Whats up with the downvotes on the post?
It's the problem with a neutral pics platform.
It's easily assumed you like this and that it is good since you've posted a flattering picture of a fascist.
Personally I don't see a fascist uniform as flattering.
yeah, but it is flattering from the fascists point of view. the downvoters want to stop and hide the propaganda pic, while the upvoters want to get the ugly truth out. it's both valid points.
i think the whole matter would be much less confusing if he was dead.
Some people are sick of politics leaking into what could otherwise be apolitical communities, so that may have something to do with it. This may even be a rule 2 violation, depending upon how you define politician. The dickhead depicted in the post is definitely political as hell, although unelected.
So true.
Photography has always been political.
