Fuck, I have to change my opinion on leaf blowers.

@seekingfreedom @Infrogmation @cryptica @sennoma You haven't made any 'maturely' comment so why should I bother?
You don't like AI, that's fine. Me, too. So what?
@wackJackle
@Infrogmation @cryptica @sennoma Yes, why should you bother to receive feedback with curiosity & mutual respect? Why indeed?You ask “So what?” Here is my response:
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.
-
@seekingfreedom @Infrogmation @cryptica @sennoma If, instead of an AI image, it had been a real drawing of someone using a leaf blower against the authorities, would you have made the same arguments?
Think about that instead of trying to accuse me of something here.
@wackJackle
@Infrogmation @cryptica @sennoma It isn’t, so, not the reality we’re living in. -

@seekingfreedom @Infrogmation @cryptica @sennoma 'You are putting comrades in danger.'
I don't and it's laughable that this is your argument. And I agree that this is your only argument.
My credibilty is fine because I answered many people that the image is AI in this thread already. I didn't create it, I just made a funny comment on it and shared it.
There is a video of how to use leaf blowers in the thread for every comrade to see.

@wackJackle @Infrogmation @cryptica @sennoma Okie dokes. To me and many others, it hurts your credibility. Hope you’re right. Muting you now.

@seekingfreedom @Infrogmation @cryptica @sennoma You can't seriously believe that anyone in the world will see this post and then simply go out and use their own leaf blower. That would presuppose that all comrades are toddlers, and I refuse to accept that because I have read Hegel as well as Marx.

@Infrogmation @cryptica @sennoma It isn’t, so, not the reality we’re living in.@seekingfreedom @Infrogmation @cryptica @sennoma Okay, so don't think about it.
Have a nice day.

@wackJackle can you edit this post to let people know the image is ai generated please? We have enough misinformation around as it is
-
@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 @wackJackle they will shoot people anyway. do everything that fucks up the fascists. there will be reprisals. you have to do this anyway.

@Mudlark People are able to scroll down. I've answered many times on this in this thread. There is also a video of what happened in Portland 2020.

@wackJackle Anyone who tries this will get charged for assault by the Feds, which is why best practice is to cover or douse any smoke grenades
@doubledealer @wackJackle if no one does these things, you'll be worrying a lot more about being arrested... in your home, for having any recorded anti-fascist sympathy. assault charges are the last thing anyone needs to worry about right now. the mask is off, class war is on.
-
@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.
@u1l @wackJackle @cryptica @sennoma Yeah. “Serving suggestion”, right?
-
Fuck, I have to change my opinion on leaf blowers.
@wackJackle You might not want to be so quick on that. This is clearly an "AI" image.

@ZDL I know, please read the comments and see the video of how they used it in Portland 2020.

Fuck, I have to change my opinion on leaf blowers.
@wackJackle It also looks like you can load them with cinnamon and render those fuckers useless. 🤔
-
Fuck, I have to change my opinion on leaf blowers.
@wackJackle Pretty sure the best, and almost only, reason to hate them is the two stroke motors most use. The noise, the air pollution, things like that
This one appears to be battery-electric though, so you might be good?
-
Fuck, I have to change my opinion on leaf blowers.
@wackJackle the electric ones are very quiet
-
Fuck, I have to change my opinion on leaf blowers.
@wackJackle in portland they had phalanx, black bloc, people were doing dearrests, people werent just watching idly blowing whistles while three pigs pin someone to the ground and empty a can of fucking bear mace point blank in their face.
you wanna do leaf blowers? you need other people to be willing to protect the person with the leaf blower because the pigs will absolutely fucking focus that person if no one is defending them. i havent seen a single shield wall, i havent even seen an umbrella, people arent even extinguishing or covering gas grenades theyre just hucking them into the no mans land like they their arms can compete with a 40mm grenade launcher 400' away.
this is fun as a meme, super cute, but as advice this will get motherfuckers killed. advise people to actually use any of the tactics learned that make leaf blower guy possible instead of encouraging people to go get murdered while filmed by 1000 cameras to the tune of a thousand whistles.

Fuck, I have to change my opinion on leaf blowers.
@wackJackle The battery powered ones are way quieter than the old gas ones and more lightweight.
