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 first one was like, okay, lame, cheesy, feel-good nonsense but largely harmless.

the second one is fucking gross though, like they just need to hug it out. fuck

it's saying they need to smash israel to free palestine. Or maybe the lib has a different resolution pictured.

Yeah, based on the first one being a generic anti-war statement, I made an assumption, but I can see how you could be correct. I think that's giving them a bit too much credit, but I see your point.

Either way, a big obvious problem with the "metaphor" (I hate to even give it that kind of credit) is that it presents Israel and Palestine as being equal with respect to the problem, they're symmetric. That to me is what's most lib-ignorant and gross about it.

That's a great point, I missed that.
