Found it linked on SubredditDrama. Here's what they linked: (just to clarify this isn't my write up except for the unquoted parts, I ~~stole~~ expropriated it straight from the SRD post)
Link to full thread. Honestly, there's no real reason to do highlights since the craziest of comments are mostly upvoted, but anyway
"My family is Ukranian and Communism killed over 6 million of us, more than the number of Jews that were killed during the Holocaust." Bonus "why is there no r/askanazi"
(I really wish I could tell this person that the Nazis were at best going to deport 2/3rds of the Ukrainian population to Siberia).
One user thinks it's Chinese influence over Reddit. Also claims fascism died in 1945 with the fall of Nazi Germany and no Fascist state has been allowed to exist since.
"Because our school system does not teach the evils of communism." Galactic sized brain user responds with "It not so subtly promotes it".
(probably the closest thing to a true statement in the thread) :reddit-logo: :reddit-logo: :reddit-logo:
"Stalin killed 7 times more people than Hitler and Mao killed at least 20 times more people than Stalin" Upon being asked for a source, another user replies with "Yeah. Ask for sources. Very obscure fact that you would probably never be able to find. I wonder why we don’t get any of this in our beloved schools and universities?"
I, too, remember when Mao killed the entire population of modern day China, then the entire population of modern day India for good measure.
Upon someone pointing out communism is just an economic ideology, OP claims it's not because communists want to destroy religion and "the family". Says they're still doing it in today in capitalist countries through Cultural Marxism. Goes on to say it promotes "feminism, the LGBT movement, promotion of fornication, promotion of degeneracy in general, etc."
Bonus: The original poster is a fucking creationist.
The entire thread is AWFUL. Every comment. I'm sorry for not having screenshots. But this garbage fire needs to be witnessed in person.
I literally have been using the majority of my spare time to work with AI-generated images for almost two years now. I have a very thorough understanding of what exactly you'd need to pull off a stunt like this.
The background is part of the image, the obviously given clothing is part of the image, both of those things are fairly consistent across all of the images and look like what would be used for facial recognition, which is something that we know most countries do when they have the technological means to do so, China included. If you want that consistent background and clothing, it needs to be part of the training images. Otherwise, your next best option is a lot of tedious manual editing, which would be more effort than it is worth if the images are to look plausible.
I also have looked at the images myself, and vividly remember GenZedong trying to point out skin lesions as proof that an image is AI generated (definitely not their proudest moment, though they may have thought otherwise). If you'd like to dig yourself into that hole, then show some examples. Most that I've seen pointed out can be more easily explained as skin lesions, markings on the background wall, something moving when the picture is taken. This is what real NN artifacts look like, I never saw anything like these in those images, and what I see far more of is consistency in details that neural nets struggle a lot with.
