Xi-sus and Mao-ry 🤣
Prompt:
Mao Zedong pregnant and glowing, wearing pastel yoga shorts and no shirt. Mao Zedong is pregnant and caressing his belly. Next to him is a cradle with the name "Xi" on it. There is a winnie the pooh poster on the wall.
Who's the pregnant virgin?
- That's the sweet part, they both are. I've heard they do a lot of lactation kink stuff.
I read this as "replaced Jesus & Mary Chain in churches".
- Same. I had a brief pause where I wondered what I was missing all these years as an atheist
Oh, now they're going the theocratic way, wonderful....
- it works for North Korea.
  
  Jesus Christ... I mean, Kim Jong-un...
MSN version of the same article without a paywall (will stop working after a while): https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/world/xi-and-mao-replace-jesus-and-mary-in-chinese-churches/ar-AA1rKed5
Random other news site citing The Telegraph: https://www.malaymail.com/news/world/2024/10/06/china-putting-up-xi-mao-portraits-in-place-of-jesus-and-mary-in-churches/152700
- thanks, I didn't run into a paywall on the article but good to have backups.
  
  thanks, I didn’t run into a paywall on the article but good to have backups.
  That's funny. The first time I opened the link I got a cutoff version of the article and it told me to make an account (which I then tried to remove with an ad blocker and the thing was called a paywal internally but the article stayed cut off), Now the second time, the message is gone.
  So yeah, that may be just a random message shown on occasion.
  
  Btw, you linked to the lemm.ee post instead of https://www.telegraph.co.uk/world-news/2024/10/05/xi-and-mao-replace-jesus-and-mary-in-chinese-churches/ directly. You can edit your post and change the URL.
I’m not a bot
- That's exactly what a bot would say.
  
  Fun on a bun
It’s all ridiculous and silly make belief. I don’t see the problem here. As long as Bethesda paid the necessary, licensing fees to origin.
Just imagine if actual people thought this sort of bullshit was real in this Day and age… Lol…
- are you just saying random words?
- Sorry guys, this is my experimental atheist AI. I never gave it any examples of christians being oppressed, so it kinda spits out gibberish when it sees any.
  
  Easy fix, train it to respond with the Nelson Laugh.
- This is the most appropriate response possible. The non-sequitor in the middle makes exactly as much sense as everything that happens in a church.
  
  Calling out bullshit as bullshit is always the most appropriate response.
  There is no such thing as invisible sky wizards who grant wishes. “Magic” isn’t real. If you think you can hear supernatural creatures speaking to you, consult the nearest psychiatrist.
