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 an image is found to be fabricated or edited in any way and it is not properly labeled, it will be deleted.
  6. Absolutely no NSFL content.
  7. Be nice. Don't take anything personally. Take political debates to the appropriate communities. Take personal disagreements & arguments to private messages.
  8. No advertising, brand promotion, or guerrilla marketing.

We need pirate radio

This is how we got in this mess to begin with. Talk radio, then podcasts.

Well I guess at least some pirate radio would be saying "Did you know it's illegal to say that we should kill the president"

Can't be worse than every station being owned by Sinclair and ClearChannel anyway

Republicans are how we got in this mess. We need to leverage similar channels if they’ve proven to be effective

It's ultimately a both sides issue. The Republicans did this shit and the Democrats did fuck all to stop it.

I'm not saying both sides are the same at all. I'm saying that both sides share blame for the current situation for different reasons.
