AccidentalRenaissance is for photos that look like Renaissance paintings.

This means that they look like Renaissance art in their composition, their coloring, their saturation, the angle of the scene, the types of settings, etc.

๐Ÿ‘‰ Must be a photo. Not a meme, drawing, art, ai-generated or ai-enhanced image, screenshot, low-effort post, meta posts, video, or anything else but a photo.

๐Ÿ‘‰ Must be SFW. No gore, porn, extreme violence, blood, corpses, or similarly disturbing content. Absolutely no pornography, even if it's "tasteful".

๐Ÿ‘‰ Comments must be civil. No slurs of any kind or using words to insult, demean, harass, or abuse other individuals or groups.

๐Ÿ‘‰ The Renaissance part (not the photo itself) must be accidental to the photograph. In other words, no photos of Renaissance fairs, people dressed in medieval/Renaissance clothes, etc.

๐Ÿ‘‰ NO influencer selfies, professional photoshoots with watermarks, any type of OnlyFans-like content. We are not the place to work your side-hustle.

๐Ÿ“ธ If you know who the photographer is, give them credit in the comment section. This is the only type of self-promotion we allow.

๐Ÿ‘ฉโ€๐Ÿฆฏ Alt-Text for vision-impaired users in the post body or in the comments is highly encouraged. Just pretend you are describing a photo to someone on the phone.

Looks like a boiler explosio.

[โ€“] acockworkorange@mander.xyz 0 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Couches and other furniture strewn around. I think the strings are concrete reinforcement rather than boiler tubes.

[โ€“] Madison420@lemmy.world 0 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Have you seen Indian factories? Lots are just packed full of random shit that's been there since the 20s.

[โ€“] IAmNorRealTakeYourMeds@lemmy.world 0 points 11 months ago (1 children)

It isn't even in India.

at some point by chance you should have made a correct statement.

If I ask how many people are in the picture, you will probably be unable to count correctly

[โ€“] Madison420@lemmy.world 0 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Everyone knows that.

Point to where I made an inaccurate one.

And you'll be unable to understand comparison apparently.

[โ€“] IAmNorRealTakeYourMeds@lemmy.world 0 points 11 months ago (1 children)

You are aware that India and Palestine are different countries.

[โ€“] Madison420@lemmy.world 0 points 11 months ago (1 children)

I'm aware I've been in factories in both and they're both extremely similar. So are you aware for a comparison they don't need to be the same country. They asked for context, the context is it looks like a destroyed factory with a low pressure boiler damaged in Gaza likely by the IDF.

What more do you want and why are you being so goddamn rude?

[โ€“] IAmNorRealTakeYourMeds@lemmy.world 0 points 11 months ago (1 children)

you keep bringing the boiler.

maybe you are too high to realise (judging by your username).

but it really sounds like you are trying to shift the blame of the explosion to the boiler. which you keep doubling down with. and also being a bit racist about it. by insinuating that it looks like india, and that explains why its all so messy (bombs usually make a mess).

It's a literal war crime, right in front of your eyes, made by the IDF. there's a literal dead body in there. with people desperately trying to rescue the body.

yet you keep bringing up the boiler, like what? maybe if they maintained their boilers better the bomb wouldn't have hit them?

or are you literally questioning if it is an actual war crime or just dumb indians who are messy and dirty?

at the most lenient interpretation you are trivialising the death of an innocent person in the middle of a genocide. which scale will only be known once the survivors are counted, with estimates currently hovering between a third or a half a million. and those who aren't dead are currently starving in a man made famine.

please take a moment to consider your intentions, and how your comments are read.

Yes, how perceptive of you.

Nope. But you might be too dumb to realize you never finished your point or a sentence for that matter.

Not at all, it was probably by a bomb. I don't know that part so I didn't add context about it. What I know is my experience and I will offer that. It's not at all racist to say factories in a region of the world look similar, you're really reaching to try to make me out to be a bad person.

Probably a war crime yes, where do you see me denying that? Nowhere? Go figure, maybe that isn't now nor has it ever been my point.

You're off your rocker boss.

[โ€“] IAmNorRealTakeYourMeds@lemmy.world 0 points 11 months ago (1 children)

that's why you are a disingenuous troll,

"Probably a bomb"

the fuck are you talking about.

it was a bomb,

you're probably a zionists hasbara troll trying to blame Gazas for their genocide.

[โ€“] Madison420@lemmy.world 0 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Why? You need a subject for that sentence.

You know that for sure? Because I do not which is why I said probably not certainly.

you're probably a zionists hasbara troll trying to blame Gazas for their genocide.

And you're probably one of those people who reacts first then reads and finds out later they are overreacting and drawing conclusions from nothing but your feelings. Enjoy delving into my profile to find out how obscenely incorrect you actually are.

That said, don't let me stop your outrage, clearly you've got something else cooking and you're conflating the two. Be upset, don't be an absolute asshole.

I literally showed you the source of the image and it was about a bomb.

you're just a denial troll.

And I admit I am wrong in one thing

you are a hasbara trolls.

[โ€“] IAmNorRealTakeYourMeds@lemmy.world 0 points 11 months ago (1 children)

it's an Israeli airstrike targeting civilians, the one at the bottom is dead.

[โ€“] Madison420@lemmy.world 0 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Yes that didn't change my point, low income areas with work areas have tons of random shit jammed in them. Seats and couches are not uncommon in said factories so it would be weird to base a conclusion on that.

[โ€“] IAmNorRealTakeYourMeds@lemmy.world 0 points 11 months ago (1 children)

lol, what's your point,

that during an Israeli bombing targeting civilians, a boiler coincidentally exploded at the same time?

just admit you were wrong.

[โ€“] Madison420@lemmy.world 0 points 11 months ago (1 children)

That it looks like a boiler explosion. It's not but it does look like a destroyed vernacular factory.

A. What is it you think I'm trying to be right about. B. What is it you think I'm factually wrong about. C. Why are you being such an asshole?

[โ€“] Madison420@lemmy.world 0 points 11 months ago (1 children)

And you're rude and bad at spelling, any other keen insights you'd like to ignore social conventions to drop on us?

[โ€“] IAmNorRealTakeYourMeds@lemmy.world 0 points 11 months ago (1 children)

typing on the phone is hard

but apparently, admitting a mistake is harder for some people.

[โ€“] Madison420@lemmy.world 0 points 11 months ago

Proofreading is harder apparently.

Again, what am I wrong about. I asked you specifically and you've ignored me so far but keep bringing it up. Be clear.

[โ€“] KingOfSleep@lemmy.ca 0 points 11 months ago

Looks like a UFO crash to me. See, anyone can make a wild-ass guess.

[โ€“] Widdershins@lemmy.world 0 points 11 months ago

I'm all for exposing israeli war crimes but this is going about it the wrong way. It's more exploitative than it is informative. Trying to pass it off as something Renaissance is in bad taste.

Does Lemmy have a NSFW tag? This is so tragic and this type of content needs a filter imo

[โ€“] WillFord27@lemmy.world 0 points 11 months ago

NSFL tag please. I don't need to see tragic corpses on a Tuesday morning.. My heart goes out to them
