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

Rip to the ones moving to the UK what a wild decision. Have fun with our "democratic" government and crumbling infrastructure i guess

They're probably mostly the bourgeois population anyway. The gusanos of Hong Kong if you will.

They were not prepared for the mega-racism they faced in the West. Some actually very sad stories for people who kinda deserved it but got much worse than they deserved.

Here's a 19 year old kid complaining about the UK after he spent a single year there after "fleeing" HK

Highlights:

  • Accommodation provided by the UK government was subpar

  • The UK government doesn't treat him like a citizen and would regularly rummage through his belongings

  • He can't attend university

  • British cuisine sucks

  • He wants to go back home
