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:

  1. 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.
  2. 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.
  3. You are encouraged to provide a link back to the source of your screen capture in the body of your post.
  4. 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.
  5. 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.
  6. Be nice. Take political debates to the appropriate communities. Take personal disagreements to private messages.
  7. No advertising, brand promotion, or guerrilla marketing.

That's because ICE are cowards. Wouldn't be surprised if they're purposefully leaving areas under direct gang control alone.

They're goal is fear and intimidation. They are going to every area and doing one or two workplace arrrests so that nobody feels safe. They're not actually ready for a coordinated resistance. No cops are actually trained for anything like that.

They're going after the big shots, the gang strongholds like ... Aurora, CO.

they are, at the very least, not performing these kidnappings in “open carry”/“constitutional” states. For obvious reasons.

They are now leaving farming and roofing guys alone because the Tysons and Blackrocks are getting nervous about labor shortages.
