In the hypothetical future scenario where the output is good enough I don't think there's much of a point in making a distinction between something that is optically manipulated via lens vs done so via software.

The animals that we have been breeding for ages are pretty far removed from their wild counterparts of yore. Also, there's a lot of homeless people that would live better as my slaves, but you'd probably still rather see them free

No, what's quite a stretch is the ancestor comment describing our society as being designed for a minority. And yes actually, trans males would feel like they are being treated like shit by the people in this thread absolutely insistin

They make a big deal about it in pharma in trainings and whatnot, but then they don't really seem to enforce it. Adobe providing catered box seats to a big game? No problem. Random director spending too much on an internal team dinner,

I don't personally use TikTok, but I'm not sure that I'd care much if they know that I like to watch videos about pottery or gaming or whatever. Google / YouTube certainly knows already.
