Im just gonna say it.
There is a reason a bunch of white ppl suddenly started telling Black content creators (who were already unfamiliar with alt text) that it's okay to steal their work if they don't use alt text
This is an in house issue for yall.
Work it the fuck out and leave us alone

ABSOLUTELY NOT
This is a great way to completely destroy the cause of ALT.
“We steal from artists” is NEVER the answer. Repost with ALT AND ATTRIBUTION
Or politely ask someone to ALT their work
Threatening people and painting folks that advocate for ALT text as thieves is a horrible strategy.

He was actually trying to alt text but he didn't do it in a way certain people approve of
Is this not literally alt text, just not as the caption??
Like what is the reason?
A performative way to justify it
It's infuriating when people use social justice inclusion ideas as an excuse to be assholes.
I'm pro alt-text, but some days, it's hard for me; it's one more thing that my AuDHD has to deal with, and having to write out a transcription or a description just feels..... overwhelming.
I know that for some people it seems simple. For some of us, it's not.
