My point is this person is obsessively shuffling through AI slop genres, spamming tons of stuff til they find something that works and that they can monetize. The thing "that works" are horrifying videos of an AI-generated mother screaming for her baby as ICE hauls her away

Freud abandoned the seduction theory because it was simply too hard to confront the reality that childhood sexual abuse was endemic in Vienna society. Thinking about that today amid the flood of Epstein emails, and the silence among the MAGA child sex abuse conspiracy theorists.

FWIW.
