"a dog biting at a red mesh ball underwater is just such a heckin' unique idea, this artist should own the concept for 100+ years! in fact, even if the AI had changed the dog to a dalmatian and the ball to green, even that shouldn't have been enough! give artists total ownership over concepts naow!!!!"

Quote:It makes sense, you don't own the way an image is framed. What should happen is that people should be allowed to freely distribute this comic, as AI works should not be allowed to be copyrightable.

given USCO precedent and guidelines, edits to the image such as inpainting to add more bubbles or changing the dog's teeth slightly could be offered copyright protection over the "arrangement" of those inpainted edits, similar to the protection afforded collages (where you disclaim the imagery but call the layout your own), and in practice that's about as good a protection as full copyright, since people still couldn't use the dog cartoon as-is and wouldn't actually know which parts weren't part of an edit and would thus be unprotected
SCIENCE!

For thousands of years the whole middle east was a place of peace and quiet harmony where the jews, christians, sunni and shiites all got along.  Then that British Lawrence of Arabia fellow came along and invented jihad.

Not necessarily leading to terrorism but just divisions in society. But then those divisions can further create the foundation for the bad actors who radicalise there young men and women to perform these actions.

You can't control how families raise their kids but any organisations that radicalise people should be investigated and shut down well in advance of these kids going down these rabbit holes.

I'm 99% sure that guy once talked about being Turkish so he's likely Muslim himself or was at least raised that way. Muslims abroad being more devout than in i.e. Turkey itself is also nothing new.

Absolutely nothing he said here would be considered controversial if he had been talking about conservative Christians

You can say young men are all cunts and need to be drowned at birth because they’re white men until the cows come home, but don’t you dare spell out the issues with Islam and the very foundations it’s based on? No that’s Islamophobia, incredible

Places like ERA and the left in general will never be able to deal with the toxic, homophobic aspects of Islam that often becomes violent. It's just too much of an uncomfortable topic for them, criticizing religions and cultures that they view aren't majority white. It just brings up too many uncomfortable implications that they cannot totally ignore. One being maybe mass immigration of people from extremely conservative cultures that view LGBT people as demons that need to be killed isn't such a great idea for the host nation and its society.

Can't have that conversation, though. Better to just shut it down via banning anyone who brings it up and yell "Islamaphobia" and "racist!"

Not sure why they don't immigrate to the deep south. Plenty of like minded extreme conservatives there.

It's always a funny position for someone to take if their public output of artwork for the last however many years mostly consists of drawing a copyrighted corporate character including falsely vowing to produce their own book featuring the character just because the owner hasn't. But that's none of my business...

Most people here have no idea what the fuck is going on in Namibia's Internet ecosystem, for example- their memes, their manner of online speech, their unique social networks (if any, because unless you have a firewall like China you might be fucked, stuck in America's ecosystems like Amazon or Google with no economic throughline to developing your own stuff, aka digital colonialism)- and there's reasons for that beyond apathy.
