    If this is a perspective trick, I can’t figure it out. These days it’s just as likely to be AI generated…

      This pic is older than genAI tech. And it’s not unheard of a veteran to lose both their legs.

        I believe you, but since I have never seen it before I wouldn’t really have a way to know that. I suppose it’s possible to find it online with an upload date of pre-AI, but without going through the trouble (which isn’t even guaranteed to find anything) it wasn’t wrong of me to doubt. Not to mention normal photoshopping things like this has been possible for many decades so even that wouldn’t prove anything.

        Oh shit, that possibility hadn’t even crossed my mind! I literally couldn’t figure out what I was looking at, I didn’t understand where his legs are supposed to be.
