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.

It's so crazy to me that Europeans and other foreigners buy into propaganda intended for Americans and then get mad at a total fantasy. The America they think they know does not exist. Edit: This is especially annoying when they try to tell us "vote your way out of it," holy fuck

America is huge, some of that fantasy exists, it's just very expensive.

No, it does not exist at all in any context for anyone who is "actually" American and bound to the land. The ultra wealthy are stateless, they can and do live overseas part-time or full-time even if they have American citizenship.

Dude, I live in Seattle, it totally exists for people below billionaire.

What do you mean? I know some somewhat wealthy people, but I don't think middle-class wealthy people aren't dealing with a different layer of the same bullshit
