@pbump Hey Philip, can you please add descriptive text to your images (alt text) so people who use screen readers can also take part? (And lots of folks on the fediverse – me included – don’t boost images without alt text and I’d love to boost this one.)

Here are some good examples with a link to a useful guide at the end:

Thanks :)

Very sucky.

@pbump I’m concerned that “domestic Islamist extremist” is called out specifically but not call out for Christian Identity, or other religious fundamentalism.
