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

I'll allow their use of AI.

Sadly they've got a Ricky Gervais video as the ai subtitling sample, but then again it is his anti Hollywood golden globes speech... which was essentially controlled opposition.

Nevertheless.

i always cringe when people on reddit post that speech like it's the most badass thing they've ever seen and heard. i never even watched it. once i heard it's ricky gervais "taking hollywood to task" i figured, i don't really need that in my life.

And nothing happened after. It's great someone was able to say some stuff about someone....but that means fuck all if there aren't any consequences. If you point out Harvey Weinstein's accomplices and enablers, but don't actually remove them from their positions or take legal action, you're the equivalent of a strongly worded letter to the editor.

Anywho I'm ranting but lately I've grown tired of liberals and their inaction or outright obstruction. They say shit like "So-and-so really went after Trump and tore right into him! Really slammed him!" When I point out he's not even getting fined, is still taking office, and definitely isn't going to prison, they always have some excuse.
