A place to share screenshots of Microblog posts, whether from Mastodon, tumblr, ~~Twitter~~ X, KBin, Threads or elsewhere.
Created as an evolution of White People Twitter and other tweet-capture subreddits.
RULES:
- 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 a post is found to be fabricated or edited in any way and it is not properly labeled, it will be deleted.
- Be nice. Take political debates to the appropriate communities. Take personal disagreements to private messages.
- No advertising, brand promotion, or guerrilla marketing.

Because that's the platform that needs to hear it
Circlejerk preaching to the choir is fun, but doesn't reach the people who need to hear it
You’re right, we should send Bernie to CPAC. Bet he’ll win over lots of hearts and minds.
I mean... yes
I honestly want to see this.
That's what Teamsters did at the RNC and people were far more angry at Teamsters than Republicans happy at hearing a working class message.
It's better than sending him to a room full of people who already aggrees with him. It's kind of the point
That is the goal in a functioning democracy. That description no longer applies to the US. Our country’s voter base is made up of political illiterates, our new voters get less educated every year, and our elected officials and their oligarch counterparts are running at full tilt in an attempt to normalize and formalize flagrant disregard for our constitution.
Which means it's even more important for charismatic people to talk to the proverbial "other side", because they don't have any other ways to hear the information they don't know they need.
Only if you send him with a fucking machine gun. Although bless him, he would never be into that.
I so wish he hadn't been prevented from being president by the corrupt democrats.
Yeah that's bullshit rationalization. You don't pay nazis to advertise anti-nazi sentiment.
