I'm just gonna say let's call a spade a fucking spade. Especially if there were two spades done in succession based on the reaction of the first spade.

but i heard about this thing called a club that's kinda like a spade and looks kinda like a spade so they were clearly clubs and you're just seeing the playing cards out of context 🤷♀️
Everyone needs to look up the history of the word over a century. Meanings change and are used differently in our world today.

No way am I demeaning people’s perception of the phrase. This is explanation why the phrase is used today. https://www.phrases.org.uk/meanings/call-a-spade-a-spade.html
I don't see anything wrong with this phrase, based on the link you shared. It's pretty common knowledge that the N-word is completely etymologically distinct from the word used in the phrase and they're not related at all.
Can't spell it properly myself, cause my phone keyboard isn't in german atm, but hitlergross sounds like a german propaganda nursery rhyme for little kids
That's nice thank you The War Llama, but people really need to stop posting pictures without ALT text. Bluesky has become very unfriendly for blind and low-vision users.
User setting can turn on ALT text option, so that every time you post an image, you have to write a descriptor, which helps people with visual impairments.
Very easy to do - would be an amazing Must Have feature... That would improve accessibility and really annoy the anti-woke mob ;)
Before I met my wife, more than a decade ago, I didn't either. Other than patting the odd off-duty guide dog (DO NOT DISTRACT THE DOG WHILE ITS HARNESS IS ON, FOLKS) I'd never had much of an encounter with a visually impaired person. I still make mistakes. All we can do is learn and be better.
(I wish Alt Text reminders were a setting that all communication apps had turned on by default, because it's not on everyone's radar. For now, though, I'll settle for periodically nudging people to activate it.)
I know. My wife is visually impaired. I completely agree with your point, but I still try to help when people don't bother, because at least that way the images become accessible to people like her, you know?
Meanwhile #apartheidbaby 's grandparents were card carrying Nazis in South Africa ans his creepy dad said he is fulfilling his destiny, but sure we are overreacting...
Your ex father is a Nazi we all know that. His views on the demographic are well known and since he mentioned Greece's demographic issue, I am sorely tempted to invite him to the beautiful village of Meligalas where we have a water well that was used in the Civil War to drown fascists in
High new friend! Gay “62” year old here. I am a Blue Dot in this Sea Of Red! I am so old that I did not understand anything bad about the spade reference? I feel like I cannot keep up with all the changes with what one can and cannot say! I was raised with Yes Maam Yes Sir? Imagine my fear!❤️🧡💛💚💙💜
I was blessed with a wonderful father. I'm sorry you weren't, but then you have proven you don't need him. I'd be proud if you were one of my children.
You’re awesome. I hope someday you inherit your dad‘s money and do some good for the world. I believe you could. You give me hope. Grateful for you 🩷💙🩵💜🧡💛💚❤️
I really don't understand what happened to him. Was he always like that? Was he just good at pretending in public?
Is there any hope that some sanity will finally "infect" him somehow and maybe even say sorry for the way he treated you?
He was never good at pretending, people just saw what they wanted to see. Dork Maga was always a fake, now running the largest scams in world history, people have been saying it for a decade. First time I'd ever heard of him was when Thunderf00t made a video on the hyperloop scam like 9 years ago.
It is the unfortunate truth for many billionaires. Even when they have enough money to live comfortably for thousands of years, they keep collecting money and power and everything around them serves this purpose. They don't see that life is short, and what they have accumulated will be lost anyways.
I think thousands of young people surrounding Tesla showrooms around the country might send a message. Peaceful protests with everyone carrying placards of his Nazi salute. But alas, I think our cell phones have made people too apathetic… not when I was young.
All that needs to happen is that people don't buy his cars or use twitter. Corporate America needs a leson on retaining a spine. No customers = no business.
His palm faced downward, not upward—unlike a true gesture of offering, especially with an outstretched arm. Yet people praise Musk, the “genius,” as if unaware of the gesture’s meaning. Sheep, always ready to excuse him, no matter what he does.
omg i litch only just got off twitter, (cuz ig im just a masochist 🫠) and yay! clearpilled takes! and thank fuck ur eating it up on here girl, you r so powerful!!
Another thing about this. The bloody crowd cheered for it. Do you know who cheers for a Nazi salute? Frakking Nazis. That's who. It is getting hard to see a difference between MAGA and Nazis. And for the MAGAts upset with me calling them Nazis, either fix your compatriots or you're a collaborator.
I accept that under the condition that they are AWARE, one of them is, in fact, a Nazi. If they don't know, they must cut sling load as soon as that information is available.

⚙️♿ Go to Settings → Accessibility and turn on, "Require alt text before posting."
(Figured I'd share here since it's relevant. 😊)

Elon Musk stretches his right arm, and everyone jumps over it. Welcome to the new
Attention regime."
They want us all to collectively pretend that we didn’t see what we saw.

he's probably a spade
(and he's definitely not being a spade because of autism)

yes, it is that easy.
