Trump was not deplatformed, if anything the total opposite of that.

For those curious, this apple does exist (though it's more of a very dark purple) and it grows at high altitude in Tibet. The altitude gave it its colour.

It may surprise you to know that people produced music before IP laws existed.

This seems rather unlikely. Ukraine for example takes care to inform journalists and simply asks them not to compromise their locations, checking phones and cameras where necessary.

They don't hold journalists at gunpoint, delete all images off of each device, then threaten the journalists if they dare come back.

Israel has committed crimes in Syria too, which they seem keen to cover up. Intimidation of the press fits in that pattern. They wouldn't behave like this if it was jusy opsec.

Not the guy you replied to, but:

In 1983, he announced in the New Statesman that Hitler had his reasons for exterminating six million men, women and children. "There is a trait in the Jewish character that does provoke animosity," he said. "I mean, there's always a reason why anti-anything crops up anywhere; even a stinker like Hitler didn't just pick on them for no reason."

That's... pretty fucking anti-semitic ngl. He's basically victim-blaming Jewish people for the Holocaust. Also "picking on them" is quite a eufemism for "industrially genociding".

That's got nothing to do with zionism or being anti-Israel.

Yes, that was the joke. Clearly people didn't get it.

Out of genuine curiosity, which country do you consider to be a real Marxist state?

Horace Slughorn gave it to Harry. It's named "Felix Felicis" or liquid luck.

Renewables will not cover your usage.

False. Multiple countries are already able to run on 100% renewables for prolonged periods of time. The bigger issue is what to do with excess power. Battery solutions can cover moments where renewables produce a bit less power.

Enormous Elizabeth could also work I guess.

The image shows perfect spiral symmetry, which suggests it's not a fully AI generated image. It could be a base AI image that was edited by hand to form the spiral though.

The same base was likely used for https://www.shutterstock.com/pt/image-photo/surreal-infinity-time-spiral-space-antique-2262957649 as well. Same 'squiggles' it seems.

Online 'AI art detectors' are terrible and rarely accurate, so I wouldn't consider that as proof of anything.

This person has made more images in this style, I wonder how old the oldest one is (since this is one of the most recent ones). If the oldest similarly-styled one is too old, then it would be evidence that the image is likely not AI generated.
