How many mass graves and extinct cultures are needed to convince Christian apologists that missionaries and missionizing are inherently xenophobic?

The answer is apparently always, "At least one more."

i need y'all to understand something about the real world: sometimes, you cannot avoid complicity. sometimes, the only way to get something really fucking important done is to shake hands with people who have shaken hands with baddies.

because sometimes? the alternative is failure. failure which leads to fucked results that hurt people and ruin society, long-term.

now, i'm not saying the Concept Art Association isn't playing with fire. i'm not even saying it's guaranteed they'll protect artists from tech's egregious, illegal, harmful misuse of AI Art technology.

i don't know if it's going to work. but i'd rather bet on a horse that can win. if you won't—because you think that makes you a good person—newsflash: it doesn't.

it makes you immature and ignorant.

your ideal society where good causes don't vaguely brush against bad brands is a fairytale. bad brands have their hands in everything that works. do the math.
