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

the "KHive" thing was always a weird self-tell to me (alluding, I assume, to the insect-like hivemind attitude of her followers, where all individual thinking is quelled and all ends uncritically serve their Queen), but it occurred to me only yesterday


did they literally just switch it to KHive because it was originally BHive (like Beehive) for Biden? But then Biden got palace coup'd after the Democrats' billionaire neo-colonial death-merchant financiers pulled their funding over his brain dripping from his ears and nose on live TV, so they needed to change it but just switched the first letter because the didn't have the imagination to come up with a new name? Because agony-soviet

The hive thing was originally popularized by "bey-hive" for Beyonce I believe. Then some Kamala supporters used "k-hive" and then they did "b-hive" for Biden. Really it wasn't even Beyonce fans that did it first, they just did it the loudest

I don't understand why people would want to give themselves a name that alludes to being part of to a borg-like hivemind of insects that live solely to serve their 'royalbred' betters; but then again I've never been one to identify with 'fandoms' in general. And a lot of Europeans did it until gui and some people still do it :god-save-the-queen: anglo-burn so what do I know.

These are also the same people who get mad about "collectivism" when you talk about marx hammer-sickle

Look, I am 100% for being a drone in a hive mind to serve my glorious queen, but I don't mix my kinks with my politics smdh

"Bey-hive" only cropped up as a fan demonym in response to Nicki Minaj's "Barbz"; who are still the most unhinged mfs on the internet. Even I've got nothing when I'm up against a Barb.
