Those girls look miserable.

They are definitely miserable. Not only are the stuck out in the ~~rain~~ cold with no ~~waterproof~~ jackets, but they also have to listen to Sarah Huckabee.

Edit: corrected my earlier point where I thought it was raining.

The part that gets me is "have to."

[–] ColeSloth@discuss.tchncs.de 3 points 4 weeks ago (1 children)

I agree they're miserable, but they aren't wet and it isn't raining in that picture.

Still, Sarah can GTFO. Then kids damn well didn't want to be around there.

[–] ThePowerOfGeek@lemmy.world 4 points 4 weeks ago

Good point. It looks like it was raining. But probably wasn't still raining when that photo. That poor girl in the right of the photo looks especially cold and miserable. Poor kid.

Not only is this heartless and cruel, but why a dimly lit tent in the middle of a parking lot? It's like the miserable black girls in the back are the focus of the image's optics, which is kinda telling.

[–] atomicbocks@sh.itjust.works 35 points 4 weeks ago

Any camera or phone made in the last 10 years or so would have auto focused and balanced Huckasans face as the closest subject.

This was intentional on the part of the photographer.

[–] its_prolly_fine@sh.itjust.works 17 points 4 weeks ago

Hate to be contrary cause I agree the optics are not great. But, it looks like that because of the photographer. The focus is on the girls, the framing helps this too. The exposure helps the most, SH is shadowed on purpose. It's possible it was accidental, getting 2 subjects in different lighting bothe clear and visible is difficult. I'd still think this is purposeful though.

Those optics are intentional.

[–] poccalyps@sh.itjust.works 55 points 4 weeks ago

Increasing hostility right to left: accepting and showing her misery, stoic in the face of it, eyeing SH like “bitch, hurry up”, then finally “I will personally end you, rascist white bitch”.

Fuck Sarah Huckabee

Hey, I seem to remember an appropriate song by Tay Zonday

[–] solariplex@slrpnk.net 24 points 4 weeks ago* (last edited 4 weeks ago) (3 children)

Never noticed the lyrics, always thought of it as a weird meme. TIL. Also really cool that it's licensed Creative Commons (CC-BY-NC-ND 3.0)

Yeah he had a bad case of 13 year old face + grown ass man voice, but the song is quite powerful

[–] Swedneck@discuss.tchncs.de 2 points 3 weeks ago

tay is surprisingly active and unafraid to state his opinions, it's amazing to see

[–] BeefandSquints@lemmy.dbzer0.com 30 points 4 weeks ago (1 children)

This is the sort of shit poor white trash thrive on.

[–] floofloof@lemmy.ca 6 points 4 weeks ago (2 children)

I don't think Sarah Huckabee Sanders is poor.

[–] Rothe@piefed.social 23 points 4 weeks ago

No, but her supporters are.

[–] BeefandSquints@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 4 weeks ago

No, but the vast majority of her voter/fan base is.
