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.

So spamming misinformation is ok if you're spamming it to "gym bros" - got it.

Doesn't matter who else is misled as long as the dominant group in the forum gets to experience a teensy vicarious sense of victory over some group they don't like. That's how social media morality works.

I feel bad for the one broke dude/trans dude that was just trying to get a cheap test boost, NGL. The bros on the other hand, ehh, not so much. I'm just being honest.

It isn't gym bros, it is the manosphere that is being trolled.

And frankly, they deserve it.

It really is easier to deal with the human race if you reduce it to a handful of memes and put everybody in one. Redneck racists discovered that enlightened revelation a long time ago. But let's not copy them ok?
