Your post must be a screen capture of a microblog-type post that includes the UI of the site it came from, preferably also including the avatar and username of the original poster. Including relevant comments made to the original post is encouraged.
Your post, included comments, or your title/comment should include some kind of commentary or remark on the subject of the screen capture. Your title must include at least one word relevant to your post.
You are encouraged to provide a link back to the source of your screen capture in the body of your post.
Current politics and news are allowed, but discouraged. There MUST be some kind of human commentary/reaction included (either by the original poster or you). Just news articles or headlines will be deleted.
Doctored posts/images and AI are allowed, but discouraged. You MUST indicate this in your post (even if you didn't originally know). If an image is found to be fabricated or edited in any way and it is not properly labeled, it will be deleted.
Absolutely no NSFL content.
Be nice. Don't take anything personally. Take political debates to the appropriate communities. Take personal disagreements & arguments to private messages.

(this is a sarcastic post meant to highlight the absurdity of some of the “greater good” rhetoric we’ve been hearing, especially around leaving vulnerable populations like disabled people behind in case of revolution, basically accelerationism)

This is the ideal perspective that leads to optimal outcomes for the general public?

Nah, but fighting so hard for something that you forget to... checks notes have basic human rights like healthcare and free education, is ridiculous.

You went so hard on one issue, that you drive half your population to vote for Nazis. Job well done, right?

Certainly made me mad enough to reply all over this thread. This is the kind of conversation that’s really useful, that we’re having now, I think!

So as soon as DC criminals are sentenced for insider trading, illegal deportations, and so on, rewarding ourselves with using words that distract our allies could be a nice treat!

Nobody likes sitting princess, hands in their lap, waiting and waiting for years… but if it earns us a few more minutes of discussion on healthcare, without distraction, I like that trade-off :)

Thanks for coming back & chatting

I also think these are important discussions to have. When i think of American leftists, i think of sensitive guys who get offended on other peoples behalf.

When i think of European leftists, i think of punkers down to 14 years old throwing bricks at police. Americans need to step up.
