MODERATORS
Turns out that when you go out hunting for things to be offended by you tend to find them.
The "Aboriginal Australian's house' one for example was clearly going to be a no-win situation regardless of the output - if the model returned the same house as the 'Australian's house' image they'd be writing instead about how offensive it was to ignore traditional culture.
have you tagged as racist and you're certainly living up to the moniker.
I guess you're a prime example of someone looking to be offended then, because I really haven't said anything racist.
Yeah, I'm sure.
