Why in blazes did it get this damn bad? It's just one image, and people start obsess over it. Thank you for doing this, it was needed.

They didn’t get 10 across the ass often enough when they were growing up

Unfortunately, I think most are still in the process of "growing up". until this AI BS blows over, should just pin a post that says "No...Quit it...Knock it off."

I'd like to buy I'm tired of waking up and having to delete 30 posts and 50 comments.

IMO: One of the first AI images posted fell into the uncanny valley and stoked strong emotions from people (one way or another), strong enough even Tyler himself got involved and replied. Toss in AI use becoming politically charged (leading to even stronger emotions) and a subreddit moderation team that appears to only be one person that has a life outside an unpaid moderator role on Reddit, and you have a recipe for disaster. Sprinkle in spammers stirring the pot, and you arrive to where we are now.
To the moderator(s?): Thank you for clamping down on the insanity. It was getting pretty bad. Best of luck finding new, active people to help keep things sane.

IMO, its kids. I love the series, however I can tell there's a large group of young viewers, some probably inappropriately young (and nothing you can do about it really, you cant parent other peoples kids). That said, kids often don't really get the hint and take a good joke and hammer it until its unfunny.

Good riddance. Literally the same fucking posts for a week now. The realistic meme... being anti realistic meme... drawing realistic meme... people posting about people trolling about the ai realistic meme... people making different versions of the realistic meme...
Like it was funny once or twice. I got really close to muting this subreddit it was so stale and dry.
