I definitely would never suggest that anyone might be able to look up the bolts normally used in these poster holders by city and/or transit company and buy a tool to help them assist their local transit workers with these displays.
Or that there might be plenty of tools that might be used to split an image into a large print over multiple pages.
Well that last one is called a posterizer
Shock and gasp! Don’t you realize the horrible trouble someone could get into with that information? The type of trouble that someone might avoid by dressing as a generic blue collar worker? The kind of trouble that might replace advertising with art, guides to privacy, or even information on how to resist our benevolent corporate overlords?
I tell you, I’m completely terrified of the trouble someone like you so casually sharing such information might cause!
Someone might make friends with a local print shop and run anti-marketing campaigns against the shareholders! Won’t someone think of the shareholders?
Just imagine the terrible problems a coordinated group sharing information about how to do these things could cause, especially an international one. International people subverting advertisements like some sort of subvertisers-international.net
You can put fuck on public ads?
If you buy the right key and blend in, you can put whatever you want to in those panels.
It appears to be a bus stop in London.
Advertising in UK is mostly self-regulated and for it to be removed by someone else it requires that someone files a complaint.
The word fuck is usually not allowed in public advertising, but it’s not explicitly forbidden. The context and target demography is taken into account when the Committee of Advertising Practice (CAP) evaluates if anyone could be offended.
Also the group doing this isn’t paying for ad space. They’re just using it. ;)
It’s absolutely pathetic that some people (non conservative Nazis) are still on that fucked up platform. It’s disgusting and they are blatantly supporting and funding this Nazis shithead

By paying for the blue mark, which was once only given to confirmed publicly visible personalities.
It’s literally pay-to-win.
And who else is paying for those marks? Mostly those fucking bot farmers who run fake accounts with techbro things and keywords – crypto, NFTs, “web3”, dropship, airdrop, etc – and then flood and insinuate themselves as random comments on a random Japanese account.
The majority of people that use Twitter are just everyday people that literally don’t follow news or politics apart from the random stories that catch there eye on Twitter. If all of the left wing reporters and commentators left the platform it would literally just be Nazis and everyday people. (Which is what is happening). And the only stream of “news” coverage people would see is Nazi shit.
The issue is not with individual people deciding to support a Nazi owned platform. The issue is that the main form of online discourse is allowed to be owned and operated by a single billionaire Nazi.
Leftist that expect other leftist to leave a platform that reaches the most people are not being strategic or helpful. You have to meet the masses where they are at. You post leftist propaganda in the town square, even if the town square is owned by Nazis. You don’t post the propaganda in your leftist only safe space and expect people to be exposed to it.
By all means, leave Twitter for personal reasons. Harassment, mental health, etc. But don’t cry about leftist aggitators remaining on the platform.
Twitter is far larger than anything their “support” could be doing. It’s the equivalent of being upset at the guy not using a paper straw and saying that they’re the problem with the climate.
Complacency and apathy from a Lemmy.ml user. No fucking surprise.
If a Nazi is allowed to own a major platform then our only recourse is to delete our accounts. Because they aren’t going to stop a Nazi from owning it. Laws aren’t going to change to undo the purchase. Musk outed himself as a Nazi and now the only thing left to do the burn the platform.
This apologist centrist position is disguising and only enables the oppressor.
Yeah. Keep trying to solve the problems of capitalism with your consumption habits. That’s essentially what you are advocating for.
How is understanding that you don’t want to limit your audience when spreading leftist propaganda “apathetic”? I’m not talking about random individuals. I’m talking about prominent leftist journalist and commentators that still use the platform to counter right wing narratives.
Like, seriously, what is the end goal you are trying to achieve by shaming anyone still using the platform to spread leftist propaganda or counter right wing narratives. Do you really think it’s better if all those people leave? Like, suddenly when an insignificant number of journalist and commentators leave the platform will fall apart? That’s delusional.
Being realistic about the location of where the masses are at and how to best spread propaganda to them is not “centrist”. It’s being realistic about the state of media and not just leaving to virtue signal to other leftist.
The masses are only on these platforms because the people they want to follow are on there. It’s absolutely ridiculous thinking that if all the content creators would switch platforms that people wouldn’t follow them.
Anyone left on that platform is actively going against deplatforming Nazi Musk and is hindering any actual discussion of progress in politics and human rights.
Countering right wing narratives doesn’t work on platforms they control. It’s only keeping their spaces legitimate and increasing their revenue.
Dude. The people that normal people follow to be on those platforms are celebrities, sports players, and artists. You are extremely disconnected if you think that leftist journalist and commentators are what are keeping people there. Seriously.
Are you purposely misunderstanding my comment? I literally started by saying why I understand why prominent leftist remain on it. The audience that they are trying to reach are ON TWITTER. Why would they post only to blue sky? So they can get 100 replies from radlibs telling them they should leave Twitter?
Yup and every one of those celebrities, sports players and artist left on that platform are also enabling and propping up the Nazi platform just like the left wing politicians that refuse to leave thinking they are actually reaching anyone on a platform that is controlled by a Nazi and that can shadow ban and control your visibility.
Like I said before you can’t reach out and convince Nazis on their own platform. It’s a rigged game and the idiots are still on the platform jumping through Nazi hoops instead of achieving anything.
Again, what is your proposed alternative? That they leave the platform with the most people on it (the exact normies they are trying to reach) and…
What exactly? How are you expecting leftist propaganda and narratives reach the people.
Like, you can disagree if it’s effective or not. But you have to actually offer an alternative that you believe is more effective at reaching normal people.
If you’re just being critical but admitting there is no alternative then your criticism is literally just virtue signaling and useless.
Twitter popularity wouldn’t even see a significant figure on the graph if leftist journalist and commentators left it. Let’s not pretend them posting is “supporting Nazis”.
