Looking at this image, every child could easily point out who's evil here. Do they not see it?

[-] Gradually_Adjusting@lemmy.world 106 points 2 months ago

They see it and they like it.

They are evil. You don't get horns and cool red eyes when you turn evil. Mostly you stay the same!

Fun thing I've noticed, evil people even seem to live longer. They don't stress about it when others suffer, they laugh. And laughter... Is the best medicine.

[-] flightyhobler@lemmy.world 22 points 2 months ago

Dunno man. There's a reason why the best comedians are left leaning.

[-] Gradually_Adjusting@lemmy.world 41 points 2 months ago

The best comedians have an excess of empathy. The best conservatives barely have any.

[-] flightyhobler@lemmy.world 17 points 2 months ago

Also musicians and artists in general.

The fascists don't care. They will happily rub it into your face how much they can do something you cannot. It's a feature of fascism, not a bug.

A Hungarian fascist told me how all gay people will be pedophiles in his eyes no matter what, while he himself groomed his wife from the age of 16.

I prefer the original artist's work

I saved you a click. I didn't believe this post was real and I went to find it on X. It's real and I'm sad for all Americans.

[-] massive_bereavement@fedia.io 39 points 2 months ago

Wait what?

I am now sure were living in some mickeymouse simulation.

My cousin has convinced me that we all died from Covid and this is hell

[-] jaschen@lemm.ee 16 points 2 months ago

I would avoid going to the Whitehouse Twitter page. The entire thing is just a bunch of sound bites from Fox news.

[-] makyo@lemmy.world 31 points 2 months ago

Seriously what kind of soulless creep goes for this shit, not to mention thinks it's fun to post? Oh right, MAGA.

I utterly despise this AI Ghibli trend. If you're a fan of Ghibli or Hayao Miyazaki you wouldn't do this. I especially hate that fascists are now doing it. Miyazaki hates fascists. I hate what the internet and social media have done to our society. Clearly the majority of us are not ready to use them responsibly.

[-] aesthelete@lemmy.world 83 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

It's even a bad image for their intended purpose, because it evokes empathy for the person crying in handcuffs.

I guess since the person making it and the philistine machine that produced it both have no understanding of empathy nor art, that was lost on the generators of this image.

[-] spoopy@lemmy.world 31 points 2 months ago

You've missed out on the last several decades of Republican rhetoric, tears of "their enemies" is exactly what they want. They know they're the bad guys and revel in it.

It does for you. For the intended audience, it makes them cheer and jeer at the ‘stupid brown woman’ ‘finally getting her comeuppance’ for ‘daring to disrespect the flag by being an illegal’.

They have no sympathy or empathy. They want to see PoC crying in chains as they are led off by white officers. To them, that means the system is working.

Hayao Miyazaki: I don't think there's anything that could make me despise the US more than I already do.

The only war is class war! Immigrants are hard working people who deserve a path to citizenship. The parasite class is the tech bro oligarchs!

[-] tacobellhop@midwest.social 17 points 2 months ago

They weaponized the only interesting thing about America. Immigrants.

This photo breaks my heart. Like what the actual fuck???

[-] dukeofdummies@lemmy.world 29 points 2 months ago

If it makes you feel better, that hand has 7 fingers so it's probably AI.

At least a human didn't draw it

[-] EtnaAtsume@lemmy.world 24 points 2 months ago

It's AI. The trend du jour is uploading a picture to ChatGPT and asking it to recreate it in Studio Ghibli style.

I don't understand what they thought this image would do? Except make people more upset.

[-] Venus_Ziegenfalle@feddit.org 45 points 2 months ago

When people say the cruelty is the point they really mean it. MAGA fascists consider this satisfying. If it makes people upset that's even better. Imagine these people as highschool bullies. That's really all there is to it.

[-] WhatAmLemmy@lemmy.world 25 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

MAGA and fascism are not simple bullying. They are not "politics". They are a mental illness epidemic.

These people have had their logic corrupted, like a neurological virus. They can't explain Trumps policies or what he's done to benefit them. They don't even care. They just have "faith" in the closest thing to Satan they'll ever see, for absolutely no reason they can logically explain. They are insane, and a danger to society.

[-] 100_kg_90_de_belin@feddit.it 20 points 2 months ago

They're the living embodiment of the Genoese saying "to cut off your dick to spite your wife". They live to make other people "mad", but being sympathetic with the plight of less fortunate people isn't "being mad". They are nothing more than bullies, but they run a world power.

Jesus, they really do ruin absolutely everything they touch. It's like Midas but even worse.

[-] Pregnenolone@lemmy.world 37 points 2 months ago

This is old school propaganda imagery

[-] droans@midwest.social 31 points 2 months ago

If this wasn't posted by the White House account, I'd definitely believe it was posted by someone against the deportations.

It's an innocent looking woman bawling her eyes out while being arrested. Why would they think this would help their anti-immigration cause?

I mean, I actually know why. Because that's what the conservatives want. They know innocent people are being arrested and denied due process. It's not that they don't care - they actively want it.

Go look at /r/conservative on Reddit. These people are cheering Rubio on after he announced that visaholders are being deported due to something they said or protested with no evidence being offered. And I'm not joking or exaggerating.

Studio ghibli produced some of the profoundly touching movies ever made. Them butchering it like this with AI is just fucking stupid.

At least be realistic about it. The fascist is in plain clothes with a facecovering. The secret police making people disappear is already well established.

"You see, I told the computer to make then weak, fat and darker skinned than me, so everyone knows that they're the bad one"

[-] Fixxelious@lemmy.world 23 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

On top of all the actual fascist shit happening and yet to happen but about to, cherry on top, can you imagine?

Miyazaki is alive to see this happen.

Fucking. Imagine.
