Is this AI?
Yes. Look at the ‘Proletariat’ woman’s arms. lmao Whoever made this didn’t give a single, solitary fuck.
the way genAI draws cartoons is incredibly uncanny valley and I can’t figure out exactly why
It’s this incredibly generic, smooth, stereotypical style.
ew slop. no thanks. I prefer working people
It’s so lazy to assume any graphics are AI. A simple reverse igame search could have prevented this comment

The fuck it would’ve. Either your screenshot is wrong or fabricated, and it’s telling you didn’t provide a link.
You’ve seen the arms, and there’s no way you thought: “Yeah, surely a real human did that; I need to go investigate to prove it.” You can just admit it’s AI slop.
Edit: Sorry, it was hypocritical to call out the lack of a URL and then not leave one myself (even if this gives all the info to find it). Here’s a link.
This is too oversimplified (and the images are very anachronistic and stereotypical due to sloppiness)
It lacks the role of the state as the force which regulates the tension between capitalists and proletariat.
Whatever AI made this forgot the other class of people: useful idiots who have formed a dependence corporate technology and services for even the most basic tasks.
Lazy to assume all graphics are AI. What ai existed in 2017 that would have produced these results?
Denigration of the lumpenproleteriat… Those most excluded from the system are best able to imagine life beyond and outside it and build support networks not based in capitalism.
Putting (some) of the workers in charge of the means of production doesn’t solve the problems, it merely ameliorates them for a while a new ruling class emerges from the revolutionary vanguard while switches places with the previous ruling class.
Also glorifies work as an absolute moral good, when it’s long past time to be winding it down as automation takes the load. Why the fuck are average working hours going up?
While I agree hours probably shouldn’t be going up, I think there’s a bit of a ratcheting effect at play.
If you take the classic “From each according to his ability, to each according to his needs”, you end up with the question of how you define ‘needs’.
As tech gets better, the standard of care goes up in healthcare - treatments that were ‘impractical’ 20 years ago are now expected standard of care. Same goes for safety and for standard of living. Electric lighting, aircon, floor space, your own bedroom not shared with 3 other kids, TV/telephone/internet. It’s now basically standard in first world countries to fully treat sewage and have aircon on buses - that wasn’t the case 50 years ago.
Every time automation displaces some drudge work, we’ll be able to find something new that technically could be done and would be nice to have. 30 years later people will be screaming bloody murder if that former nice-to-have breaks down.
That’s certainly not to say we’re efficiently using the labour we have.
So basically this is saying that unemployed and marginalized people are trash?
What all theory, no history does to a mfer -
You’ll be thinking the “Lumpen” are just expendable, based on Marx’s own prejudices instead of the most successful revolutionary class, within your arbitrary definitions.
You know what? Go read some theory from the 21st century. Go read some Graeber.
The theory, regardless how old it is, remains unchanged. The same struggles we face today were the same struggles from 200 years ago
If your theory does not adapt to reality as demonstrated by history, any claim of “scientific” socialism is just Capitalist Marketing.
In socialism everyone that are able are expected to contribute. Those that choose not to contribute when they are able to are excluded. There are no freeloaders.
Those that do not work do not eat.
This is why we can’t have nice things
We can’t have no e things because too many people defend capitalism and its exploitation. Which is wild because none of them have, and never will, any level of capital
this is fucking dope!
