dank memes

Rules:

  1. All posts must be memes and follow a general meme setup.

  2. No unedited webcomics.

  3. Someone saying something funny or cringe on twitter/tumblr/reddit/etc. is not a meme. Post that stuff in /c/slop

  4. Va*sh posting is haram and will be removed.

  5. Follow the code of conduct.

  6. Tag OC at the end of your title and we'll probably pin it for a while if we see it.

  7. Recent reposts might be removed.

  8. Tagging OC with the hexbear watermark is praxis.

  9. No anti-natalism memes. See: Eco-fascism Primer

I think this is meant as a political cartoon, but I'm sure Yog would love to discuss with you if you want to talk about real photographs being misused to similar effect (along with stories that don't even have fake photos attached), e.g. with Tienanmen Square or Xinjiang, if you ask him to. I must admit that I don't have the patience for having that discussion with hostile strangers, but Yog is a power poster.

What makes you think I’m a hostile stranger? The general premise of the meme is good and fine. I’m sure it happens all the time. Just not sure this is a great example. If it happens in reality all the time, highlight those instances. Doesn’t help anyone to make up new ones.

Your tone and the implication Yog was doing the cropping when this is just a 5th-hand jpeg. The assertion itself was true.

Your tone

It's text, and half the people on here have autism. Can we not?

It's text

Which still carries tone, and that one was clearly accusatory

and half the people on here have autism. Can we not?

You're hiding behind finger wagging but this doesn't actually make sense. Am I just to that phrasing it as an accusation is just an oopsie whoopsie from someone with a very specific subset of autistic traits that leaves them with no idea of how they come off, and that them having no idea means they should not be encouraged to try to be mindful?
