Save some work, stop after step 2, write Microsoft. Hail Corporate!

You will be taxed the least in the coming Corp wars, little one.

In Warframe there's this debt internment colony called Fortuna you can ally with. The workers there are slaves who are working to pay off their debts. Most of those debts come from them buying expensive cybernetics which are necessary for them to work in the first place. If they can't make their payments, their robotic body parts will be "repossessed". Brilliant critique of capitalism.

Anyway, you can join Fortuna's union and help them with industrial actions against their oppressors. And in a really good nugget of writing, your contact always refers to stealing as taxing. "Go tax their supply shipments, Tenno". The people of Fortuna are so financially abused that their word for theft is "tax". They don't have a word for stealing anymore other than the euphemism corporations use.

But will pay the most subscriptions.

Technically still a hate crime

Literally any 4 panel comic supercedes the swastika.

[–] drathvedro@lemm.ee 51 points 7 months ago (2 children)

That assumes that they could even draw a swastika

[–] Anticorp@lemmy.world 15 points 7 months ago

Those are break dancers.

[–] ziixe@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 7 months ago (1 children)

God damnit ai is used to vandalise buildings now, smh

[–] bjoern_tantau@swg-empire.de 2 points 6 months ago

"A" maybe, but no "I".

[–] ArmoredThirteen@lemmy.ml 49 points 7 months ago (2 children)

This assumes the dipshits making the original tag even know how to correctly draw a swastika

[–] rickyrigatoni@lemm.ee 6 points 7 months ago

We need a badly drawn swastikas community.

[–] Daemnyz@lemmy.ml 4 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago)

The German community has the "Heil Hortler", which are swastikas that are hilariously badly drawn, but I don't think it's on Lemmy yet.

[–] fidodo@lemmy.world 47 points 7 months ago (1 children)

There's a simpler way. After step 2, draw 1 vertical line in the top left box, 2 vertical lines in the top right and bottom left box, and 1 vertical line with a horizontal line in the last box.

[–] fjordbasa@lemmy.world 18 points 7 months ago

What a loss

[–] thisbenzingring@lemmy.sdf.org 19 points 7 months ago (2 children)

3 arrows pointing down and left is also a powerful statement.

It's what was used to cover the swastika

Add in a Kilroy and remind those losers what happens when they try fascism

[–] GraniteM@lemmy.world 10 points 7 months ago
[–] Mango@lemmy.world 3 points 7 months ago

Yeah but that still leaves the idea behind. That's a lingering scent of swastika.

[–] BigBananaDealer@lemm.ee 14 points 7 months ago

[–] general_kitten@sopuli.xyz 8 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Is this the doing crime part of being gay or is that part just existing

[–] general_kitten@sopuli.xyz 1 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago) (1 children)

The pride flag a little bit

[–] Zirconium@lemmy.world 1 points 6 months ago
[–] Krejga@lemmy.dbzer0.com 7 points 7 months ago

I used to draw the outside lines and write microsoft when i used to scribble swastikas in my elementary school notebooks

[–] x4740N@lemmy.world 6 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Or you could just spray over it with one colour then write in another colour

[–] Mango@lemmy.world 1 points 7 months ago

That was magnificent. Who could possibly be mad?

[–] Alsephina@lemmy.ml 5 points 7 months ago

Is this loss

[–] ikidd@lemmy.world 4 points 7 months ago

Looks like a lot of work for a welding tank.

[–] Sphks@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 7 months ago
[–] soggy_kitty@sopuli.xyz 4 points 7 months ago

This won't work if they use thicker pen, which most do

[–] EmoDuck@sh.itjust.works 3 points 7 months ago
[–] Harbinger01173430@lemmy.world -5 points 7 months ago (2 children)

Maybe just say it's the original Hindu symbol rather than the German version and add some four dots? Lol

[–] lseif@sopuli.xyz 4 points 7 months ago

unlikely if it is on an angle

[–] Anticorp@lemmy.world 4 points 7 months ago

Doesn't that face the opposite direction?
