Welcome to politcal memes!
These are our rules:
Be civil
Jokes are okay, but don’t intentionally harass or disturb any member of our community. Sexism, racism and bigotry are not allowed. Good faith argumentation only. No posts discouraging people to vote or shaming people for voting.
No misinformation
Don’t post any intentional misinformation. When asked by mods, provide sources for any claims you make.
Posts should be memes
Random pictures do not qualify as memes. Relevance to politics is required.
No bots, spam or self-promotion
Follow instance rules, ask for your bot to be allowed on this community.
Memes are supposed to be. So, mission accomplished?
"it's just a meme bro it doesn't mean anything"
okay, at least you agree it is silly behavior
Oh, don't misunderstand, it absolutely means something. Satire, political cartoons, parody, etc have been used for centuries to make a point. Memes are no different.
So then why the deflection with "memes are supposed to be silly?" Obviously I'm referring to the meaning of the meme, passing it off as "just a meme" is intellectual cowardice.
Cartoons are cartoonish, satire is supposed to be satirical, memes are supposed to be memish, and for the most part that means silly
Are you incapable of this level of discourse? If I'm going to have to start posting articles about etymology you're probably gonna get bored.
I never said " it's just a meme " or any of those other things you're trying to cram in my mouth.
Before you can question the attributes of someone's intellect, you might want to actually have some for comparison.
Untrue, memes are just a pattern of information, they can be comedic, silly, satirical, anything. Silly is not a base component.
Are you? I said the idea was silly, and you said that was doing its job because its a meme.
"Right, so memes blaming them for the apocalypse is extra silly"
You replied with:
Memes are supposed to be. So, mission accomplished?The absolute irony of this statement. Firstly, I was questioning your intellectual *cowardice* by being too much of a pussy to stand by your statements and instead say its okay to have silly opinions because the opinions were delivered by memes.
So maybe work on your reading comprehension before you want to attack someone's intellect.
You correctly identified a property I believe memes should have. You deserve kudos for operating at that high a level. I wish you well on your journey through senescence.
