I see. So whoever it is likely already knew she had been made into a meme and won’t wake up tomorrow to a devastating surprise. That still doesn’t make it right though.
And you’re correct, it is extremely racist to use an instagram photo of a unassociated Korean woman as a meme format about Chinese spies. And it’s misogynistic too. She didn’t ask to be defamed and drooled over.
If humans had any decency then we wouldn’t use random people’s photos in unrelated memes. Public figures are one thing, or pictures from news articles or photo shoots. Personal photos from social media is crazy though.
Then again, it wasn’t that long ago that putting any photos of oneself on the internet was seen as crazy, and then for some reason social media came around and started normalizing it. Zucking fuckerberg.
Anyway, as for the alleged spy from the recent headlines, I personally don’t care and if this was solely about her then I’d say it doesn’t matter. But it’s not, it’s about the person whose photo it is and the real impact and harm that something like this can have on a person’s life undeservedly.
As for Jensen Huang, I really don’t give a damn about him and I’d say we can dogpile on him as much as we want, for thinking with his dick (which surely no lemming would ever do!). And, you know, committing infidelity.
I just think if people are going to meme it, they should use the real people’s photos, or draw them or something.

Good thing I didn’t want it!

Oh gosh, now I feel bad for joking about it. I guess it was stupid of me to assume this was actually the person from the headlines.
Sometimes I forget how deplorable some internet users can be, and it just doesn’t cross my mind that somebody would use a different person’s photo to make a meme about this.
I hope it doesn’t impact the life of the person in the photo too much. But since it appears google AI is already labeling her as the spy, then it likely will affect her in unfortunate ways. That’s sad.

Oh, yeah. I got none of those either. I guess that’s why I get no chinese spies 🤷

When I was a kid I saw a batman movie where the joker was in some high-tech, high security prison, and all it took was a simple hacker to unlock his cell and let him out.
Even then I knew, one manual deadbolt is all it would have taken to prevent this…
