You remind me of God in this classic:

A holocaust survivor dies of old age and goes to heaven. When he gets there, he meets God and tells him a holocaust joke.

God says, "That’s not funny."

And the man says, "I guess you had to be there."

Aw, come on.

"Cartoonist found dead in home. Details are sketchy."

"Where's the best place to hide after committing murder? Behind a badge."

"Did you know today is the anniversary of the Jonestown massacre? I'd tell you a joke about it, but the punch line is too long."

Yeah, robots looking at photos of kids that their parents voluntarily posted on the internet is no laughing matter. Way more serious than, say, violent crime. And nobody makes jokes about that, do they?

While I personally wouldn't want AI inserting trains into photos of my kids without my consent, many kids like trains, and they could add some whimsy to an otherwise uninteresting picture.

This, but unironically.

Give shitty advice, get a shitty summary of your own shitty advice.

"If you're not sure, better take the safer bet and nonconsensually burden some newly created living beings with the thousand natural shocks that flesh is heir to."

Actually, you can disapprove of both hamas and the murder of tens of thousands of Palestinian civilians. Simultaneously. Without self-contradiction, even. Give it a try!

Works for any country with an S in it.

Then we have two popular government organizations murdering civilians en mass - one much more well funded and more effective at slaughter than the other. The logic still must hold in reverse, no?

You mean like in cartoons, if one hit to the head with a frying pan makes you lose your memories, another hit will make them come back?

Does anyone else want to set the world on fire? Cause I don't. I just want to start a flame in your heart.
