People tweeting stuff. We allow tweets from anyone.
RULES:
- Mark NSFW content.
- No doxxing people.
- Must be a pic of the tweet or similar. No direct links to the tweet.
- No international politcs
- Be excellent to each other.
- Provide an archived link to the tweet (or similar) being shown if it's a major celebrity, figure or any politician. If you replace the "x" at their site with xcancel (so it beomes xcancel.com), and you're not on mobile, it will save video. https://web.archive.org/save is another great option. Archive.is is no longer recommended because they remove/alter content.
- If a tweet (or similar) makes a statement of fact, either mark it as "satire" in the body or provide the original source link backing up the statement

MODERATORS
yeah you can't satirize the republicans. they're more ridiculous than whatever funny skit you can come up with.
that's partly why people didn't like Don't Look Up that much. it was supposed to be a ridiculous caricature of the way people tend to avoid uncomfortable truths like climate change. ended up being so similar to the real thing people thought it was too on the nose and obvious. the real world caught up and surpassed the satire.
