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

Tl;Dr: burning flag of Israel wasn't originally added bc the person who creates most of the emojis thought it was anti semetic, eventually enough people demanded it and a struggle sesh happened and we got the emoji and lost some users in the process. The person who makes the emojis came around and realized they changed their mind about it (growth) but some others were really holding on to zio talking points about it and crashing out
