Looks like a photoshop, not a real sticker. Not a lot of pixels, but it doesn’t curve right, reflect or warp with the window. Squared up with tbe image orientation, not the window or defroster lines like a human would apply a sticker.
Everyone grabbing pitchforks all the same.
That's not the point. The OP straight up advocates maiming or killing people in a known Terrorist TTP. But the guy who talks about a window gets banned.
Yeah. I get the point.
My point is that it’s fake and made up to incite strong emotions.
You’re being trolled. Effectively. This is straight up ragebait. This should be thrown in the trash and mocked for what it is.
You think the entire thread is faked?
That’s not what I said at all.
Then how is this rage bait?
Really?
Just because it's a render doesn't mean it's fake. It's probably a preview used at a decal store and it was grabbed from there. Here's an example. I'm only linking to prove what I'm saying. I don't want anyone to actually buy one.
Doesn't make it real. You can render whatever example you want for custom stickers just like a meme. It’s mashing the “easy” button in lieu of a photoshop. Someone made this as ragebait, and it should be treated as such. By your measure I could say I might print a meme as a sticker and now it’s “real” even if I don’t print it.
I've seen worse out in the wild. I absolutely know the types of people who would put this on their cars and think it's clever.
Sure. It could be real if someone printed it. But like I said, that means every printable image ever falls into the same category. It’s a waste of time to think about that. There are gonna be people that either really think what this says or simply slap it on a car to piss people off.
That’s a different rabbit hole. The subject at hand is a render (by default a render isn’t real, right?) designed to be ragebait. Looks like it’s pretty effective considering how many people want it to be real so they can be outraged.
The moderator username is implying that it's a subreddit that is for marketing cringe stickers to suckers
Appropriate. Seems to be effective.
it's real... links have been provided to the reddit post lol
it's clearly an image advocating murder and mods deleting comments advocating vandalism while leaving the murder ones up
whether the image posted to reddit is a photoshop is irrelevant. the issue is which violence the mods chose to promote and which to ban
So your argument is that it’s real because it was posted to reddit and you don’t care if it was a photoshop?
what are you missing about this... the point of interest is WHAT HAPPENED ON REDDIT. which you can see with your own eyes. the important part is 100% guaranteed verifiably NOT a photoshop
tell me, just so we can get on the same page: what do you think is interesting about this image? why do you think most people upvoted it on Lemmy? we definitely have a misunderstanding here.
Verify it, then. Your claim, not mine.
This plainly looks like a fake. I've already explained why.
you must be trolling. I'm genuinely not doing a "gotcha" here. I just need to know, please answer the question: why do you think this post is popular on lemmy? what do you think people find interesting about it?
I think you really are misunderstanding here. I tried explaining it in my terms but maybe if you tell me what you think is happening we can sort this out
or maybe you're just trolling, in which case... well done, you really are doing a great job at pretending you're an absolute fucking moron. ugh sorry I'm really trying to be polite here but you're not making it easy
