This must be real because Republicans and Fox News are acting like this is exactly what zelensky did.

[–] ieatpwns 14 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Fuck yessssssss. I’m jerking off to this as I type

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 day ago

I can't believe how cathartic this was lol

[–] zildjiandrummer1 9 points 1 day ago

This is beautiful. Also terrifying that this is the world we live in with AI, and it's only getting better. We already live in a post-truth world, but refined AI will lead to absolute chaos. Everything will be shoved off as AI whether it's real or not.

Needs a cloud of orange spray tan wafting from the blow

[–] Professorozone 3 points 21 hours ago

That is SO satisfying to watch.

[–] DarkFuture 3 points 23 hours ago

Saved on all my devices so I can watch on repeat wherever I am.

[–] bitjunkie 3 points 1 day ago

Homey got dishragged

[–] CatZoomies 115 points 1 day ago (4 children)

Finally, a use case for AI. God this is so beautiful. I can watch this all day.

Fuck the Fanta Menace.

[–] bitchkat 3 points 1 day ago

Going to be fun entering my time sheet.

[–] [email protected] 17 points 1 day ago (1 children)

‘Fanta Menace’!!! I’m in fucking tears, how have I never heard this before!? 🤣🤣🤣

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I personally prefer the fanta fascist, but that could just be me

[–] SmackemWittadic 3 points 1 day ago

That's nice, but it kinda loses the fact that it's meant to sound like "Star Wars I: The Phantom Menace"

[–] [email protected] -2 points 1 day ago

"AI slop is great to make political propaganda" is the absolute worst take.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 day ago

Agreed - this is good.

[–] [email protected] 24 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Fuck I wished this happened

[–] [email protected] 4 points 22 hours ago

I still wish he got hit with that bullet. I haven't given up on forcing history to comply with my wishes.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 day ago (3 children)

I wonder if he did this for real what would happen next?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 23 hours ago (1 children)

I'd be an obvious act of war. Republicans and most average Americans would feel justified in joining with Russia to rip Ukraine in half in retaliation. Even Europe would be hesitant to defend Ukraine because we had all just seen the Ukrainian president (fatally?) assault the king of america on live television.

However, within the country I think if any national level democratic politician was serious about the threat posed by trump they should use their political position to get access to him and then tackle him and start punching. Obviously they'd go jail. Obviously there'd be a national scandal. But the dude is old a hard fall would kill him. In the long run, it'd do way more good than holding up a "this isn't normal" index card.

[–] MrMcGasion 4 points 23 hours ago

JD Vance and Mike Johnson are strong deterrents to that though. Because both are equally dangerous as Trump in their own ways, and at least a tiny bit more competent. Vance would be more pro-oligarch than Trump, and Johnson would be more Christian Nationalist/Handmaid's Tale. If anything Trump's erratic nature keeps those factions off balance because he's so self-serving.

[–] thedeadwalking4242 2 points 23 hours ago

He’d immediately be shot probably

[–] RememberTheApollo_ 2 points 23 hours ago* (last edited 23 hours ago)

Knowing what fragile snowflakes trump and the republicans are they’d probably have him jailed or try to have him shot and just hand Ukraine to Putin on some sort of shared exploitation agreement.

Why does this not continue the sentence with "to death, on sight, anytime, anywhere". They're really just walking violence targets, nothing more.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 day ago

I can’t stop watching this. ❤️

[–] [email protected] 53 points 2 days ago

I love the ending where Z returns to his big dick energy meditation pose.

[–] Lauchs 30 points 1 day ago

That was a cathartic watch, thank you.

[–] TokenBoomer 1 points 23 hours ago

And just like that, AI was now good.

[–] Lootboblin 32 points 2 days ago

This Is Beautiful.

[–] [email protected] 29 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (4 children)

That would have been sweet, but diaper boy would have handed Ukraine to russia or whatever his endgame is.

[–] chiliedogg 2 points 1 day ago

Diaper boy couldn't survive a punch like that.

[–] homesweethomeMrL 55 points 2 days ago

That's what he did anyway (and was going to do anyway).

[–] [email protected] 50 points 2 days ago (2 children)

He's already doing that. US stopped all aid to Ukraine (even though it's probably not legal for him to decide that), and is planning on lifting sanctions against Russia.

[–] chiliedogg 2 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

There's no probably about it.

But he's already been impeached by the house and acquitted by the Senate for stopping aid to Ukraine, so the law doesn't matter anymore.

[–] [email protected] -4 points 1 day ago

There are two possible outcomes: either Europe takes over Ukraine’s defense successfully, or they can’t.

If they can’t, then what the US really did is the exact opposite of giving Ukraine to Russia: it made Russia pay a million lives for it.

[–] Carmakazi 13 points 2 days ago (1 children)

I think the more pressing problem would be that SS would arrest Zelensky on the spot, if not put a 9mm hole in his head.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 2 days ago

Yeah, that would probably be how it happens.

[–] FluorideMind 19 points 1 day ago

This is how all wars should be decided.

[–] [email protected] 15 points 2 days ago

Some polls say that Americans think Z overstepped in the negotiations. Seems like he was just using his right to free speech.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Hypothetically speaking... say this happened, what are the legal ramifications. Zelensky is should have diplomatic immunity, right? Does he have body guards there to hold of the SS? How does this play out?

[–] michaelmrose 8 points 1 day ago

Probably we ignore that and arrest him. Trump has him murdered in prison and a public statement is released that he committed suicide.

[–] brucethemoose 8 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (1 children)

Is this Wan Video I2V? Cog?

To others wondering what that is: locally runnable image/video generation is kinda having a moment, right now.

[–] homesweethomeMrL 4 points 2 days ago

I dunno. Just found it on the innerwebz.
