You Can't Take Our Country. And You Can't Take Our Game.

Unfortunately made with American-made AI that uses data constructed with stolen Canadian artwork.

[-] n2burns@lemmy.ca 21 points 4 months ago

Ugh, stupid AI generated "art".

It's incredible how easy it has seemingly been to tear western nations apart.

I get the point of this cartoon, but I can't help but see propaganda that's meant to divide.

Most Americans didn't vote for Trump and harbor nothing buy goodwill for our neighbors (both north and south). 🤷‍♂️

[-] Bo7a@lemmy.ca 10 points 4 months ago

Yes, I too am shocked by how easy it is for the state media and upper echelons of a long-standing democracy to start calling the leaders of other countries governors of their states and threatening annexation.

This however, was just a funny little shit post...

[-] andyburke@fedia.io 6 points 4 months ago

I get it. It just makes me sad is all.

FWIW, we pretty much all know Americans IRL, and I'm pretty sure we all know some are just fine.

The boos aren't for you, just your country.

What is Canada meant to be here? A packet of chips or something?

[-] CanadaPlus@lemmy.sdf.org 4 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago)

A flag I think, although the top bit makes me wonder if the AI was wandering towards a coastline a bit.

[-] HellsBelle@sh.itjust.works 4 points 4 months ago

Ketchup chips.

A throw cushion

An evil president antagonized our historically friendly relations ... it would be better if this caricature was more accurate about that ... yet, it's difficult to put too much subtleties in caricatures.

[-] Bo7a@lemmy.ca 5 points 4 months ago

Agreed. My many American friends and work colleagues are not meant to be represented by this eagle.

The mean spirit of the president and his cabinet would be a better representation.

But also... This is a shitpost.

As an American, I support this. We’re so fucked

[-] sunzu2@thebrainbin.org 6 points 4 months ago

I can't imagine the GOP base think it is a good idea to fuxk with Canada but who knows road princess types are fucking idiots

I dunno. Canada got eliminated from the world juniors, and lost to the US team. If we'd lost the 4 nations thing, would the line be "I Guess You Can Take Our Country, Because You Took Our Game"?

[-] A_A@lemmy.world 3 points 4 months ago

🤣 ... yes we know, but ... the other version was obviously also prepared long before ... and would have been something like : "Okay, you took our game ... but you will never take ..."

[-] Bo7a@lemmy.ca 2 points 4 months ago

Fair point.

[-] pedz@lemmy.ca 0 points 4 months ago

If we win enough hockey games Trump will surely back off with his annexation threats. I'm so proud!!

/s just in case
