Too much blame on the individual and not enough blame on the system of oppression but it is funny none the less.

    I agree. Bibi is a symptom, not the actual malady.

        At minimum, it would be necessary to dismantle settler-colonialism in Palestine, meaning an end to the “Jewish state”.

      Same with Trump. They’re tumors rather than the underlying cancer.

      A tumor can still kill you and spread cancerous cells throughout the system, though, so it’s important not to neglect eradication of the symptoms as well as the underlying disease.

        Many seem to believe that if Trump died in office, the situation would return to a normalcy from before his first administration. It’s tiresome, lazy thinking.

      Yeah seriously, I thought that cursors didn’t show in screenshots.

      Also, why is there a cursor in a Tweet? Did they turn on caret browsing or just hit F7 by mistake?

        At first I was like, this is fake. Anybody can just type something and take a screenshot of it as if it’s a real source.

        But it just seems overly careless, like weirdly so. I dunno.

    Inaccessible image of pure text: this post could have been plain text.

    Images of text break much that text alternatives do not. Losses due to image of text lacking alternative:

    • usability
      • we can’t quote the text without pointless bullshit like retyping it or OCR
      • text search is unavailable
      • the system can’t
        • reflow text to varied screen sizes
        • vary presentation (size, contrast)
        • vary modality (audio, braille)
    • accessibility
      • lacks semantic structure (tags for titles, heading levels, sections, paragraphs, lists, emphasis, code, links, accessibility features, etc)
      • some users can’t read the image due to lack of alt text (markdown image description)
      • users can’t adapt the text for dyslexia or vision impairments
      • systems can’t read the text to them or send it to braille devices
    • searchability: the “text” isn’t indexable by search engine in a meaningful way
    • fault tolerance: no text fallback if
      • image breaks
      • image host is geoblocked due to insane regulations.

    Contrary to age & humble appearance, text is an advanced technology that provides all these capabilities absent from images.

    Copypastas count as memes.
