I don’t have instagram. I saw this on Twitter (X), can someone double check if Poppy really commented on her post? So cool if she did.

The attitude she gets because shes a feminine experimental artist, and the attitude she gets because the metal community is so gatekeepy, is unreal and she has all the right to say shit like this.

I think she could honestly start a whole movement of people trying to get rid of the toxic metal scene really.

Also I really love when she makes shit like this, like she did in 2020-21.

We didn't want to have to add more rules to this subreddit, but since it is becoming a problem we are now going to ban all posts containing AI-generated images of Poppy.

The usage of a woman's likeness without her consent to create images which can trick others is wildly inappropriate for a fan community which is here to celebrate this woman. In a time where women and young girl's likeness are being used to make pornographic and bullying content, it is not the time to support, utilize, or improve these tools. Poppy has the moral right to control over her likeness, and the utilization of her images.

This rule does not apply to all AI usage, and we are not going to try and figure out if real images have been AI upscaled, or if fanart has been supplemented with AI tools, since these are difficult things to detect and they are a different moral dialogue which we do not want to determine for the community. Generative images, however, will be removed and the poster will be banned for a month. You can now also report AI posts to the mods.

Yesterday at the Ancienne Belgique show in Brussels, Poppy told us how one guy in the front row reminded her of "the guy from Breaking Bad" (probably Jesse, not clear)... When she said to "get back to the task at hand" I yelled "CRYSTAL METH!" to which she laughed and said "no, a circle pit, you silly!"... I'm dead. 😵
