This is in fact satire, though they're so goofy it could easily be real.
It says a lot that I took a bite of the onion before double checking if it was indeed an onion.

In case anyone was wondering how powerful propaganda is, it's powerful enough to convince people to tattoo the likeness of a felon rapist pedophile on their face.
To be clear, even if this is fake, I have seen actual Trump tattoos on actual faces and other body parts.
I had to double check it was satire tbh
This is so stupid it's almost brilliant!
Huh, I wonder how much he paid to have someone take a dump on the side of his head.
However many tokens the AI cost, because this isn't real
Dang it
Jesus H Christ.
I miss the days when you didn't have to check to see if something was satire.
you mean before AI made a hack artist out of everyone with a terrible idea?
No, more like the days when most people thought having a candidate's sign on your lawn was enough of a commitment to the cause.
You don't think everyone with Photoshop and Gimp for years and years before AI even came along was able to do something like this? Hell, this was easily done in paint.
that is still too much effort when you have a spark of the moment idea and dont want to waste any more time deciphering if it is a good idea or not.
is art more the ability to draw or the idea the image expresses?
is art the ability to buy a toilet or a banana and gaffer tape, or the idea behind putting a sign on a toilet in a gallery, or taping a banana to a wall?
ai art is shit not because people can’t draw. ai art is shit because there’s more often than not very little thought put into the comment behind the image
the creation of ai art is problematic because of the source training data, and the economic and environmental damage that ai data centres are causing… but those things aren’t inherent to the medium (adobes image gen for example - as awful as adobe is - was 100% trained on media that they own and paid for licenses for. it’s still damaging in other ways, but i could imagine efficiency improvements that make this part less problematic too)
it could easily be real
I think of this comic anytime someone does the mental gymnastics to acknowledge something is fake, but then continue to use it as evidence supporting their beliefs.

Now what was that you were saying again? Go ahead and reformulate your stupid thought, I'll wait.
"Yea well you might have proved that my video of a seagull driving a truck was fake, but here's a bunch of videos of seagulls doing other things, so there!"
Except the "seagull driving a truck" in your case was OP already pointing out it was satire and not that it was true while your "bunch of videos of seagulls" is about something different entirely, someone falling for a lie to arrive at a conclusion who refuses to back off from that conclusion when the lie is disproved. You are criticizing OP by alluding to a different situation that is not happening here. Your logic ... et tu?
It wasn't worth the wait.
That ear has no shooting scar either
He should take a chunk out of the ear for realism.
Wouldn’t a perfectly intact ear be more realistic?
Pour a little bit of ketchup on it.
Or just an oversized band aid
Twelve maxi pads
The closest thing I can think of, in the uk, would be getting a jimmy saville tattoo.
Correct
Except half the population don't worship saville.
How did they notice he was wearing a maga hat? Was he facing the other way at the time?
Vance is on the other cheek.
There they go again making me have to look if that was a really good joke or if the joke is on him. Literally. Edit: ah, another thing his head managed to make invisible, the Dong Pac logo.
Ok, so, in this world of ai but also blatant stupidity then I feel I must ask if this is real?
And, if it is actually real, then where can I mock this person?
Look at the bottom right. Also the background text things while blurry are actual words, it's just good old photoshop unless that guy is really dedicated to the bit enough for henna.
The proportions of his head is all wrong, and the hat doesn’t lay properly on the back of his head. I’m pretty sure it’s AI.
My jaw hit the floor so hard it left a dent!
doesnt he look like a tatooed version of chris from 1000-lb sister.
