A place to share screenshots of Microblog posts, whether from Mastodon, tumblr, ~~Twitter~~ X, KBin, Threads or elsewhere.
Created as an evolution of White People Twitter and other tweet-capture subreddits.
RULES:
- Your post must be a screen capture of a microblog-type post that includes the UI of the site it came from, preferably also including the avatar and username of the original poster. Including relevant comments made to the original post is encouraged.
- Your post, included comments, or your title/comment should include some kind of commentary or remark on the subject of the screen capture. Your title must include at least one word relevant to your post.
- You are encouraged to provide a link back to the source of your screen capture in the body of your post.
- Current politics and news are allowed, but discouraged. There MUST be some kind of human commentary/reaction included (either by the original poster or you). Just news articles or headlines will be deleted.
- Doctored posts/images and AI are allowed, but discouraged. You MUST indicate this in your post (even if you didn't originally know). If an image is found to be fabricated or edited in any way and it is not properly labeled, it will be deleted.
- Absolutely no NSFL content.
- Be nice. Don't take anything personally. Take political debates to the appropriate communities. Take personal disagreements & arguments to private messages.
- No advertising, brand promotion, or guerrilla marketing.

Nah, the guy isn't dumb, he just has zero integrity. He finds ways to reframe arguments to win arguments - that isn't easy, the dude knows his takes are garbage. Every once in a while the mask slips
Someone like Jordan Peterson on the other hand? The dude believes what he's saying, his takes are also trash, but he's so dogmatic in his world view that he can't grasp anything outside them. He's not really that dumb either, he just has issues.
If you want just straight up dumb, Trump is the epitome. He doesn't understand anything - he just has so much charisma it doesn't matter. Try reading his speeches - you might listen to them and think "wtf is he on about?", but without his delivery, it's just incoherent rambling
For an example of an idiot who can sound smart, Elon musk comes to mind. He memorizes facts the way a child does about the specs of their model cars, but he can't apply any of that knowledge
