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.

The issue here isn't your about your conscious. The majority of people do use these and those people are being influenced.

Your comment has a sort of fuck you I got mine vibe to it.

No it's not, lol. If people stop using these platforms they will fail. Sounds to me like you're just justifying your continued support of these services and platforms. Defeatist loser mentality.

[–] Clent@lemmy.dbzer0.com -4 points 1 day ago (1 children)

You just assumed I use those platforms which makes you the fool here.

You not supporting evil doesn't stop evil. To try for another approach here since you seem rather dense, evil prevails when good men do nothing.

I'm sure you'll just attack that too becuase what's important here to you is your feelings. Doing something was never going to be an option for you

And what are you doing Mr. Holier-than-thou?

[–] Clent@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Thank you for asking so nicely and with such curtesy and humility after graciously answer my questions.

I actively encourage and warn others to not use these platforms. I also pirate all their shit and share it with those around me who struggle to shake their addiction to the content.

Cool, so the same shit I'm doing. No need to be smug about it.

[–] Clent@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 1 day ago

Not the one being smug. That's you. I am not the one virtue signally. Literally what I pointed out you were doing. I'm not going to tell you to stop or not do it, because you do you. My thing is mocking it anytime I see it. In case it's not clear, I'm not claoming this makes me the better person.
