I asked DALL-E for "A shitpost that could be found on the new zealand subreddit", and this is what it gave me. It's pretty spot on.

The poor spelling is commentary on the state of literacy in NZ, especially following COVID where school kids have missed out on a lot of learning.

"it be fint" refers to how we tend to think "it will be fine" or "she'll be right", but the "fine" has been adjusted to fine't as in it's a contraction if "fine, not" showing how it won't actually be fine. This contracting is further misspelt due to the above literacy commentary.

It's typed not hand written to show how the world has moved increasingly online. The handwritten part at the bottom repeats parts higher up to show that people are becoming less creative.

The fish represents our waterways, and the fish is having trouble reading the text because of the poor state of the waterways causing it to be in poor health.

The fish is orange, like the Orange Guy from the voting ads, and has it's eyes wide open - this shows how the younger generation are "woke" to social and environmental injustice and willing to challenge the status quo.

The lines are all horizontal showing the passage of time, but they never meet showing the generational divide and how values from different generations don't converge.

The coloured squares in the corner represent the range of opinions that divide us despite them being close to each other.

For better or worse, I wrote that. It's not generated by ChatGPT or copied from Time Cube, despite similarities.

It's my first time shitposting. I don't know what I'm doing.

This is the most thoroughly reasoned and articulated shitpost I've ever seen. It's unprecedented.

If you don't regret it, it's not a shitpost
