I’m pretty sure this is art because I’m having a strong emotional reaction.
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.
they can always be whiter
white+
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.
I was just reminded of this starting up the Tomb Raider I-III trilogy.
Just like Looney Tunes, they added a disclaimer; paraphrased “This rerelease depicts certain cultures in a light we do not agree with - we’ve preserved the work to avoid pretending this never happened”
On a more minor note, I’m very sick of the TikTok trend of censoring words like “kill” into “unalive”. It has even made it hard for victims to talk about brutal subjects. It’ll happen to you, you just aren’t allowed to talk about it because that might upset people.
That was done specifically to limit police video distributions, YouTube doesn’t allow references to violence unless a large mainstream news network posts it.
They’re starting to even remove court cases that are on touchy subjects.
Righfully so, there is a lot a domestic violence against butlers in those games.
It is doubleplusungood.

I’ve only seen that on Youtube.
Gotta add a splash of sex. Unbutton a couple more on that shirt and enhance the pic with tasteful cleavage, so we can ignore the surroundings.
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.
Michael!
Am I the only one who would find the woman at the left more attractive?
The right just looks like plastic to me, same with all of these instagram influencer ladies who have more plastic surgeries than I have fingers.
That’s the joke.
This is a parody of twitter posts made by actual “anti DEI/woke” dipshits. The format is identical to their posts “fixing” modern female video game characters that don’t look like sex dolls.
People can look however they would like, whether that’s plastic or dust bowl struggle chic. What’s wrong here is that an unrelated party has decided to change someone’s appearance based on their own preferences.
Maybe it’s because these generations of which I’m a part are struggling financially and will likely end up in the gutter due to crumbling support systems or because we’re staring down the double barrel of the imminent repercussions of ignoring climate change and the reinforcing systemic barriers to overcome it, but I just learned that “dust bowl chic” (and consent, already known) really does it for me.
I think the rules are a little different when you decide to make your appearance the product. Instagram Models or models in general make themselves out to be an ideal and a image for other people, especially children to strive for. That makes criticism of them valid while if they were just going about their day, it wouldn’t be. Doesn’t help that the filters make these images impossible to achieve.
The woman on the left looks strong, determined and capable.
The woman on the right looks disingenuous, fake and somehow predatory.
With the right plastic surgeon you could have more fingers…
Yeah the woman on the right just looks like a psychopath
Fuck is a “woke dei”?
It’s what conservatives say instead of the n-word.
Indeed.
“Woke” originally meant “aware of and well-informed about systemic social issues affecting everyday people”. Conservatives have co-opted this word and use it to describe anything associated with leftism or social liberalism. It is intended to be negative in that context.
“DEI” stands for “diversity, equity, and inclusion”. It refers to policies that intentionally include people of diverse or minority backgrounds in the context of employment or political appointment. Conservatives use it to describe (in their view) hiring practices that select less-qualified candidates of these backgrounds against the favour of those who may be more qualified. In that usage, a “DEI hire” or “diversity hire” is a person hired or appointed solely on the basis of their race, gender, or some other status as a minority even though they are not qualified for the role.
DEI hire is actually supposed to be “if you have a choice between two candidates who are equally qualified, you choose the one which adds diversity to your team”. There’s nothing in DEI hire about choosing the less qualified person. If anything, from what I’ve seen people who are non-white usually have more degrees and qualifications than their white colleagues. I mean, look at Kamala Harris vs. Donald Trump right now…
That’s true in reality, but in the minds of those who use it to diminish people, the implication is that race was the deciding factor - because of course, to them, only whites are competent, so there’s no other reason anyone else could have been chosen.
I was once heard of a team where two equally, incredibly talented candidates were options. One of them had the same name as two other people on the team so they picked the other guy. Can’t have three John’s ya know?
(The name wasn’t John, it was a fairly uncommon name, which made it waaaaay funnier)
In the most technical sense, that was DEI hire.
Conservatives use “woke” to mean the same thing leftists mean when they say “redpilled”: edgy people roleplaying enlightenment instead of actually seeking it.
Diversity, something inclusion I think. Their latest obsession
equality?
Equity
Equine Influenza
edibles
ah yes
Someone please tell me this is satirical
I think it is. I still don’t want to see it.
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 serviceanyone 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 came across a facebook post criticizing the character model of Angela from the new Silent Hill 2 Remake. Thousands of people liked the post which called the model of the remake ugly and less feminine. The character is a teenager and victim of sexual assault…
100%
Man this is creepy
Man, Stalin would have loved this tech… Even with just film, the USSR was able to make some impressive photo edits to remove politicians that Stalin had “purged,” from previous photographs.
Because I guess that means they never existed?
Adobe announced a ‘distraction removal’ Photoshop feature this week at their annual MAX conference. Makes removing people from pictures a one-click operation for anyone: https://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop/using/remove-tool.html
My very first job back in the late 90s after art school involved erasing people out of corporate annual photos using Photoshop.
So no… it’s not just Stalin.
I’m gonna be the twat and say it, I’d knock the dust off that bowl.
History fixed. Move along.
Omg can people start doing this to like, random men? Politicians? Actors? Scientists? Please 😂
