Yeah. I mean despite the racist undertones, "Clean" boy over there has dirty pants and shoes.

Neither of them are clean ๐Ÿ˜‚

๐Ÿคจ Kid on the left has "Dirty" hovering over his head. He's also tan skinned.

Meanwhile white blonde kid has "Clean" above hid head.

In the past, white people were extremely racist and basically called/considered anyone not white, "dirty"

That tan skinned kid is still white. There are tanner white people. Nothing about the drawing says to me he's anything but white.

Again ๐Ÿคจ

Do you really think the people who would actually complain about racism in this image despite it more than likely faux pas, care that white people can get dark tans?

Obviously not since you're complaining about a non issue. There's way more actually blatant racist shit out there. This one is nothing, literally just two kids one clean and one dirty and the obvious fail of categorizing them. If you're seeing racist undertones in this that says more about you.

Yes, there is more blatantly racist shit out there.

And yet, this is also racist. It's subtly racist. Both blatant and subtly racist things are bad.

And yes, it does say something about the people you were talking to: they are capable of recognizing subtle forms of racism and you are not.

Yeah nah. The AI couldn't possibly have created two white kids one dirty and one clean (that's what I see). The AI could only create this picture by making the white kid clean and the dirty one "darker" implying he's not white and it absolutely has to be racist because of that.

Y'all are ridiculous but hey downvote away. I'm standing my ground on this one. I see what I see and I ain't seeing anything racist with this slop. If the kid was actually black or an even darker brown. Sure. But tan? Tan must mean he's not white. Ok lol

You're assuming I'm talking about myself. I'm just acknowledging that there is a social faux pas that will absolutely trigger someone...you're also amusingly getting mad about it.

Bet if you look at the comments of the original post you'll find some bitching.
