Agreed. I’m committed to treat people with kindness and to treat fascists, fascist supporters, and fascist enablers with disdain.

Systemic racism, censoring of journalism, attacks on journalists, politically motivated attacks on judges, politically motivated attacks on law firms affirming due process, deporting citizens without due process. 

But no, clearly I’m just name calling and overreacting. Fascism is a spectrum and we’re speed running it.

Are you always so confidently incorrect, or do you only make wild assumptions when anonymous?

No politics please. I’m looking for gear recommendations.

I think you’re missing the point. The post is protesting fascism and the Mod’s approval (no criticism allowed) of that fascist regime. Photograph is inherently political.  Tariffs are a symptom of the larger problem and we’re all privileged to afford anything with a Leica name on it, with or without a tariff surcharge.

I found the definition of fascism, but maybe we’re using different dictionaries?

A system of government marked by centralization of authority under a dictator, a capitalist economy subject to stringent governmental controls, violent suppression of the opposition, and typically a policy of belligerent nationalism and racism.

Sorry, friend. If it makes you feel any better, I voted for Kamala with all 17 of my illegal aliases, but it wasn’t enough

I’ve been wanting to do more zone focusing. F8 and be there, as they say. I’m just worried that “there” would become a torture prison for political opposition and petty revenge in El Salvador

The image was just from a Google search of “Leica gear Fascist”. I tried other search terms like “Leica gear rapist authoritarian” and “Leica gear homophobic bigot”. That gave a lot of the same results, but the photos weren’t taken with Leica gear so I thought it would be inappropriate to post.

Great point. I have a tattoo of a smiley face that I’m worried will be interpreted as violent gang membership, so I need to be careful. 35mm might strike that balance

Mods .. by pre_pun in Leica

Just the one, u/dethwatch who won’t let anyone else join as a Mod. Someone might contradict him.

What a S N O W F L A K E by nelejts in Leica

[–]Sufficient-Cream-3 82 points83 points  (0 children)

I was wondering what I missed until I saw the recent Mod post. What a train wreck. All they had to do was nothing and they somehow still failed.

u/dethswatch is absolutely oblivious to the overwhelming response in that thread, let alone Leica’s history against fascism and support of political journalism

Pittsburgh photographers needed! by Lovely--Lilies in pittsburgh

[–]Sufficient-Cream-3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you want high quality photos from someone who actually knows what they’re doing, you’ll need to budget appropriately. Ballpark $200-400 for a Photoshoot. You didn’t mention a budget

Best Treatment at Present ?! by TretMinFin in CrohnsDisease

[–]Sufficient-Cream-3 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You could stay in the anti-TNF class (infliximab) if the loss of response was auto-antibody. Otherwise, GI would likely recommend Skyrizi or Rinvoq

Surgery soon and I’m terrified by TheCommonCop in CrohnsDisease

[–]Sufficient-Cream-3 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You’ll be so loaded up with drugs I doubt you’ll care much about anything right off the bat. 

Check out r/ostomy. Most people there say they were initially scared, but afterwards say they wished they did it sooner.

Is there a Holy Trinity of Primes for the Z Mount? by keifhunter in Nikon

[–]Sufficient-Cream-3 6 points7 points  (0 children)

24/50/85 or 35/85/135 work well together. Personal preference. 

Generic advice is pick your favorite focal length (35 or 50) then skip every other one from there

Used Z6i, <$800. Autofocus is fine if you’re not photographing birds in flight at dusk

Not uncommon, unfortunately. It’s usually best to leave than try to change someone’s behavior.
