Man this is creepy

Apt metaphor of our times.

Greenwashing, social media highlight reels, worship of the affluent, grind culture, etc.

Putting a fake, stepford face to obfuscate the horrors we refuse to address, using unethical(theft) technology being shoved down our throats for profit no less.

History fixed. Move along.

I'm pretty sure this is art because I'm having a strong emotional reaction.

This is uncomfortably dark, at a time when unrelenting misery is a way of life

I'm gonna be the twat and say it, I'd knock the dust off that bowl.

Whitewashing old photos with AI. Thanks. I'll just add this to the heap of things to worry about as I get older.

How is it whitewashing when the woman was white to begin with?

EDIT: Misunderstood the term, though it was being used in a new context. I'm leaving my idiot comment for all to see.

I don't know whether to feel angry or sad looking at this but it definitely makes me feel uncomfortable and gross that's for sure. It's like someone making you your favorite dish for dinner and then just covering it in jello.

Someone please tell me this is satirical

It's making fun of gamers. "Putting females in a game that aren't huge breasted fan service is woke".

"Putting ~~females in a game that aren’t huge breasted fan service~~ anyone that isn't a hot white straight female or masculine straight male in a game is woke”

It's so fucking disgusting reading comments in Steam "discussions" lately...

:(

I think it is. I still don’t want to see it.
