Are we supposed to use "CW" for amputees? They're human that seems pretty fucked.
Srsly….
“CW: person existing while being visibly disabled”
Yeah it’s fucked for sure
Both annoyed and impressed at the mod's restraint around adding a Pol Pot emoji.
It doesn't talk about the amputation process tho, so I don't really see the need for a warning. Do we need a warning for going in public and possibly seeing an amputee because it might disturb us to think about what might've happened? I had a classmate with a fake leg in 3rd grade who talked to me about it and I wasn't grossed out. We're adults, this shouldn't be disturbing or abnormal to anyone
There are other things one can encounter in public which may require a CW here, like meat or mentions of some violent acts.

This is my take. Somebody getting amputated? CW for gore. A person with a disability? CW is inappropriate.
I guess my question leftover as someone who never posts is: is there a list of the sorts of things we want CWd? Not to be a lib about it, but I've been very confused many times for what sort of person is helped by CWs at various moments. This is the first though where the CW actually has a very negative effect. So I guess what sort of goal do we have with content warnings is a better question
ok lets be clear, you do not need to CW pictures of amputees lmao. that's just a human, you can see those motherfuckers out on the street.
War must be going smashingly well for Ukraine if they're sending back amputated soldiers to the front line to fight.
Damn it. I wish I had made that my title!
I rewatched that just a few months ago.
Literally not superhuman by the standards of augmentation
Sub-baseline
Some prosthetics can have very specific advantages over what people were otherwise born with, but yeah, for the most part, it's capeshit marketing.
Don't bother calling me until I can get a plasma cannon grafted to my chest
What about a rusty metal SKULLGUN?

That original headline is so fucking ghoulish. It's downright bloodthirsty.
President Zelensky thanks you for your eyes, and your tongue... but, he's afraid, more is required
Over/Under on any of these guys defecting after being thrown back into the meat grinder?
Why wouldn't they jump into the breach? They've got more limbs to lose.
They need legs to jump though.
...Ah, that explains the replacements.
They need legs to jump though.
Imagine a tank with a heads-up display... If you've got a head - you're good to go!
lmfao ukrainian dreadnoughts. Biden signs deal to provide Ukrainians with promethium flamers and arco-flagellant shock troops recruited from US prisons.
In Putlerist Russia, the army is so desperate that it’s sending amputees and disabled people into the front lines to fight
when you're fighting a proxy war against a dangerous enemy, gotta support dem twoops with endless pats on the back.
