    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.

              I’m on the same Voyager version, but tapping the picture just gives me the picture with no text.

              I took a screenshot, but I can’t see a way to embed it - never mind, closing my keyboard gave me the image, attachment, and formatting options back. The screenshot should be here:

                  Yeah, it’s a bit odd, this image is showing for me, but others that I’ve tried to embed in the same way haven’t shown up in the past.

                  I’ll report it to them 👍

          mb additionally putting it in the post body would be a good idea for future posts?

          I’ve seen that a few times on other posts. If there’s text in the body already, the alt text has been separated, but I don’t think there’s a standard yet

      Works perfectly for me accessing an mbin instance through my browser. There’s an “alt” button on the bottom right of the image that displays it

      I don’t see it by default on Sync but if I go into the menu and click view image then the alt text is there.

    They’re right though. Voting and organizing are independent actions. You can not vote and not organize, not vote and organize, vote and not organize, or vote and organize. The liberal wasn’t going to organize no matter what, but at least they voted. If you’re organizing, you can vote, too.

    “Don’t vote because you organizing is better” is a stupid propaganda line designed to help Trump win.

      Or made by delusional accelerationist leftists.

      Or made by leftists, who see the left as a “closed-gate community”, who also don’t organize besides the few reading nights with other theory nerds.

    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.

    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.

    These shitlibs will also go out of their way to defend this genocidal pig online instead of spending that time going out and organizing to take direct action.

      I was in the streets protesting police brutality. I was in the ballot box making sure leftist parties get federal funding and ballot status. I was in the gun store making sure I am prepared to defend myself against right wing and liberal terrorism.

      What the fuck have you done?

      There’s this Unix command yes that repeatedly prints “yes” to the terminal. Well, the GOP is basically the no command.

      (I know, I know, please don’t explain the syntax of the yes command. It ruins the joke.)

    Not sure I get the point of this, why wouldn’t liberals be happy with liberal poster children like Harris? She’s who they’re looking for.

    Combine all of the issues together and figure out which candidate moves the needle in the direction you need the most. In this case to me, Harris moved the needle in the direction I want, while I disagree with some of her points specifically, like Israel support.

    Trump just breaks the needle.

      Harris will move the needle to the right, or at the very best, merely slow down the rate at which the needle moves to the right. The Toupee will pull the needle off and stab people with it.

      Don’t get me wrong, I’m voting for the lesser evil, again, but it is extremely disheartening.
