Agree with the message but this looks like AI slop

Nu-uh, jeans were invented in the 1850s to be sold to gold rush miners out in California. A Levi's commercial told me so. Same era had big hoop skirts. It was jeans and hoop skirts up until Disco.

The English never stated that god promised them some land.

They just took it for the Crown.

[–] Mrkawfee@lemmy.world 4 points 8 hours ago

Yeah the excuse the Brits and French used for land theft was to better the savages and teach them about Christ.

" god gave me this land " is manifest destiny reserved for settler colonies like the US and Israel.

"God, King and Country" definitely implies it

[–] ferric_carcinization@lemmy.ml 4 points 15 hours ago

Isn't the point of the whole "divine right of kings" that the kings actions follow the will of god? Or worded a bit differently, that a king works as a god's proxy.

This would mean that taking land for the crown means taking it in the name of god, right?

I think a community where you can post or link ai slop in order for some Lemming to make a human made imagine would be a fun idea.

Here, I'll poorly try this one.

the flags are important. there are too many that refuse to accept that the genocidal and violent colonial forces depicted in this meme are the same ones that are committing a genocide and ethnic cleansing in palestine -- especially gaza -- right now.

[–] Notyou@sopuli.xyz 5 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I just wrote the country instead of drawing the flags. Maybe someone more skilled can add to it.

[–] eldavi@lemmy.ml 1 points 3 hours ago

or you can just leave it as is since it already conveys the needful information.

Reporter: [REDACTED]
Reason: ai slop

There is no rule against AI, reporter. You can’t just report shit willy-nilly.

[–] Nonconfrontational@lemmy.ml 14 points 1 day ago

I wouldn't hate an instance wide AI ban. This comic could have been accomplished using wojaks and chads

[–] Leviathan@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago

Oof, being a mod in a community and hiding behind your lack of rules against AI isn't the win you think it is. Why not do something useful and ban AI?

[–] Unpigged@lemmy.dbzer0.com 16 points 1 day ago

Looks like this God fella gives a lot of weird promises.

i love reading yanqui because i keep misreading it as yaqui and it makes me feel special because i descend from them; or at least most of me does. lol

The 18 downvotes are interesting

[–] Kalothar@lemmy.ca 35 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

Man, I downvoted because of the AI used to make the meme
