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.

Nazi's only really used one style of swatiska. It's not too hard to differentiate if you don't knee jerk. Any Hindu and Navajo person really only needs to avoid one specific style.

Can you imagine being these guys as Nazism is talking root in Germany?

Vote Number One to Change the Team Name: No, fuck that! We came first, and those German assholes can't steal our cool symbol!

Vote Number Two, A Little Later: Okay, I think maybe we should go ahead and change the name of the team.

Behind the Bastards did a really good two parter on the history of the Swastika and similarly shaped symbols. It was used a crazy number of time before the Nazis took it.
