Before you decide to ragepost in the comments about how terrible either of these guys are, please take a moment and look at how happy they are. Wouldn’t this be a nice outcome for a change?

    There are plenty of actual people that would fit here, but that demented sociopathic rapist fraud who can’t stop lying is not one of them. “Humanizing” him and otherwise making his crimes seem normal, by any method, hurts everyone.

    The fact that there is no confusion as to which one that is should tell everything. Would someone put Hitler in there? No, because that’s defeating the ostensible purpose of a “feel good” AI image of politicians. And that’s doubtful. Whether or not this was intentionally made to boost the “both sides” narrative or the “trump’s normal” narrative, or just plain trolling is irrelevant.

      I think you’re putting too much thought into this. No one thinks these obvious AI images are representative of real life. I doubt anyone is thinking “you know what? that Trump feller is alright!” based off of these images.

        Thats how propaganda works. Most people don’t consciously think it.

        And let’s be crystal clear: propaganda absolutely works very well.
