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

Yea, eggs and groceries are always talked about but not housing costs, which rises with increasing interest rates as parasites pass on extra lending costs.

And there is definitely some level of partisanship to it, day one (more rabid) Trump supporters will start saying how great the economy is under Trump even though nothing changed.

They probably have more home owners, right? Since Trump tends to get more of the suburbs and whitey, I'm sure less of them give a shit about rising housing costs except for its connection to homelessness, which I don't think they even see.

Whitey suburbanites care a great deal about rising housing costs, because that means stonks-up on their ~~investments~~ property values.

You know, if USians weren't so brainwashed and functionally illiterate, such an opportunity could have been used to radicalise. Alas.
