4chan Uses Bing to Flood the Internet With Racist Images

A coordinated campaign to flood the internet with racist images is using Bing and DALL-E 3’s text-to-image AI tool.

        Have you seen the actual images that are posted on 4chan, rather than the curated content posted to news sites? The shit they’re making is hilarious.

                Lol, enjoy. If you want one with gratuitous Taylor Swift imagery and poop tsunamis, here’s another one that popped up:

          There are far-right Discord servers where they praise mass shooters that target minorities.

          The most popular topic of discussion is “how to make more people more racist” and the most common suggestion is “memes”, since they appeal to kids and are what started most of them down their path of dogshit.

          It’s not a joke.

              Or I can tell the difference between “making jokes” and “pushing far-right propaganda using jokes”.

        I’m glad the internet hasn’t fallen so far that I can’t laugh at a company getting trolled.

        It’s sarcasm, most people fake racism for fun on 4chan

          There’s no such thing as “faking” racism you dumb fuck

            Anyone who enjoys pretending to be racist is just a closeted racist.

            Like those guys that’re always “pretending” to be gay for laughs. “Watch me grab this guy’s butt, it’ll be so funny!” No, you just want an excuse to grab another guy’s butt. At least own it; you’re gay.
