some stupid opinion, a discussion-setter
“i don't like the Cringe culture is Dead movement. should i even call it even a movement in the first place? is it an opinion, trend, ideology or...?”
i don't know, i just want to spit the opinion out.
"cringe culture is dead and everybody van enjoy what they want!!" at least to me, that's as if i said "guyz pollution culture is dead and everything is ok desu we live in an amazing world". they're not the same, but i just so happen to compare it.
grow up. cringe culture will always exist amd you can't protest it. or you can, it will just take little to no effect. deal with that fact.
governments, general people, entire countries, and towns don't care about what your enemies tell you. so protesting against "cringe culture" is like putting "anti-bullying" posts on a wall. it could be on hopeful, good faith, but it'll come off as stupid and insignificant.
in my opinion people who say "uwu rawr xd cringe culture is dead" are probably lusting over bluey and her mom. they think that being attracted to a bunch of pixels that are depicted as a family is ok.
no, man. you all perhaps live in a dumb hivemind coddling each other for being loli-cons and fictional M.I.L.F. lovers. please. I'm not saying "yo /b/ro yo anon take your pills now". I'm just saying "to keep a society and a civilization right up there will always be someone who scrutinizes and someone who denies. that's how balance works"
you all seem to have some sort of toxic optimist hugbox attitude. please.
also, stop degrading teenagers to "mah lil' children". that's inconsiderate and infantilizing, even if you're saying it to defend us. we're not children, we're just minors W.T.F.saying this as someone who likes things that are considered 'cringe', and has OCs that could also be considered 'cringe'. give me better arguments to defend your point. change my mind, please. thank you

i genuinely don't care how good a piece of ai generated art or writing looks on the surface. i don't care if it emulates brush strokes and metaphor in a way indistinguishable from those created by a person.
it is not the product of thoughtful creation. it offers no insights into the creator's life or viewpoint. it has no connection to a moment in time or a place or an attitude. it has no perspective. it has no value.
it's empty, it's hollow, and it exists only to generate clicks (and by extension, ad revenue.)
it's just another revolting symptom of the disease that is late stage capitalism, and it fucking sucks.

A Call for International Solidarity.
A rousing call for international solidarity greeted leaders gathering for the annual United Nations General Assembly debate, with Secretary-General António Guterres urging them to seize the potential of multilateralism.
"The Black Sea Grain Initiative has opened the pathway for the safe navigation of dozens of ships filled with much needed food supplies," he said, referring to the agreement allowing goods from Ukraine to reach markets in need around the world. "But each ship is also carrying one of today's rarest commodities: Hope."
At a meeting of women leaders, participants urged measures to achieve gender equality, pointing out that equal societies are more peaceful and more prosperous.
The United Nations General Assembly runs through 26 September.
Daily wrap of the opening of the 77th United Nations General Assembly General Debate.

hc that at the beginning of the war, clones became used to Anakin's informality and it became common to have silly conversations after a long day with him, like "would you fight a hungry rancor once or ten angry loth-cats every day for a month" and it's always fun because Skywalker has crazy explanations for his choice, until the day he says "you're all wrong, let me ask Obi-Wan, he will agree with me"
And all the clones panic because General Kenobi is so serious and stern and important, they can't just ask him some stupid question!
But Skywalker has already dragged him over and asked him before the troopers could stop him, and of course Kenobi is frowning now, they will be all scolded for this, probably forced to clean the freshers this week for wasting his time like that, and—
"That is absurd, Anakin. I can't answer before knowing if it's possible to reason with the loth-cats."
The clones blink in unison.
"What do you mean, reason with them? They're loth-cats Obi-Wan! They're animals!"
"Yes, but if they're angry for a month, then there must be a reason. Thus—"
"No, no, don't thus me, there is no negotiation to help you there, it wasn't part of the question—"
"Then the question was not asked correctly! For example, what about the rancor's size? What about its weight? What if it's blind? I'm sure the troopers will agree that we need more information before expressing our opinion."
The noise of frustration General Skywalker makes is only the prelude to a 25-minute-long argument about providing details and sources, two deep dives into zoological reports on rancors' diet and at least three side debates about preferring dogs to loth-cats which turned into a slideshow of the cutest loth-cats on the holonet.
Needless to say, the clones are delighted and never forget to ask General Kenobi for his opinion on pretty much anything after that.
