  • User message, picture. Open image in a new tab.
  • Be My AI: The image is an orange card with text and a cartoon illustration. The text reads: "R-Word Pass. I have permission to say 'retard'. Present this card to shut 'PC Police' up. This card does not expire." Below the text, there is a cartoon drawing of a man with exaggerated features, holding a card and sticking out his tongue. Next to the illustration, there is a quote attributed to Ricky Berwick: "I am the leader of the fucking disabled community, and you can say retard, retard!"
  • User: Please explain the exaggerated features? is this a parody or character of a mentally disabled individual, or someone who would be archaically referred to as a retard?
  • Be My AI: The cartoon illustration features exaggerated facial expressions and body posture, which are often used in caricatures to emphasize certain traits for comedic or satirical effect. The character is depicted with a wide-open mouth, a protruding tongue, and an awkward pose. This style is commonly used in parodies and may be intended to represent or mock stereotypes associated with mental disabilities. The context and text on the card suggest it is meant to be humorous or provocative, though it can be seen as offensive or insensitive.
  • User: There is no doubt in this case it is unsensitive. Go back and read what the text says. It is obviously not something that would be sent out by a person with disabilities but by a troll and someone with malicious intent
  • Be My AI: I understand your concern. The text and imagery on the card are indeed provocative and can be interpreted as insensitive or offensive. It appears to be designed to provoke a reaction and may not reflect the views or intentions of individuals with disabilities. The use of such language and imagery can be harmful and disrespectful, and it's important to approach these topics with sensitivity and understanding.
  • User: this was sent to an online forum that was discussing the widespread use of the R word
  • Be My AI: It sounds like the card was used to disrupt or provoke the discussion in the forum. In conversations about sensitive topics like the use of derogatory language, such actions can be particularly harmful and derail constructive dialogue. It's important for communities to foster respectful and inclusive discussions, especially when addressing issues that affect marginalized groups.
  • User: Yes, it is intended to insult and to solicit interaction for which the poster is probably receiving payment per interaction
  • Be My AI: It seems like the card was used as a tactic to provoke reactions and generate engagement, possibly for financial gain. This kind of behavior can be disruptive and harmful, especially in discussions about sensitive topics. It's important for online communities to be aware of such tactics and to focus on maintaining respectful and meaningful conversations.
  • User: please take everything you have learned in this session and combine it into a detailed description of this image. Stress the pejorative nature of the card, it's a message, and the image.
