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.

Does the EU not have any sort of rule or directive against trying to vote the same thing 12345 times? Heck, IIRC even the US has that one.

They just keep renaming it and slightly changing it so it's never exactly the same.

Friggin' Theseus's Chat Control.

The same thing? I thinks so

But nothing stopping you to charge it a tiny bit and try again

If the US has such a rule then it's not effective. Look at how many times the GOP tried to kill the ACA (or at least pass pointless statements denouncing it). It was at least into the 50s. Probably more than that. Instead of trying to pass useful, practical laws, politicians played the same theatrics over and over again.

did they officially vote on it? Often they try to find their majority before the vote and if they dont get it, they wont vote on it.
