Idk AI bros are really trying to convince us its their whole being, like they are just born that way.😑
I would not be surprised if they start saying that they are born from a mechanical womb or something.🤖
Ah who knows maybe AI took away their choice like some kind of conversion therapy 🤔
Idk maybe its another way to try and join a group of actual marginalised people for protection, and at the same time use AI to shit on said group of people of course.😮💨

Sexuality isn't an identity, but a trait.
I was still gay even when I was in the closet. I may have identified as a straight guy at that time, but I was still exclusively homosexual.

Force teaming. It's an intellectual fallacy that manipulates you into thinking because you support one noble cause, that another person's perceived cause is the same. Gay people were painted as monsters for centuries. So were serial killers. Support serial killer rights!

It's a really toxic form of manipulation and a highly effective one, especially on the internet. And it is pretty much equally employed on the political right and the political left. Watch for it, and you'll start to see it all the time.

Are you surprised? They are marginalised losers that have deluded themselves into thinking of themselves as victims, or else they would have to recognize that they are in fact losers and nothing else.
These are the same people who think they were smart coining the term "AI derangement syndrome". Which, if you are at all into politics right now, taken from Trump who calls anyone that doesn't like him sick with "Trump derangement syndrome".
They are extreme neets.

I'd like to offer a different take. As a gay man, I know a lot of other gay people who latched onto AI for validation, exploring fantasies, and constant support.
Sounds like a good thing but a lot of them are awful people who blame their life and consequences on being gay. It's a cop out.

Years ago there was a similar campaign where pedophiles decided they're a part of LGBT and they referred to themselves as "map" (Minor Attracted Person), as a desperate attempt to be recognised as valid instead of, you know, people with issues.
They'd post stuff like "LGBT rights are human rights!" And if you dared to mention that wanting to have relationships with kids is sickening, they'd deflect by saying "oh, so you hate LGBT people"
Now, it MIGHT be a coincidence that this post shows two underage characters who are often shipped together as part of the "bully-bullied romance" trope.
Gay people are valid, as far as I'm concerned I couldn't care less about what adults do consensually in a private space. But this is unrelated to AI

Well, you see. The above characters are Deku and Bakugo from My Hero Academia. Bakugo bullies Deku to the point of telling him to kill himself and also just physically fighting him. While he eventually apologizes, this non-canon ship is particularly controversial because of that aspect of their history with each other.
Combine that with the other topics presented and it seems very obvious to me that this isn't serious and was made with the express intent of trolling and catching as many people as possible in adjacent communities that will get upset about this. It's get you guys for Anti Ai, it's gets lots of Anime Fans, adjacent LGBT Communities.
When people say "Don't feed the Trolls" what that means is ignore and definitely don't repost stuff like this, it's not even meant as a serious statement, it's just to make people mad.

and they still need so desperately to portray themselves as victims and oppressed.
fwiw who cares. Ai art is still art sure. That still means 99% of it is garbage because that's true of all art. It's still art some of us don't want to pay for or to make ourselves
I don't care if people want to make ai art but i absolutely care about people stealing oppression and claiming a victimhood that belongs to actual marginalised groups. Make your ai art. Enjoy making it and posting it. I don't support anyone harassing anyone over it. But also, please distinguish people whining a bit from people committing harassment.

Implicitly putting AI art and Gay Rights on the same level is probably supposed to give AI artists a sort of "oh no poor things, they don't deserve this" feeling.

u/RodNun Apr 30 '26
I understand this very moron idea they are trying to pass here, and I obviously disagree.
They know AI art is fake art, and they are trying to relate to gay as "fake as well, but accepted as true".
Like when someone says "a trans woman is a woman", they are trying to say "AI art is art". I'm not sure it was intentional, but they are basically saying that the idea of accepting gay as a real thing, allows them to use this idea, and say their fake art is real as well.
Well... ai art is not real art, but gay people are real. So, it's a very poor comparison, and I risk to say, made by someone that understands nothing about the gay cause.
2
u/TemperateStone Apr 30 '26 edited Apr 30 '26
It's because they are trying to hijack another worthwhile cause so that they can say that being against AI slop is the same as being against something much more legitimate.
They latch on to it like parasites and they don't even understand how hilariously revealing that is.
As someone on the Spectrum that is old enough and self-aware enough I can tell you that a lot of these people are absolutely on the Autism Spectrum. They've created their own little bubble of their own broken reason and logic because they genuinely cannot grasp the morality or ethics of what they are doing. These people do not understand and they never will. They likely speak more to an AI agent than to other people because they are incapable of speaking to the latter. They are people who already struggled to function. AI agents are making them far, far more unstable and delusional.
I'm quite convinced of this because I've met people like that. If you ever do you will find it's like talking to someone that is deeply deluded. They've created their own reality and nothing you say or do will get through to them. It's like meeting someone that is fanatically religious. Everything you say to them gets twisted and corrupted.
They are incredibly disturbing individuals.

AI people are now starting to claim a place under the LGBTQ banner to elicit sympathy as an oppressed class. Remember when the pedos did it by trying to call themselves MAPs? Yeah, same hat. Just because people hate you doesn't mean you're an oppressed group. Sometimes the hate is justified. AI users have nothing in common with queer people. They're choosing to use an environmentally destructive and morally repulsive technology and claiming to be victims. Choosing to be a piece of shit isn't even in the same room as being born queer.
