Honestly, why do you care?
because boooo AI
I completely agree with them.
he asked why
No he didn’t, it’s a flippant “you shouldn’t care.” He doesn’t actually want to know. Everyone knows that.
“Why should I care?” Similarly is “I don’t give a shit.”
you're choosing to interpret it negatively. you read to much into it. I tend to interpret 'honestly, why do you care' as someone who honestly wants to know why the other cares. Why would it not be that? It makes a lot of sense to me to ask this question, because I don't see the relevance of something being AI or not in the context of a meme.
I am not choosing to read too much into it. They chose those words for a reason. Stop white knighting just to be contrarian.
I was asking honestly. Why do they care? It's a meme community. Why does using an AI image to get a message across matter? Why do they care?
You are reading way too much into it.
Give me a break. You clearly were being incredulous. It was not a genuine question. Get that nonsense out of here. That’s literally how everyone uses that phrase.
