Like it’s this amazing tool that can literally whip believable looking people from a soup of words but your average goon cave troll focuses on, “elf, boobs, BIG BOOBS, glossy, plastic look, anime, ANIME STYLE, cinematic, marvel, DCU, dead eyes, gaudy colors, vaporwave” and calls it a day.
I was playing around with some face styles and prompting in stuff like people from different ethnicities and countries and it was spitting back some really good portraits. Then I went and looked in the gallery and it was deviantart tier slop. Not to mention people mistaking the chat section for a prompt and putting in literal cp :yea: I feel icky now.
I’m increasingly getting to the point of not being able to not judge people for so enthusiastically embracing the dystopian nightmare of modern capitalism. Yes, I know, material conditions, nobody is immune to propaganda, yeah, yeah. But there’s not being immune and then there’s breaking into the virology lab and licking the petri dishes. People in the past lived in horrible times and were exposed to propaganda but they seemed to have the will to at least DO FUCKING SOMETHING! And those people were often illiterate peasants. Now capitalist society is dabbing on us all and so many people are like “thank you sir may I have another!”
A century of propaganda spreading the cult of the individual, 24/7 360 degree marketing demanding we consoom, with a dash of red scare is a hell of a drug
