@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.

@seekingfreedom @Infrogmation @cryptica @sennoma Please read all the other comments and watch the video of what happened in Portland in 2020.
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.

@betelgeuse93 @giochi personalmente non punto il dito. Ringrazio la mia famiglia per non aver tatuato sul braccio la citazione di un videogioco

L’America che non si fa intimidire da Trump: il Minnesota sciopera per dire «basta Ice»
> La repressione violenta condotta da Ice e le derive autoritarie dell’attuale amministrazione Usa trovano un fronte di resistenza anzitutto a Minneapolis, luogo dell’assassinio di Good. Negozianti che chiudono, solidarietà di vicinato, preti e parlamentari che sfidano le manette: la politica non può non tenerne conto

@adriananselmo @vonblubba Perdomani, ho letto e interpretato male il primo messaggio. Non mi sto riferendo a chi deve essere reperibile ma agli altri. Voi siete esclusi.
Personalmente, per me ha senso, visto che il telefono/sveglia mi permette di essere granulare nell'impostazione giornaliera, cosa che una normale sveglia non fa. In più ho risparmiato soldi e salvato un dispositivo dal macero.
Non giudico nessuno, ci mancherebbe. La mia è semplice curiosità.

@fucinafibonacci @giochi quindi come al solito si punta il dito contro i videogiochi.
Uno ha fatto una strage in una scuola, aveva installato Doom, la colpa è del videogioco non che si fosse procurato un arsenale...
-
@stefano_zan @filippodb @emanuelegori @attualita @thegib dunque l'immagine di Trump per mano al pinguino solitario significherebbe che i due stanno dirigendosi verso la loro fine in un inconscio impulso di autodistruzione. Corretto?

@fucinafibonacci @giochi sono di sinistra, e mi piace giovare a Crusader King II, come Civilization e compagnia. Questo articolo del post è fatto male, come se la colpa fosse di paradox o del gioco e non di quelle teste bacate che si radicalizzerebbero in ogni modo.
Poi non ci gioco da un po', ma mi pare di ricordare che puoi prendere il controllo anche di una casata islamica e difenderti dagli europei.
Sicuro si potevano fare unioni miste ed allearsi con i saraceni.

@emanuelegori @attualita ma non è che volesse comprare l'Antartide😳

il capo della polizia di Brooklyn Park (Minnesota), Mark Bruley,ha dichiarato:
"se queste cose accadono ai nostri agenti di polizia,mi addolora pensare quanti membri della nostra comunità sono vittime [dell'#ICE] ogni giorno. Questo DEVE FINIRE":
