And when a Black kid is shot dead by police, they do their best to find a photo of him looking like a back-alley mugger or at least a menacing-looking rapper. You know, so that the reader can imagine the cop fearing for his life.

or give excessive details, of how a "degenerate" a POC is. with a white person its always vanilla, sugar coated to make him "otherwise blameless" life.

If only there had been warning signs, like a tasteless tattoo of a target on his forearm.

The arm on the right is from the kid, you know.

And the boy behind her has the body and stance of a sixty-something who just ran up the stairs.

Honestly a good use of it for once

Rothe@piefed.social · 24 pts · 21d

No, the media should not engage in undisclosed doctoring of photos like that. That is pretty heinous stuff.

Either they shouldn't have used the photo, or blurred him or some shit if they absolutely wanted him out of the photo.

Just think in what other instances they do that to photos without disclosing it.

It's dangerous to be around a suicidal man who considers you his property.

Couple of those kids are clearly adopted.

Yet my ex couldn't adopt because of her bipolar. What the fuck. They give them to these dangerous fucks instead.

The adoption industry is run by Christian fascists.

The adoption industry is run by Christian fascists.

It was literally started by a woman stealing children (either literally or getting the mothers to sign away the kid before they even touch them), so that tracks

Adoption has to be older than humanity 🧐

I'm sorry, but what part of this proves that she was Christian or endorsed by the church?

Bluescluestoothpaste@sh.itjust.works · 3 pts · 21d

The same part that proves i have a goldfish.

Passerby6497@lemmy.world · 0 pts · 21d

she was Christian

It was Mississippi the early 1900s and her dad was a judge, if you think they're anything other than Christian, you don't know shit about history

or endorsed by the church?

You don't have to be endorsed by the church to be a Christian fascist, you potato.
