The difference is "100% Made in the USA" does not usually offend most people (it may do if you find it written on a twisted piece of metal where your village used to be)

On the other hand "All USA , no foreigners made this" might offend some.

"No Belgians were involved in making this product" might be found to be more offensive. Yet consistent with "100% Made in the USA".

The distinction is in what they are broadcasting with their message.

Can you share why it would be offensive to not want to pay for LLM produced content in this context? Who might this offend? And why would it offend them?

I'm not "anti clanker" per se but I also don't have strong feelings about when and where this appliance is used. It is an appliance and tool, not a person, not a consciousness. For those who prefer machine generated content, that is a preference one can have.

		I don't think I ever suggested that it would be offensive to not want to pay for LLM produced content. I certainly don't think that it should be offensive. I have only been noting that declarations of position that come across as moral judgements of others can offend people.
