Seeing as how the comment we're both referring to is still there for you to read and it mentions the use of AI to generate an image macro, and not any travel for any purpose on board a train in India, I'm going to give you just one guess as to what tool you think Im referring to.

    You said "Critiquing your specific use of a specific tool is not the same as critiquing participation in capitalist society or consumption of capitalist goods."

    "AIGen" is a specific tool, just like "trains in india". Your counterpoint was already addressed in the comment you replied to (the one with the trains), if you count "trains in india" as a specific tool like "AI Gen". Hence my question.

    You said “Critiquing your specific use of a specific tool is not the same as critiquing participation in capitalist society or consumption of capitalist goods.”

    Yeah, I did. And in my response I also laid that out for you. Yet you somehow ignored that and instead pretend using any tool for any reason is what is being discussed now? And you're taking the side of using any tool for any reason, so can I safely assume you assume killing people is awesome since knives are tools too and they're used for murder sometimes? I figure that must be the case, since I described the difference between the two "tools" and the specific usecase here, yet that somehow went right past you, so it must not matter to you. Kind of fucked up of you to support people being blown up with dynamite btw. Wild you support using tools to construct F-35s and other bombs used by the imperialist warmachine.

    By the way, trains aren't tools, unless we expand the definition of tool in the context of this discussion to include all modes of transportation, and at that point it seems like an almost pointless descriptor.
