The truly iconic photo comes later when this very bus is set on fire by White Communists.

And when they beat the Black bus driver to within an inch of his life.

I assume they'd just shoot him to death, steal his wallet, and call him a coon for supporting the white supremacist transportation system that worsens climate change by supporting the energy industry with large polluting busses.

The very buses which were touted for being so environmentally friendly just a scant few years ago because owning a car was too capitalist and caused too much pollution. After that, even bicycles will be too capitalist because they're made of metal and rubber, which also pollutes, and Copenhagen will become the next epicenter of White Supremacy because poor colored peoples are too fat to ride without collapsing the spokes.

Which sounds like maybe happening in the coming few days. This is where i'd normally say it's time to buy a couple more boxes of ammo, but there's none left.

A lot of mfgs. Have a 2 year backlog now, and it gets worse every day as orders come in.

So if political ads are allowed on Seattle Metro Buses, I'm sure they wouldn't mind a Trump 2024 bus or a Hitler did nothing wrong bus.

Here is a way to sanitize links to Twitter:

  • https://github.com/zedeus/nitter/wiki/Instances

The reason you should not link directly is because the embedded tweet loads tracker elements into the browser of anyone who opens it. Very similar to what happens with Facebook Like Buttons. This means that they then have insight into who specifically is viewing the post even if it’s the embedded version (because the video loads from their servers).

Screenshots are another way to avoid this for text and image posts on Twitter and other social media. You can also download the video from the tweet using this:

  • https://youtube-dl.org

Then you can repost to any of these locations with a link in the description back to the source tweet (this does not leak info to Twitter and gives people the choice to visit the source):

Indeed, I wrote the following copypasta. Feel free to use it!

"Don’t Link News Articles

Archive Link to deny publishers revenue they don't deserve:

I'd recommend always using archive links. My favorite service at the moment is:

I'm not going to talk about why BLM are retarded clowns, we all know.

But man, is that ugly. Who did that? The kid who sat behind me in 8th grade biology? I swear to god, they always make people look bad when they try to "amplify minority artists". Or black people have potatoes for hands according to these libs?
The placement is god awful, it literally lacks any form of composition or thought into the shape of the bus. It's ass level "art".
Then again, these are the people trying to tell you rap about genitals is music and breathlessly screaming is poetry. The assification of culture and public taste continues, thanks to libs using minorities. THANK YOU.

The usual defence from these kinds of shock 'artists' is it's deliberately ugly, because not conforming to any form of instinctual aesthetic standards that require actual skill or talent to pull off is 'a brave and stunning stand against society' if deliberately you go out of your way to ruin them rather than demonstrating you suck too much to live up to them if you try.

But the common aesthetics that require little talent are all conspicuously not 'subverted', like using bright pleasing colours instead of dull grey-browns and smooth colour gradients from a spray can rather than haphazard smudgy colour transitions.

Because blacks can only read graffiti? The amount of disrespectful pandering is it obscene levels. Why are blacks okay with this?

Yes, I've noticed this trash "art style" is becoming more common/"mainstream". Just like what they did with psychedelic hippie shit when I was a kid. See: The Banana Splits
