While I agree with the campaign to withdraw from the program to make the government effectively set a bunch of money on fire, I wish the CCFR didn't do these AI slop posts. We donate money directly or through merch purchases. Please use it on competent advertisement creation.

You do realize that if want them to make non-AI posts that they would have to actually pay someone actual money to either make social media posts or do basic graphic design.

If you're not going to offer these kinds of services to them for free then I would seriously pipe down.

Do they not teach division anymore? You know that we give them money through donations, membership dues, and merch purchases right? There is this seriously brilliant thing you can do with money called hiring people, or buying software, or expanding your knowledge bank by taking the money you receive from one avenue, and channeling it towards something you want. It's a brilliant thing called commerce! If we give them money, they can take our money and use it within their organization for lobbying efforts. I know it's probably a foreign concept to some, but I get it, education inequality and yadada.

If other lobbying organizations can put out publications and market using this wonderful thing called the resources at its disposal, I don't see how it is an earth-shattering ask of the CCFR.

Also, last time I checked Affinity and Canva are free programs and I have yet to see their organization put out a call for an improved comms division. So... unless you understand how revenue streams, the exchange of goods and services, and you know, basic knowledge of free graphics programs, pipe down.
