The US has been dealing with trade for about 250 yrs, China has been dealing with these things for over 2000.

Cool, now get rid of the AI slop
Generally in favour of that notion.
But I also don't think being able to communicate ideas visually should be strictly in the domain of people who can draw.
I can't draw AND Ii don't have anything worth saying so it isn't really an issue for me, personally. I just slap impact font on a carefully selected meme template, the way God intended.
Edit: Behold
Even without knowing how to draw, couldnt you just take images from the internet and edit them together?
Now it's art
Frankly, the problem with AI slop isn't the AI, it's the slop. We now get to see what all those "I have so many great ideas, if only I could draw, you'd see!" people's ideas actually are, and it's... this shit.
Anyone can draw it just takes time and effort.
"Can't draw" effectively means "don't currently have the skill" not "will never be able to", generally. If it would take hours learning a new skill to create one thing and if you don't have the available time to do so, then that's outside of the realm of a reasonable expectation, and thus effectively counts as "can't".
Nah lol I can draw this terribly in Paint easy peasy

No amount of effort or practicing worked for me. I don't know if it's some kind of visual issue, a mental issue, or what. I do have aphantasia, so that might be related? I cannot reproduce something I see. It's just like the data that make up the thing don't make sense in a way I can put it on paper,
I’m surprised these images make it so high up on Lemmy when this place is (rightly) so culturally opposed to the stuff.
They can be tough to spot.
but the Slop Sepia
The battle is lost (´；ω；｀)
The arms race is real (╯︵╰,)
Crypto is still bullshit ʕ´• ᴥ•̥`ʔ
But AI is here to stay ʕಠ_ಠʔ
Yeah, I don't like it either (⌐■-■)
Needs more Pooh.
"If I make the number big enough, China will eventually have to start paying the tariffs, right?"
At some point, it's just time to put in an embargo.
Trump already learned* the word "tariff", and now you want him to learn another?
*: Yes, I know he doesn't know the definition of "tariff", but he knows it's a word.
