Space Hobo@juddlegum Please CW this image.
Justin Derrick@spacehobo @juddlegum It's probably crossposted from twitter, so Content Warnings likely aren't supported.
Chris ElyEditing is supported here. You can add a CW when requested, and the author should do that.

@tcely @spacehobo @juddlegum The fact there has been no reply from the author tells you everything you need to know about their commitment to Mastodon.
@JustinDerrick @tcely @juddlegum I dunno if I need everyone to have "commitment to Mastodon". I just thought it would be an easy request to satisfy, and an obvious case to justify.
@spacehobo @tcely @juddlegum Given what an outrage-amplifier the birdsite has become, and how the owner keeps un-banning fascists & misogynists, plus the dramatic rise in racist rants after he took over due to him firing everyone responsible for 'community safety', I have a low opinion of anyone who remains there.
@JustinDerrick @tcely @juddlegum I share your feelings, and I'm dismayed as well, but understand that audiences need to move before the larger voices can.
I'm pretty judicious in the stuff I grab from bird.makeup, but it pains me that I have to at all.
But honestly, all it takes is a quick edit and a CW of "Nazi symbols" and save. No step three.
wanderer_j@spacehobo @juddlegum Respectfully, why? These people exist IRL and don’t cover up when out in public. They are a painful reality, and I don’t see what good it does to hide from them. The more decent people see they are among us, the more motivated they should be to vote BLUE!
zeruch@ev_rider_j @spacehobo @juddlegum I personally think there is an overabundance of caution with CWs. At some point you can't just protect oneself from every possible thing one might find unpleasant.
That doesn't mean that there shouldn't be any, just that there seems to be a tendency to overcorrect on things that folks should generally understand exist.
