    Except their shit ISNT being hit first. We’ve had like a generation now of jobs being taken away with no new ones provided, except, this time, in this specific case, us commoners actually get a powerful new tool out of it. And it’s the tool you guys are shitting on FAR MORE than the capitalists taking jobs. You wanna give us some boycotts to join? Hell yeah, you’ll probably get a lot of AI Artists and ChatGPTers to join you in that. But no, they wanna just shit on us and call us thieves instead

      from their perspective it’s being hit first, not everyone has omnipotence unfortunately, so this is expected. You see the same thing everytime you interact with republicans who are ok with people losing their jobs and careers over shit being shutdown, but bitch and cry the second you even mention the potential that it could happen to them.

      Same shit probably happens with liberals as well, because everyone is a sore fucking loser, including me.

        While a fair point, it doesnt really take away from the point that they are acting more in self interest than public interest

            I can expect people to grow up and not fully act on their base instincts when it isnt appropriate to do so. Especially when it diverts attention from where the problem can actually be addressed. We are speeding head first into a future where there is nowhere near enough jobs to go around, and we havent even taken baby steps into transitioning to a society in which you arent required to work in order to live

              and we should probably be talking about this, instead of how artists are cunts because they’re concerned about themselves, on account of being themselves.

              Smells to me like you’re doing the same thing, just in a different scenario.
