The constant changing of text size and occasional sideways words do not help make the message easier to read.

I was about to say, seeing anything like this makes me immediately ignore it. Too long, and too difficult to read or focus on.

I know what you mean yet I do enjoy the design of this poster, it is like something I would see in a Wild West Gazette. But in this day and age I agree this poster is not effective in conveying the political message. Maybe reduce word count, I think text size and sideways words are okay when used modestly.

It's not a live laugh love poster. This is serious shit. There's a time and place, and this aint it.

Also, "amendment" is spelled like that.

I agree with the others that it's a bit too dense. Shortening it up and making it a bit more succinct would help.

Also, one small note (just add the word 'put'):

...kidnapped imprisoned & -put- in centers of detention...

It's a stylistic choice, but I think the & should be read as being between kidnapped & imprisoned

[–] technomad@slrpnk.net 1 points 1 week ago

Good point. I didn't really think of it like that (or see it that way visually), but that would make sense.
