... do we really wanna keep using a literal Neo-Nazi's comics for memes, even if we're changing the text?

[–] spez@sh.itjust.works 21 points 1 year ago

It's making fun of the comic, so why not? It brands the comic as a meme template rather than idiotic political agenda.

... do we really want to keep saying "this meme was originally racist and made by an asshole" under every goddamn meme?

Let's take their work, transform it so it spits in the face of their idiotic ideology, and have a laugh

Yes. It's a great format and obscures the initial message so why not?
