I'm going to downvote this post ... after I upvote it twice

then_three_more@lemmy.world · 30 pts · 260d (2 replies)

So you're going to down vote it.

Upvote 1 adds an up vote

Upvote 2 removes that up vote

Down vote 1 adds a down vote.

Net result -1

Context matters!

I'm pretty sure that's still a downvote. At least on any of the apps/front ends I've used.

Who said it is also important.

Honestly though? Regardless of who said it, it already sounds like bad advice to me.

Yeah don't go to the urologist who said that

Don't judge a book solely by its cover.

Jack of all trades, master of none. But often times better than a master of one.

Incomplete it criticizes joat. Complete it praises joat. Funny.

I love the NRA. I've been a member for years now.

(I sure hope no one takes this out of context)

How dare you associate yourself with the No Rabbits Association! Don't you know how cute rabbits are?

I would subscribe to misquotes.

The guy in the first 2 panels must be from the Goodspeed family, that jaw!

Maybe Gary's cousin?

Either post the text (which is significantly easier than this) or shut up, you have eyes why not do it yourself?

kkj@lemmy.dbzer0.com · 6 pts · 260d (3 replies)

It's a copypasta, so they aren't actually putting in any effort.

VieuxQueb@lemmy.ca · 3 pts · 259d (2 replies)

OP is "Blujayooo" the cartoon is signed by "Jay Yoo", I'm going to think this might be OC ?

lmmarsano@lemmynsfw.com · 3 pts · 259d

Good point. I mostly disregard the poster when I notice the content lacks anything accessible. I hadn't considered the possibility this is entirely original without a link to accessible alternative.

kkj@lemmy.dbzer0.com · 2 pts · 259d

I was talking about the person complaining about the lack of transcription. They post that same list of issues on tons of threads.

lmmarsano@lemmynsfw.com · 0 pts · 259d

Nope: a transcriber burying text elsewhere in the comments making the user have to hunt for it is not proper alt text. Proper accessibility demands the post is accessible.

The moderator @lawrence@lemmy.world seems to prefer removing critical comments over accessibility.
