That's odd, I'm not a daily Divoom user myself but I do use it often, and I have never seen any nazism or drug symbols in their galleries. Where exactly did you see this kind of imagery?

That's really odd. I'm not disputing what you see on your end, but in my install of Divoom for iOS, I can't see those artworks, even if I search for "nazi flag" from within the Galleria screen.

This is for the Divoom Timebox btw. Maybe it is different for other devices.

But serious question. Am I crazy for not thinking this belongs here? I feel like I'm in an alternate universe where nobody cares about this stuff.

When somebody draws or writes something racist it's fascinating to watch how quickly a ton of other cursors rush to cover it up or change it. Glad to see most people not approving of swastikas and slurs. EDIT: on a more entertaining note, I just saw somebody with great handwriting write "Incredible how fast something like this devolves into vulgarity". Vulgarity was immediately scratched out and replaced by a crudely…

Only some slurs are erased. Ones against other groups are left up. It shows it's PC conditioning, not anything genuine.

I was on there for a couple of hours, and I just saw the same repeated racist, homophobic, and anti-semitic slurs again and again and again (not to mention constant swastikas). I don't even know what types of "PC-approved" slurs you're referring to.

I know. For a Westerner, it's weird walking around India and seeing them all over the place. The fact that they are authentically a religious or good-luck symbol in some cultures doesn't change the fact that, in Western culture, they carry Nazi symbolism, intentionally or unintentionally.

The India ones are the original. Asshole Nazis took that and flipped it...so what you see in India is NOT the one Nazis use. Look closer at their differences.

The names Adolf, Hitler and his moustache aren't making comeback any time soon either, that's just reality.

function createEvent(type, x, y) { const event = new PointerEvent(type, {pointerId: 1, bubbles: true, cancelable: true, pointerType: "touch", width: 100, height: 100, isPrimary: true, clientX: x, clientY: y }); const element = document.getElementById('canvas'); element.dispatchEvent(event); }

createEvent("pointerdown", 0, 300); for(x = 0; x what am I doing wrong?
