Similarly, it drives me up the wall with people posting black and white "historical photographs" of history happenings, that are AI slop, and from the wrong era.

Just yesterday someone posted a "photo" of a 1921 where a submarine lost power, and built sails out of bedsheets to get home.

But the photo posted looked like a post WWII two submarine, rigged like a clipper ship, rather than the real life janky 1920's bed sheet rig and characters everywhere.

Actual incident (with actual photo): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/USS_R-14

Or people that frequent a questions and answers website, only to copy the AI answer slop as if it was their own.

I mean, thank you I guess, but anyone can do that with the littlest of efforts; and anyone with actual intention of understanding and answering the question would have recognized it as slop ans stopped right there.

It is no surprise to me that AI images have become an aesthetic of ascendant fascism. AI contains the same distaste for the actual life and complexity of history and preference for a false memory of the past with vaseline smeared on the lens.

While also rhyming with the obsession for futurism from past fascism, the intertwining of calling back to a romanticised past with an inhuman futurism is very much a pillar of the ideology.
