AI slop.
To the extent that the billboard never existed while the image implies it did – sure.
I love the term ‘slop’. It’s one of my favorite new words along with ‘nontent’.
But this, to me, isn’t that. I think of slop as ‘unrequested, unconvincing, lazy, and lifeless’. In short, ineffective and unwelcome.
I feel like this meme gets the message across. It’s not great, but it’s not terrible. The AI tells are subtle enough: the multi lane pileup in the background and some poor small size text rendering.
Not sure why I felt the need to write this. Guess I’m of the opinion that just because something is AI-generated doesn’t mean it should be discounted immediately, unless it really feels like zero effort went into it. Have a nice day!
Yeah, I feel like there isn’t much of a difference between taking an existing picture and editing the text into it or using AI to generate a picture and editing the text into it.
Because I think the text looks way too good to be done by AI.
I’m fairly certain the text is AI generated too, just because of the questionable “creative” decisions that I don’t think a human would make (why does some of the text have overlines? why is only the Canada line red? why are all the lines jarringly different font sizes?)
plus, now that I zoom in, one of the colons has different sizes for the top and bottom dots. I guess GANs can just do text now
Well, for starters the billboard is only about 15’ tall and goes over the road. That’s not normal. Everything has a odd inconsistent blurry look to it and all of the smaller text is distorted and illegible.
Finally, the details on… well everything are wrong. Why does the white truck in the foreground have one giant door with a handle in the middle and a second handle on the truckbed? What is the traffic flow in this image? How many lanes does the road have? Why are all the lamps on the top of the billboard pointed so weirdly? What sort of neighborhood is this in?
I did not pay attention, dang.
I was thinking there were way too many lamps above that billboard but I don’t know what highway billboards look like, they seem like a US thing.
But the oddly placed handles and doors are a surefire way to tell this is AI, I should look out better for those things!
I’m out of the loop and also not American. Can somebody elaborate please?
Donald Trump has offered to purchase Greenland. He wants to take the Panama Canal by brute force and keeps suggesting that Canada should become a State in order to avoid his oncoming tariffs. Meanwhile, Musk ‘donated’ about 250,000,000 USD to Trumps election campaign helping ensure he won and now we are all watching the US become an oligarchy. (Effectively Trump is owned by Musk).
Donald Trump has offered to purchase Greenland.
No, Trump has been saying, in a threatening way, that Greenland is going to be part of the United States. He hasn’t suggested buying it, but he hasn’t ruled out taking it with military force.
Effectively Trump is owned by Musk
No. Musk bought a little influence and so far hasn’t pissed Trump off enough that he’s been cut off. But, it’s just a matter of time.
He has asked to buy it several times, not sure where you have been.

Nice to see that Mush bought influence with Drump. I personally am not going to play the game of talking about them not getting along. These two clowns trying to play good cop bad cop when they are both heels is pretty stupid.
Trump wants to buy Greenland and Canada, rename the gulf of Mexico to the gulf of America, and take control of the Panama canal
Trump wants to invade Greenland and Panama. He wants to extort Canada into having no other choice than to submit to statehood.
Who even gets the money when you buy a country? Does it go to the people? If it does then that money is coming right back through taxes.
Elon Musk is the resident Nazi at the heart of the US government and is widely believed to have bought his influence with Trump. Oh and also Trump is President again after being a convicted criminal. No this isn’t a joke.
What makes Elon a Nazi? Does he promote genocide or racism? I’ve only seen one picture of him doing the pose but have no context. Also lol on Trump. I would’ve assumed people with such a track record wouldn’t even qualify to work as teachers or any other job, let alone run and get elected as president lmao.
Elon Musk has a well documented track record of supporting far right causes that mirror Nazi ideology. At the Inauguration he performed two Nazi salutes (one to the crowd and one to the flag). He routinely promotes the methods of genocides of trans people and Palistinians through both verbal parlance and through direct funding and uses well known euphemisms in support of white supremacy causes. He has authoritarian leanings tasked with removing from government service entire administrative arms that previously were not electable or apointable positions (because they were staffed with experts whose task is to stick to their guns of scientific or proven best practice and not simply be yes men telling the administration what they want to hear).
He also has never denied making a Nazi salute in the days since it’s happened instead deciding to make Holocaust and Nazi featured jokes.
At this point what evidence can be put forward that he is not a Nazi?
Musk is very pro apartheid in South Africa and Israel, as a model for “If all politicians love Israel doing what it does, surely America can do similar in US.” Neo-naziism, mainstream right, in America is hateful of blacks, Muslims, and Hispanics. Genocidal ethnic supremacist, Netanyahu, says Musk cannot be a nazi because he supports Israel as much as all US rulership/oligarchy.
Rather than semantic definitions of nazi, we should focus on Supremacist apartheid ethno states being praised for democracy. That ADL/Netanyahu, and all politicians who pledge loyalty to Israel, support Musk, and thought Trump would be best for Israel, is the core problem in US/media rulership.
Watch the video. Don’t just look at the pics, watch the damn video. This is some sea lioning just asking questions nonsense that I can’t take seriously. His family left Canada during their civil rights movement to move to apartheid South Africa to enslave Africans in an emerald mine. He’s a fascist. He’s a Nazi. Call a spade a spade instead of instilling doubt. Defend a Nazi you are a Nazi.
I’m answering this half assuming good faith but this being the internet I’m heavily doubting it’s a good faith innocent question.
As usual we’ve found an engaging distraction to play whack-a-mole with for a while. When we get bored with bashing Elon Musk we’ll find another one, never addressing the core problem of how to take down the oligarchy. Because that will take methodical work and a huge amount of diligent research and objective thinking - assuming anybody ever gets around to doing it at all. Most of us just entertain ourselves with angry memes, created by the few people with enough motivation to do even that much. This is why aristocracy systems can keep perpetuating themselves - they rely on human inertia - most people prioritize entertainment over doing anything substantial. Bottom line, that’s the real reason things are the way they are.
I’m more worried if Germany is for sale
Ah yes, because the US has a history of just accepting no for an answer and absolutely does not use coercion and violence to get the desired outcome.
