Yes!!! villainise someone who you don't agree with, verry good!!! every good person is pro AI. Every person who is Anti AI is a selfish, evil embodiment of satan himself!!!

Anit AI never was a homogeneous block, that you can discredit every argument by comparing it to some extreme ones.

Assuming bad intent is the worst form of de-humanisation that you can use to devalue geniune concerns. How both side consider extreme argument of few extremists, as bench mark to create caricature of entire group of people in their head, and then discredit every moderate argument as pretentious using the same caricaturized perception, baffles me.

Art always is the process of letting yourself be vulnerable to understand world with extreme emotional sensitively. That sensitivity can often lead to high empathy or extreme paranoia, it doesn't tell you anything about the valus of the person.

People always understand the world with self experience, unless you feel the fear and pain yourself you don't understand fear and pain of others.

It is like intentionally hurting someone, and if they screem in pain asking them to shut because of the whataboutary of "you dint screem when others when others hurt" arguments, which is plain stupid.

And do you really think that there are no artist within other countries or immigrants??? I have travelled from India just so that I could fulfill my dream of having a stable career in arts, I am forced to work my ass off, washing dishes in restaurants and working in warehouse as the art jobs animation jobs have suddenly disappeared. I have taken loan for my art school which can't pay now because the whole mess that has been created I tried killing myself by throwing myself in font of a car but unfortunately that plan failed miserably and got beaten up instead. In living a pointless life

and you think we are just selfish bunch of individuals!! you don't know struggles of every person, so please don't assume their value system just because you don't agree with them.

Note: This is one example of many such post on defending Ai art subreddit also it is no way justifying similar approach on side of artists.

Can we be more empathetic while discussing the other side, and not make some extremist as justification for hating every person on the other side ? (Even we get constant spams and death threats from pro AI extremists please don't fall in cognitive dissonance that it happens only with you)
