Genuinely though; these AI bros are really content-gating generated slop like they expect everyone to pay TEN FUCKING DOLLARS a month to every one of their patreons? Picturd, one of the artists that these kinds of gens are probably benefitting from the most, is asking for $3. Three bucks! And you have TheKite, who actively posts all their shit on here FOR FREE themself and even answers community questions in the comments, because they know that effective advertising isn't making yourself out to look like an asshole.

Sure there's probably more going on here than just putting text in a box and pressing 'generate' 200 times, I'm not an idiot who doesn't know about inpainting. But more of you are popping up every day, posting this half-completed shit, MTLs that make no goddamn sense, and poisoning what was once a wholesome community of degenerate doujin piraters. What the hell happened to making and translating porn for the love of the game? Has Capitalism cucked us so hard that this is really necessary?

I don't give a fuck if you generate porn of twintailed Kazuma getting his prostate turned into a speedbump for futacock or whatever; until this bubble pops, that may as well be your god-given right. But at least have some respect for the communities and artists who provided you with the tools to do that in the first place.

And I'm putting that $10 towards supporting a fucking Comiket artist this year.

Goddamn.
