I’m not bothered by the amount of tattoos. I’m bothered by the nazi swastika front and center. I would be just as bothered if they were just wearing a nazi arm band or Trump hat.
No, I think I’m on the point. I don’t care about other people’s appearances and I don’t care to subject other people to what I think self respect looks like. I’m bothered by what their morals are and how they’re going to make that my problem. Nazi tattoos mean that person wants to make life worse for other people. I’m not bothered by the dye, but by the ideas they represent. The woman in the picture doesn’t have any hate symbols that I recognize.
You find the tattoos distasteful for a reason of your own. I share such a reason, but it’s your own. Therefore you find the display graffiti-like: a blight on the visual landscape (in that interpretation of grafatti)
Edit The significance of Nazi iconography being distasteful is an easy one, and that’s why it was used as an alternative display to prove the point.
I’ve already stated that I do not find the tattoos themselves distasteful. It’s the meaning behind them.
We’re assuming that the owner of the building didn’t do that themselves, but if they did it’s not my problem.
I’ve already stated elsewhere that the real difference between a women getting her body tattooed and a building getting tagged is one consented and the building owner(presumably) didn’t.
Consent is not part of the point being made. The woman, the Nazi dude, whatever. It’s the perceived appeal. You identified you have no issue with the art of the woman, but do with the art of the man. That’s the point. Don’t conflate into other topics, of course the woman is free to choose her art, even a swastika. The point is the others perception of that.
A building is inanimate , so it’s irrelevant to consider what it likes.
Therefore comparing tattoos to graffiti is about the style/perception of the art. (Especially as all involved tattoos are clearly applied with consent)
Therefore it isn’t a point of comparison or distinction. The top comment in this chain is suggesting “for those that think tattoo don’t look like graffiti, consider this:…”. It is a relevant point because it challenges the viewer’s possible acceptance / enjoyment of the woman’s tattoos, by showing obviously, (or at least widely) distasteful tattoos. Conclusion being that some tattoos could be perceived as junk.
We really didn’t need to bring the “criticizing our community in the third person” farce over from reddit. You are Lemmy too, and I suspect you can handle abstract reasoning, yes?
Telling of what? The dude brought up something that didn’t happen in the image and being like “Oh yeah well you’re wrong because of something irrelevant”
Lemmy cannot handle abstract reasoning. If you change the scenario at all to make a point, they shit circuit

You’re pretty close to the point.
The point is that it’s subjective, and given the right content or quantity, it looks bad to you.

Thinking you’re a special online community is also a reddit trope.
If you have to change the scenario to make your point then your point doesn’t belong in this comment section.
It’s a common way to illustrate a point, by describing it with other variables.
Your reply is telling lol
