I'd be willing to be that if there were an existential military threat, the zoomers would indeed find it in them to storm the beaches of Normandy.

I hope they storm the metaphorical beaches of climate change and economic inequality

We're definitely not setting them up to be facing it in easy mode that's for sure.

No need to storm the beaches of Normandy we have the channel tunnel now. You can take a train, it's much easier.

I don't paint but, the imagery of zoomers "storming the beaches of economic inequality" gives me inspirational energy I haven't had in a while. Thank you.

Love that the central boat is going the wrong way

Well someone has to fight on the side of inequality. And it won't be the rich ones.

The centrists up to their usual shenanigans

[–] [email protected] 5 points 8 months ago

They're just running in reverse and don't know how all the other boats got ahead of them.

Nah fam ,no shade but, I mean like real art.

I'm realizing that there is no way we are getting the genie back in the bottle on generative art.... But you can also definitely tell the difference between when it's just pure generated vs being used to help develop an art piece but a fair amount of work still went into it to fixing it up and styling the composition.

It's not much but I think it's still a place to draw the line while trying to support actual artists and maybe push those that want to generate to still put effort in past rolling the dice a bunch.

They absolutely would not storm any beach. They'd meme the shit out of them though.
