@wackJackle (1) I don't believe in any way that that is real. "Hey, there's a guy with Fucking Leaf Blower for no apparent reason. I'm going to spray toxic gas at him." yeahno. But (2) I appreciate the satisfaction it communicates.
@sstrader Yeah, I already commented in the thread that it isn't real but it conveys a good message and people used it for real in Portland 2020. There is also a video of it in the thread.

@wackJackle thx, we need facts to keep us sane

@wackJackle@norden.social Bad news everyone.
@lunaisadeer many people have already commented on it, also myself. It's unfortunately AI but I shared it because I liked the message.
And leaf blowers WERE used in Portland 2020. There is also a video of it in the thread.

@vladimir_lu you just accidentally boosted some #AIslop. 😕

@wackJackle 😈 It's no worse than what the Whitehouse is spewing out these days. 😈

@wackJackle one just needs to be a little curious and innovative to find new ways to play old stuff haha!

@wackJackle @cryptica @sennoma you could at least add the info that the picture isn't a photograph to your post, to make it clear that the situation shown in the picture didn't actually happen.
Currently, you are spreading misinformation.

@cryptica @wackJackle @sennoma
Yeah. I used to follow on fbk, IMO person has some problems with their love for shitposting over accurate info combined with trying to police their idea of the exact way all resistance should be.
Cool concept, look at the actual video down this thread; the fake AI image is useless beyond getting attention at best.
@Infrogmation
@cryptica @wackJackle @sennoma OP, I understand you feel strongly about the resistance; we all do. Sharing this image seems like an efficient way to spread the message, but it comes at the cost of your credibility. Our word is more important than ever. Don’t compromise it with mistruths, not even little teeny ones. This is not a photograph from 2020. It isn’t real. It may visually represent resistance, but that doesn’t justify promoting it as real. You are putting comrades in danger. Today you feel justified in sharing this; what will you justify tomorrow? On this trajectory, muting you would be protective. Please reconsider. -

Thank you for your considerations.

@wackJackle This has the potential to get someone shot. In Portland they were not so comfortable with shooting someone in the face multiple times and think they'd get away with it. Now the in new landscape they can do just that and claim anything as an offensive weapon. I am not advocating doing nothing but know the risks, which this tip doesn't show.

@byrnensorg Of course, that's just a post that went viral. There is a video in the thread on how they used it in Portland.
Everybody should always calculate what risk they are comfortable to take. That's a given.
Don't put this burden on me.

Thank you for your considerations.
@wackJackle @Infrogmation @cryptica @sennoma I already read the other comments before I replied. The video is not the photo. I am talking about the photo. Is it possible for you to defend the photo without conflating it with the video? Is it possible for you to respond to what I and others have actually stated? I disagree that the video justifies spreading mistruth. You are convincing no one with this avoidant dismissal.

@wackJackle @seekingfreedom @Infrogmation @cryptica @sennoma Reading the comments - if that's slop, it's shit and reduces credibility of the poster.

@seekingfreedom @Infrogmation @cryptica @sennoma I've done that several times. Didn't you read that? I'm not the one who posted the original message. Were leaf blowers used in Portland in 2020, yes or no? Are they therefore a method of defending oneself against the Pig Empire, yes or no? Won't future encounters between protesters and leaf blower carriers unfold as depicted in the AI image? Yes, of course. Would that have been the case with any other real photo? Yes, of course.

@wackJackle @Infrogmation @cryptica @sennoma You are determined to justify your dishonesty. So be it.

@kirakira Yeah, could be, but the point stands because that's what happened in Portland.
@wackJackle I don't think you're getting why people are upset about this. I believed you. I believed the picture. Now I'm skeptical about leaf blower's abilities to resist tear gas - it's an AI picture after all, might as well be a unicorn.
you say "well it really happened in Portland, so it don't matter" - well, share an actual documented case then!
until you do, you're doing a disservice to resistance.

@seekingfreedom @Infrogmation @cryptica @sennoma Thank you for not answering any of my questions/arguments. Your moral sentiment is worthless to me but I really apreciate that you had to give it to me.

@Infrogmation @cryptica @sennoma It’s unfortunate you cannot even choose to respond maturely to disagreement. -

@timon There is a video of it happening in this thread. I commented many times on it already.

@sabrinaweb71 sì, prima si inizia e meglio è. Naturalmente con l'ottica di iniziare subito col piede giusto e non, per esempio, legandosi mani e piedi da qualche nuovo monopolista tedesco o francese.

@imp3tuz well damn. that sucks.

@jan I hadn't considered this point of view: scanning it means it exists. In case of problems, you need to provide the original, signed one. Yes, it makes sense.

@CathyBikesBook I’ll talk Knicks with you any time. They were my team since before Ewing. I switched allegiances in the Paul Pierce era since I moved to MA then. But I can talk Trent Tucker and Bill Cartwright all day.

Lo scudo europeo per la democrazia: la fiaba del cittadino da proteggere e le fabbriche del falso
Lo Scudo europeo per la democrazia viene presentato come un argine a disinformazione e interferenze straniere, ma finirà per istituzionalizzare la censura preventiva nello spazio informativo. Diventano suscettibili di limitazioni contenuti “altrimenti legali” ma “rischiosi”, una categoria tanto elastica da inglobare qualunque contenuto politicamente scomodo. La “difesa della democrazia” comporta la stigmatizzazione del conflitto delle idee come devianza e la costruzione di una filiera di segnalazione, fact-checking e neutralizzazione finalizzata a “tutelare l’integrità dello spazio informativo” e che coinvolge piattaforme online, ONG e istituzioni pubbliche sotto un’opaca regia del potere esecutivo. È un dispositivo che, se attuato, minerà alla radice i diritti fondamentali della libertà di espressione e della libera circolazione delle idee, pietre angolari di una democrazia sostanziale. (Seconda parte)

@fucinafibonacci @betelgeuse93 @giochi Ma non è proprio questo il caso, visto che il gioco di cui parliamo controlli la fazione che ti pare? Qui si sta a pensare male di qualcuno per quello che fanno altri, quando non è il caso.
Piuttosto è più sorprendente che il gioco in questione non sia la serie di Heart of Iron.
La Paradox per incassare grana lo fa già con i DLC, ma almeno molti sono anche buoni.

@sami onwards to modern tongue twisters!
