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

he's a living Cumtown bit, "how about Jim Cramer, but he's Chinese?"

Fortunately, Gordon Chang was raised with Burger accent, so we won't have to hear the racist voice lol

[–] casskaydee@hexbear.net 26 points 1 week ago

Maybe he means the Republic of China

Bit idea: send him a note "from china" thanking him for misleading the US government for so long then give an anonymous "tip" about the note to the CIA so that they arrest him for treason.

What if he's a crypto-comrade and this entire time he's using "China" as code to substitute for the US and he's actually talking about the collapse of the US? This would track in terms of comments and timeline.

If the US collapses, he should spin excuse by the CPC and see if they let him do a speaking circuit grifting on discussing how the US had an inferior system that always showed signs of collapse but he couldn't speak out due to fascist repression.

So bro has been talking about China's collapse longer than I've been alive? Wow

[–] yogthos@lemmygrad.ml 15 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Imagine having a long and illustrious career of being wrong about everything all the time.

[–] Damarcusart@hexbear.net 14 points 1 week ago (1 children)

It was before USAID was cut, now, I don't know.

[–] Des@hexbear.net 6 points 1 week ago

Yeah I can't imagine a bunch of slop piggies throwing cash this guy's way

You can go the other side and be Shaun Rein, author of “The End of Cheap China” and other airport books.
