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:
- 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.
- 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.
- You are encouraged to provide a link back to the source of your screen capture in the body of your post.
- 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.
- 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.
- Absolutely no NSFL content.
- Be nice. Don't take anything personally. Take political debates to the appropriate communities. Take personal disagreements & arguments to private messages.
- No advertising, brand promotion, or guerrilla marketing.

And really 'both sides' are bad because we let them be. More attendance and information for primaries and choices would probably be a hell of a lot more palatable in most places.
I agree, the democrat party in particular does give room to socialist policies on a more local level, just look at Mamdani (and hopefully Al-Sayed in a few weeks). If you elect enough of those and get rid of the "nothing ever happens" democrats like Schumer and Jeffreys, you can make real change happen.
Good luck trying to do that on the Republican side, the most you'll do is vote for someone who's slightly less Hitler but still very conservative.
Democratic Party
Don't repeat Trump's poor grammar.
Booth sides need money to win marginal elections. Until we get unlimited money out of politics, we get bullshit corporate bootlicking.
Vote for the best of candidate you can, and demand they legislate away Citizens United and the associated bullshit that is corporate “free speech”.
