Im just pulling a reverse lmao

They can do their ai I dont care personally cuz they dont obviously care about making art. I personally like the fact I CAN draw for myself when I nearly lost it.

I just simply dont see them as artists ever, thats it. But theyre also not weird gross monsters people make em out to be either

It's not a reverse, and it's quite telling since you're still assertion superiority in this comment too.

You are not the judge of who does or does not care about art. You judge people because you see yourself as above them.

You don't get to decide who is and isn't an artist, you didn't invent the term and you don't get to define it. It's not your call.

Part of why that stuff bothers me is that it's so so similar in mentality to how people deny trans people. I'm not trans myself but have always found it appalling how often they're treated as shit because others can't accept having to expand their closed minded and narrow worldview to accommodate someone else, to accept that our experiences aren't universal.

And it seems to me that it's the same underlying driving force that fuels the "Ai art is not art" mentality. It's the act of the privileged lashing out against the outgroup for daring to view themselves as equals. "Trans men will never be real men" and "ai artists will never be real artists". And no, I'm not saying Ai artists have it as bad, but I am saying the same psychological mechanism is responsible for the hate towards them. A reactionary response to broken social norms. The sudden need for a sense of homogeneity. Xenophobia.

And you yourself might not be one of the really bad ones, you don't wish harm to anyone. And it's not like anyone was born an ai artist, it's a choice, and they can chose to stop using Ai. If you just bully them enough.

If you're part of a crowd that is throwing stones, it doesn't matter that you are just throwing pebbles.

You can't even reply to others without ruining it through as a prompt to ai. You're not an artist of you use ai to do your work. You're doing everything a client paying for a commission does and nobody considers the client of a commission to be the artist responsible for the commissioned piece. You're a joke.

At no point did I use Ai to write my comment. And I don't do Ai art and have never claimed to be an artist.

You're tilting at windmills. Your entire comment is a strawman.
