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.

πŸ‘‰ 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.

πŸ‘‰ Must be SFW. No gore, porn, extreme violence, blood, corpses, or similarly disturbing content. Absolutely no pornography, even if it's "tasteful".

πŸ‘‰ Comments must be civil. No slurs of any kind or using words to insult, demean, harass, or abuse other individuals or groups.

πŸ‘‰ 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.

πŸ‘‰ NO influencer selfies, professional photoshoots with watermarks, any type of OnlyFans-like content. We are not the place to work your side-hustle.

πŸ“Έ If you know who the photographer is, give them credit in the comment section. This is the only type of self-promotion we allow.

πŸ‘©β€πŸ¦― 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.

I'm hoping the amount of people whose first thought was "you missed" outweighs the number who are upset.

Still would have preferred no assassination attempt.

I’d have preferred justice to be doled out to the traitor like it is to the black guy with a dimebag.

All drugs should be legal. Hopefully someday we will be able to vote for a political party that respects our bodily autonomy to put what drugs we want in our own bodies.

Wow, talk about missing the point.

Death is too easy for this man, he should suffer in prison for the rest of his life.

He needs isolation and to be alone and forgotten.

He's already two years older than the male life expectancy in the US. He wouldn't last long enough in a prison to be forgotten.

That was my first thought… i know bad but still…

I would have preferred no attempt, but if it was going to happen we would all have been better off had it succeeded.

Not sure of that. If the GOP campaign engine was able to play it well, they could have turned Trump into Jesus 2.0 for the Christian nationalist movement, and retained the fanaticism of the movement while switching over to a better useful idiot who was easier to manage. Part of the problem of Trump is that he is difficult to control, and his voracious ego keeps driving him to make poorly-considered policy and publicity decisions. (Remember the White House feeding McDonalds and Wendys to the Clemson Tigers. Crap like that is continuous around Trump.)

The Michael Flynns and Roger Stones want someone as charismatic as Trump, but who is easier to placate.

The better thing would be for Trump to keep doing public appearances while getting more and more demented and banal, which will toxify the pure hate speech with grumpy old man rants. Then when he quits or dies, there's no resurrection and new church, and the GOP will have to find themselves a charismatic leader from the cold again.

I would prefer no fascists.

I'm personally hoping that a lot of people start thinking "this looks awfully staged and fake."

Cause it really does.

Let's see:

  • Trump panicked and ran last time he thought he got shot at, this time he remains on stage for over 15 minutes.
  • SS doesn't immediately remove him from the stage
  • Nobody runs in the crowd, they all just stare at their God King
  • Mixed, nonsensical reports (stfu about a teleprompter his bleeding ear was away from the podium)
  • Shooter was 400 feet away, with a completely clear view, that the SS somehow missed or excluded from their zones? (Uh? What?)
  • No crowd panicking and fleeing from gunshots. OK, sure. (Just needed to reiterate motherfuckers absolutely frozen)

Something is strange, for sure. But I've never been shot at in a crowd so what do I know. Maybe everyone does stand around slackjawed.

I agree with you. His ability to stand up and fist pump would have never happened with a credible threat. He would have been folded up and shoved in a limo, then full speed blasted out of there.

This entire thing looks completely set up and staged.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 months ago

I dont actually believe it was staged. But, as an American, I've seen plenty if mass shooting videos. Everyone is always running in a panic. These people were acting like a bunch of skin suits.
