And those bots can manipulate you into doing whatever the fuck they want you to do.

Oh my god, this IS just a launchpad for lame conspiracybros 🤦🤦🤦

No, the Moon landings were real and the images/clips you see of it online are real too. If it was faked, the USSR would have screamed to the high heavens about it. Just because you personally haven't experienced something does not mean it can't actually happen.

Grow the fuck up and accept reality doesn't conform to your wishful thinking.

Oh, and the Earth is round, too, and NASA livestreams and photos of the very clearly round Earth are valid too.

Just because the majority of people believe something without thinking about it doesn't mean it isn't true or they're not critical thinkers. People know what's worthwhile to question and what's not, and that's a vital aspect of critical thinking you did not consider because you don't understand or care about what it is, it's just an emotional cudgel for you to accuse regular people of bullshit to brainwash and abuse them.

Get off of my feed. Go outside.

Inb4 "Well that's not his point" -- yes it is; he's just trying to pretend to be reasonable to get his foot in the door. Salesmen do this shit all the time; it's a common tactic and it's why we know not to listen to people like him.

Because it's not automatic and is outside of the user's control, to start.

So, I'm just going to not buy their garbage.

The fact that it's AI generated and not directly light-into-image makes it untrustworthy.

Like actual film photos are a lot harder to fake and therefore are more trustworthy.

In principle, that image AI software can be programmed to generate whatever it wants. It can even censor your own film footage.

Like if a revolution happens in this country next year, you bet your ass the police and military will exact atrocities on the American people to stop it, and the corporations they're in bed with can reprogram everyone's phones to censor out the footage of it, so genocide cannot be proven.

Watch and see it happen.

The Moon landings? Hello?

Well, I'm glad you're breaking out of the cycle. I have seen with my own eyes how that shit turns humans into literal, and I mean LITERAL zombies.

You couldn't pay me enough to ever do anything like that

I literally did just that for a summer a few years back. An extremely exhilarating adventure, but I got bored of that crap after a while.

And no, I have never consumed any hard drugs nor would I ever given a fifth of a third of a quarter of the shit I saw on the road.

Then hosts need to ban VPNs.

They need to use cookies that attach a unique identifier to each machine to enforce bans per machine. Hash the cookie so it can't be edited. If a user clears their cookies, they need to put in a special private key to get back into their account.

Or just make users scan in ID or pay with a credit card to gain membership.

None of those ideas are perfect but they are needed for better ban enforcement overall anyway.

That's a terrible idea and so easily gamed.

🤔 So we need to focus on solutions.

What do you think would solve the problem of domestic abuse as a whole?
