While the stroad seem realistic, seeing a pedestrian carrying groceries doesn't seem like americana iconography.

Blocking the road is not a valid form of protest! runs over pedestrian ๐Ÿค

Liberals will kick and scream about the fascism of Tianamen without stopping to ask why the Tank Driver stopped and even tried to drive around Tank Man without success.

The idea that an American civilian could survive getting that close to a military vehicle - that this kind of protest wouldn't be used to justify his murder - is utterly alien to the Western brain.

So much of this image is pregnant with what Americans understand a US police officer would do to an unarmed protester. You'll never see pictures of what happened next, because it flies in the face of the narrative.

Look up the Bonus Army, one of many protests that were brutally stomped on by the US military and police.

It says Times Square. Manhattan is one of the walkable places in the US where carrying groceries is actually something you can see.

Tesla would be screwed the first time they see a new sign. Machine Learning is about learning from the past but if you don't have seen it before you might be screwed. But humans can actually think,. even stop and Google the new sign.

I like the image and messaging. I was thinking of calling them Cybercucks.

Some folks call them Deploreans.

[โ€“] [email protected] 8 points 4 days ago

Both. Not all swasticars are Cybercucks, but all Cubercucks are swasticars.

Somehow I knew that this would be controversial here. It's a very funny meme though

[โ€“] [email protected] 12 points 3 days ago (3 children)

It isn't that controversial actually, seems pretty unified with only a couple people getting upset.

Not Times Square, should be Lafayette Square.
