Am I the only one who finds these memes hard to read due to the font and color?

OP, I always scroll past your posts bc of this, and I thought you should know in case it's not just me

Unfortunately that is by design. Like a captcha for bot farms. It lets me send these memes to their intended hosts without dealing with iluvhitler6969 telling me he's gonna shoot my dogs or some shit

Wait really? Is it a specially designed font for that purpose? I'd love to learn more

[–] trager_bombs@lemmy.world 12 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Not that I'm aware of, I just noticed that when I did memes instead of just tweeting my thoughts I got no bot push back. I could be conflating coincidence but 🤷🏽‍♂️

Check this out! I'm genuinely surprised

Edit: GPT4 can read it, but I'd guess traditional bots are more likely to use OCR

Yeah, there ain't no way the bot farms are paying for gpt4. Eventually I'll have to find a new adjustment, but I thought it was a neat (albeit difficult to read) trick

Literally toddler brain. YMCA is his Baby Shark. He throws a tantrum in his high chair, so we play his favorite song so he calms down and dances. Remember when he completely halted a Q&A so he could make a crowd listen to Ave Maria 3 times in a row and then just dance to a couple more songs and then left? He's just a spoiled brat toddler, but when he doesn't get his way, he illegally orders firings and kidnappings and deaths. He has this power because we give him this power, and I have no fucking clue why anybody entertains his orders.

It's that Twilight Zone episode where that kid has god powers and disappears people when they criticize him, so the town just does and says anything to appease him even if he's fucking shit up because he's a stupid little kid and doesn't understand that he's fucking shit up. But our stupid little kid president doesn't have god powers. He has brain damage. And it's absolutely insane to me that nobody is seriously talking about this and it's horrifying.

Keep pushing on the Epstein files. It gave him a stroke and got a propagandist killed. It's clearly a sore spot to them.

This guy started popping up on my feed lately and I'm not qualified to analyze his points, here is "Why Trump Acts Like a Toddler"

I totally forgot to get back to you. I watched this video like 12 hours after you linked it. Really interesting. I didn't know that info about his mom. I assumed he had daddy issues, but mommy issues does probably make more sense. I also assumed that he just got everything he ever wanted and never saw real consequences for anything all his life and always got away with lying and delaying.

He sure stands to benefit. One has to wonder.
