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

Well, the running mate's gonna need to constantly carry a Ouija board, but I suppose it's all worth it for the campaign slogan "I burn for XYZ"

I like to imagine that Bushnell is reading Hexbear from the Beautiful Shore, and just lightly exhaled from her nose.

Make of this what you will: https://www.assignedmedia.org/breaking-news/bushnell-gaza-immolation-protest-trans-identity

It seems very likely that she chose to die presenting as a cis man because if she'd martyred herself as herself, her death would just be seen as "hurr durr 41%" or whatever. But of course plenty of people say that it's "disrespectful" to gender her as feminine because "[s]he chose how [s]he'd be remembered", or "[s]he's already dead so there's no way to ever know for certain", or "it's disrespectful of the dead to invade their private lives in the search of evidence", or "maybe [s]he was just in a gender-questioning phase", or "this one person who knew Bushnell personally said [s]he wasn't trans", and just generally the same shit we've already heard about K. Cobain for years.
