The AI graphic is because the meme is about using AI as a tool for agitprop.

I thought it was just about posting online

That's not really a controversial thing we need to raise awareness about though, if anything there's too much focus on posting online as opposed to engaging with people in the physical world.

But then AI is not that useful either

I don't see how that follows. I'm not suggesting that online agitprop is not useful, I'm simply saying that we already do a lot of it. However, AI somehow became controversial within left circles and people are avoiding using it. Yet, it's an excellent tool that drastically lowers the barrier for making memes and other types of content that we should be leveraging.

Furthermore, AI tools can absolutely help with real world organizing as well. You can use LLMs to create study guides, sum up key points in literature, and so on. If you're working with a local group in person, you still have to prepare material that you use for education. Having a tool that can save time doing that is invaluable.
