  2. Your post, included comments, or your title/comment should include some kind of commentary or remark on the subject of the screen capture. Your title must include at least one word relevant to your post.
  3. You are encouraged to provide a link back to the source of your screen capture in the body of your post.
  4. Current politics and news are allowed, but discouraged. There MUST be some kind of human commentary/reaction included (either by the original poster or you). Just news articles or headlines will be deleted.
  5. Doctored posts/images and AI are allowed, but discouraged. You MUST indicate this in your post (even if you didn't originally know). If an image is found to be fabricated or edited in any way and it is not properly labeled, it will be deleted.

It's not satire. It's overt propaganda. Problem is, it's lazy propaganda! Do you think people who truly love Ghibli would be swayed by this? Who does this appeal to? It's nonsense.

That said: let them keep doing it. Allow them to continue shootinh themselves in the foot.

I think OP meant irony. The irony that we're at a point where zionist/imperialist militaries are communicating on a nazi-owned platform using stolen AI art styles about war when the style was developed by someone vehemently against war/imperialism in their creations. The irony is palpable on each and every level.
