After Biden's meltdown, the Democrats are hoping to reenergize people with a supposedly "progressive" pick for Kamala Harris' running mate.

The text is quite readable and this seems to be an attention-grabbing poster with some visuals. What's wrong with the text?

Or is it perhaps the content that you have a problem with?

Blind people can't read it. Citations are missing. Author is missing

If you are sighted, feel free to write up a transcription.

That doesn't solve the other two issues

[-] Barx@hexbear.net 1 points 1 year ago

The author is obviously the political campaign that the URLs go to.

It's unclear to me what citations anyone needs. These are easily verifiable facts. I already knew 2 of them and I don't even live in Minnesota. But if you have any trouble verifying any of the things for which you think there should be a citation, I would be happy to show you how to do so.

But feel free to transcribe the image to help blind people.

Tell me you don't know what a citation is without telling me you don't know what a citation is

[-] Barx@hexbear.net 0 points 1 year ago

A citation is source information for a claim. This is why I'm offering to help you source, I.e. verify, any claims here you are having trouble doing so yourself.

I've offered this to you and two others. So far, nobody seems to actually be interested in sources. Hmm.

The citations and author for several of them are right there in the image. Are you visually impaired? Again, I must ask, is it simply the content that you disagree with, but you don't have any actual arguments against it? That's what this seems like to me.
