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

He's good politically, just corny. He's never been known as a particularly good rapper, and you can't really be remembered or have any kind of legacy as a white rapper unless you have something better than just good politics to bring to the table. See: Aesop Rock. Also strong left political positions, but what elevates someone like him to being respected (even if only in the underground) is his caliber as a writer and his 500 IQ flow. Macklemore never had anything like that to build a reputation on, commercial success on a couple of tracks aside.
