    I thought facebook today was more like

    here’s an uncanny AI picture of Jesus

    here’s the same but Jesus is with a korean flight attendant

    here’s the same but jesus is with a starving brown kid

    Here’s the same but the brown kid is missing limbs

    Here’s an uncanny AI picture of people, in military kit, missing limbs, in wheelchairs, sitting in the middle of the highway, with signs

    Here are AI comics with midcentury styled nuclear families, and soldiers, in situations, and with text, that is surreal, at best, and nightmarish, at worst

    These are all with titles like “people don’t want to see pictures like these anymore”, “no one wants to support the troops”, “you won’t share this”, and they are all tagged #BOOMchallenge
