're just at the start, sure.

[–] MajesticElevator@lemmy.zip 2 points 1 week ago (2 children)

I don't think it's going to happen. The USA is crazy right now, but not this much.

[–] octopus_ink@slrpnk.net 1 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (1 children)

If it doesn't happen it's because we stopped it, not because it wasn't going to.

[–] MajesticElevator@lemmy.zip 0 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (1 children)

You realize this can apply to basically any subject, without proof?

Just go back to the original subject anyways. You can't compare subjects by treating them as equal because of what you think it will be.

[–] octopus_ink@slrpnk.net 2 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

OK.

Have been told for about a decade now that we're overreacting about Trump and meanwhile he's doing exactly what has been predicted, exactly what he's said he'll do.

Folks acting like this is all normal are as big a problem as the magas. It's not. We're 1930s Germany, LATE 1930s Germany.

Generative AI is the tool of the enemy, we don't need it.

Hmmm that refreshing smell of holocaust trivialization in the morning...

[–] flango@lemmy.eco.br 3 points 1 week ago

Nop, it just smells like you are wrong.

As Whitman shows, the Nuremberg Laws were crafted in an atmosphere of considerable attention to the precedents American race laws had to offer. German praise for American practices, already found in Hitler’s Mein Kampf, was continuous throughout the early 1930s, and the most radical Nazi lawyers were eager advocates of the use of American models. But while Jim Crow segregation was one aspect of American law that appealed to Nazi radicals, it was not the most consequential one. Rather, both American citizenship and antimiscegenation laws proved directly relevant to the two principal Nuremberg Laws—the Citizenship Law and the Blood Law. Whitman looks at the ultimate, ugly irony that when Nazis rejected American practices, it was sometimes not because they found them too enlightened, but too harsh.
