Systems that profit off the death of children must be dismantled. Governments complicit in genocide are illegitimate.

Hey can you not post images of (probably) dead children without content warning note, like in general? And please stop posting content to !grasweeti@slrpnk.net that does not fit the "Sweet Graffiti and other acts of wholesome vandalism" motto.

Also I think you should check out other communites that fit your style of content like !anarchism@slrpnk.net , !communism@lemmy.ml , !palestine@lemmy.ml or !landback@slrpnk.net.

Kindly direct me to your community guidelines. Going by the title, I believed this fits with Sweet Graffiti and other acts of wholesome vandalism. Protesting genocide in favor of life seems wholesome to me.

The sub came from here: https://slrpnk.net/post/3592640

There's definitely room for a regular graffiti sub (I'm surprised we don't have one) but I get wanting this to fit a specific niche, especially early on while it's getting established.

Other proposed names included Graffiti Zoo and Adorable Vandalism

Edit: also the sidebar says: "A community to share pictures of cute graffiti, stickers, wheatpastes and more."

I don't think there's anything wrong with having a space just for cute graffiti, especially when other places that fit you project exist around the fediverse. And if you want to make a solarpunk graffiti community here, I'll definitely post content to it.

I was wondering - how long generally do you project these?

During rush hour.
