pro-AI in the sense of "they taught a bread scanning computer to recognize cancer cells" etc etc

against AI in the sense of "we stole artwork from hundreds to thousands of artists, didn't credit them and didn't financially compensate them"

this is how the movie went right

Kronk: By whom, though? I might be your classic "hunk" body type, but I'm not exactly a top. I have a couple exes I could call that might be his type. Do you want someone who would take him out for dinner first, or just...

Yzma: ... I WANT you to KILL him!

My submission for ArtOrderโ€™s Tiny Dragons project! This was made with my usual mess of watercolor, ink, and colored pencil on 8x8โ€ณ hotpress watercolor paperโ€ฆthis time I really tried to pin down the value structure of the whole piece, and Iโ€™m feeling good about that aspect of it. :Dย

Wow thereโ€™s some fucking bullshit going on in the replies here. Moderate your fucking spaces on the internet, kick racists and other bad actors to the kerb or you risk losing everyone else. This guy has the right of it (scroll up to top).

Quit thinking you need to be fair to unfair voices

For anyone who canโ€™t/wonโ€™t read that twitter thread, itโ€™s by Michael B. Tager (@IamRageSparkle) and it says:ย 

I was at a shitty crustpunk bar once getting an after-work beer. One of those shitholes where the bartenders clearly hate you. So the bartender and I were ignoring one another when someone sits next to me and he immediately says, โ€œno. get out.โ€

And the dude next to me says, โ€œhey iโ€™m not doing anything, iโ€™m a paying customer.โ€ and the bartender reaches under the counter for a bat or something and says, โ€œout. now.โ€ and the dude leaves, kind of yelling. And he was dressed in a punk uniform, I noticed

Anyway, I asked what that was about and the bartender was like, โ€œyou didnโ€™t see his vest but it was all nazi shit. Iron crosses and stuff. You get to recognize them.โ€ And i was like, ohok and he continues.

โ€œyou have to nip it in the bud immediately. These guys come in and itโ€™s always a nice, polite one. And you serve them because you donโ€™t want to cause a scene. And then they become a regular and after awhile they bring a friend. And that dude is cool too.

And then THEY bring friends and the friends bring friends and they stop being cool and then you realize, oh shit, this is a Nazi bar now. And itโ€™s too late because theyโ€™re entrenched and if you try to kick them out, they cause a PROBLEM. So you have to shut them down.

And i was like, โ€˜oh damn.โ€™ and he said โ€œyeah, you have to ignore their reasonable arguments because their end goal is to be terrible, awful people.โ€ And then he went back to ignoring me. But I havenโ€™t forgotten that at all.

[ID: Screenshot of a tweet from @/AmazonChique that reads โ€˜Pathfinder FB fan group banned all racist members. The next week, they saw a drop in harassing & threatening posts of ALL kinds. From the mod: โ€œI encourage every community to quit thinking you need to be fair to unfair voices. Get the rot out and youโ€™ll have a healthier communityโ€ End ID]

Tolerance is not a moral absolute; it is a peace treaty And peace treaties are not unilateral. They have obligations running in both directions.

You are not bound to tolerate people who have a stated intent to not tolerate you. Nor should you tolerate people who have a stated intent to not tolerate people who are tolerating you.
