I posted this through Jerboa and filled out the alt text field accordingly.
Could you give me some feedback on it, is it visible for you? I could only see the alt text through a long press on the image in the web client…
EDIT: ofc simply adding it to the post body as well is a solution, but ATM I’m interested in the “integrated” alt text field and how visible that is for others
I’m using Voyager, and I can’t see any alt text. Long pressing does nothing, and obviously I can’t hover on mobile.
Tap on the picture, you’ll see it on the bottom. Tap on that text area and the rest will show.
Formatting seems all goofed up, but it works.
My opinion on the meme aside.
Nope. Tapping the picture just opens it with no text here. Voyager on Android.
That’s what I’m using as well, Voyager on Android.
They say it because it makes them feel better. Deep down they know that their vote most likely means nothing within a system where the duopoly will never allow their power to be voted away. They say things like this to quell their own feelings of powerlessness.
Abstaining from voting won’t fix the duopoly though. What it will do is keep a fascist from power.
All the while the overton window gradually shifts to the far right. We’re at the point where the country is funding a literal genocide but libs still refuse to organize.
I’d say they’d only start if Red Man is doing it instead of Blue Man, but even that’s a stretch.
@Awoo put it better
For the revleft participation in the system is endorsement of it.
You can’t tell people to vote in one election and then tell people that actually it needs to be overthrown and think that’s going to happen 5 years later.
At some point or another you just have to commit to it being broken and build your movement based entirely on the fact that it is broken and can not be supported in any way whatsoever.
You are not convincing anyone that there is a need for revolution by telling them that actually there is a reason to participate in the system that you want revolution against. Maybe that passes among very well educated theory-heads but it does not work when you exit theory spaces and start talking to the masses.
And you’ve done what exactly?
Actually organizing perhaps? Anarchists I know irl aren’t shills for blue maga at least.
