This makes me so fucking angry 🀬 it's not just that the #AI fascists are forcing their shit into every tool you use - they're forcing it on YOU!

Rhett may be right that there's a performance reason behind this, but I think he's being too generous; I think Theyℒ️ are deliberately fucking with your perception. They want you to forget what real looks like so you wont resist their fakery.

Destroying trust is just the cost of doing business.
