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 !the_dunk_tank@www.hexbear.net, it's a great comm.

  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

Its the recommended daily internet arguments per USDA guidelines.

  • At the bottom are your ad hominems, these lay a good foundation and give you the required dopamine for the day.
  • Then come your basic civility criticisms and tone policing to make sure everyone treats you with the respect you deserve.
  • Contradictions are of course necessary to make sure your position is represented and to make it harder for opposing views to get traction.
  • A few counterarguments here and there make sure that you get a bit of research done in order to be able to form new arguments. This is a good idea as arguments age over time and need to be replaced every so often.
  • A refutation is of course a long-term source of dopamine that you can refer back to in the upcoming days for a quick hit by marvelling at your own argument.
  • If you have taken care of all your daily internet argument requirements and still have time left, why then you get to do some name-calling. As a treat.
