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.

It blows younger people's minds, when I mention my grandmother spent time in a concentration camp.
Why aren't they learning about it in school like I did?
Republicans.
I'd like to see a more gradual break down of who doesn't know what. That range is uselessly large. I'd also like to know how the timelines match up with the rise in standardized testing.
edit: Found the study. At least I think I did. I didn't even see a mention of Gen Z. Just comparing Millennials and All Adults.
Imo Holocaust denial really seemed to ramp up as most Millennials were growing up.
Not im not too sure what all Gen Z thinks of it, but I definitely remember a lot of articles and write ups in the early 2000s about how parents were teaching kids innacurate facts or even that it just didn't happen.
