AccidentalRenaissance is for photos that look like Renaissance paintings.
This means that they look like Renaissance art in their composition, their coloring, their saturation, the angle of the scene, the types of settings, etc.
๐ Must be a photo. Not a meme, drawing, art, ai-generated or ai-enhanced image, screenshot, low-effort post, meta posts, video, or anything else but a photo.
๐ Must be SFW. No gore, porn, extreme violence, blood, corpses, or similarly disturbing content. Absolutely no pornography, even if it's "tasteful".
๐ Comments must be civil. No slurs of any kind or using words to insult, demean, harass, or abuse other individuals or groups.
๐ The Renaissance part (not the photo itself) must be accidental to the photograph. In other words, no photos of Renaissance fairs, people dressed in medieval/Renaissance clothes, etc.
๐ NO influencer selfies, professional photoshoots with watermarks, any type of OnlyFans-like content. We are not the place to work your side-hustle.
๐ธ If you know who the photographer is, give them credit in the comment section. This is the only type of self-promotion we allow.
๐ฉโ๐ฆฏ Alt-Text for vision-impaired users in the post body or in the comments is highly encouraged. Just pretend you are describing a photo to someone on the phone.

What are the actual results from this? Hint: almost nothing, immigrants are getting kidnapped just the same. The only way this is helpful is by bringing like-minded people together, but this alone doesn't do anything, people need to organize and do something. First steps are physically block the gestapo from entering buildings, destroying their property, make them ashamed and afraid, etc. This is happening in some cases already, I've heard of tires being slashed when the idiots leave their trucks unattended during a raid. Y'all need to organize and learn from these people, do more petty sabotage like this. It bands people together and buys you time to organize for something bigger.
Currently the US empire is involved in a literal genocide and is keeping billions of people poor and hungry on purpose, and is exacerbating the impending climate catastrophe. Some vulnerable individuals in the empire itself suffering is bad, don't get me wrong. But you are significantly underestimating the harm being done right now, by focusing on what's happening just in your country without seeing the broader context.
