Just curious what people think about the other people who post AI stuff. I’ve seen a few in comments recently in other comms, and I just blocked the person posting, but I wonder if everyone just blocks them, new people reading them won’t get the social feedback not to do it? Maybe it is a better strategy to post a comment saying fuck AI instead to discourage these comments. What do you all think?
I mean, some opinions are bad. Having an opinion doesn’t inherently mean people are obligated to respect it.
Sure, but I find that where people draw that line is highly arbitrary and it easily spills over into “if you disagree with me then your opinion is bad and I refuse to hear it or even interact with you”. I have never seen anyone say blatantly racist shit on here- if I did I’d report them, because that’s not ok. What I have seen is a lot of people who simply have very specific ideas that they refuse to have challenged, be they political or even philosophical, that they group together with “bigots and racists”, in a disingenuous attempt to silence those who question their beliefs.
