Post memes here.
A meme is an idea, behavior, or style that spreads by means of imitation from person to person within a culture and often carries symbolic meaning representing a particular phenomenon or theme.
An Internet meme or meme, is a cultural item that is spread via the Internet, often through social media platforms. The name is by the concept of memes proposed by Richard Dawkins in 1972. Internet memes can take various forms, such as images, videos, GIFs, and various other viral sensations.
- Wait at least 2 months before reposting
- No explicitly political content (about political figures, political events, elections and so on), !politicalmemes@lemmy.ca can be better place for that
- Use NSFW marking accordingly
Laittakaa meemejä tänne.
- Odota ainakin 2 kuukautta ennen meemin postaamista uudelleen
- Ei selkeän poliittista sisältöä (poliitikoista, poliittisista tapahtumista, vaaleista jne) parempi paikka esim. !politicalmemes@lemmy.ca
- Merkitse K18-sisältö tarpeen mukaan

Man, if that's the way you analyze memes then no one will be allowed to post any memes because there will always be some unrelated reason to complain!
Ew, monarchism show that triggers my PTSD
Well then, block the user posting them and be on your way instead of intentionally continuing to expose yourself to them and complaining in every post.
At this point that's on you bud.
I don't want people getting ideas that She-Ra is a good show or that memes featuring it are worth making, because then more people will post it. Right now, my PTSD is under control because I know someone's been triggering me on purpose. If I make sure to inform people that idealised images of dictatorships are bad, then there's less risk other people will join in the supposedly "harmless" fun.
Ever heard of the Streisand effect?
