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

Is this referencing obscure history or am I looking too far into it

[–] Babs@hexbear.net 34 points 2 months ago (3 children)

It's the meme where the guy wants to be a streamer after the revolution but has to go dig coal (or alternately, dude loves coal mining but has to write poetry), combined with the new one about a factory making circles and triangles.

both of these workers are paid the same

[–] Dolores@hexbear.net 19 points 2 months ago

ooooooooooooooh you beat me to it

hexbear really actually beats the cliquishness allegations with how eager we are to earnestly explain things

[–] CliffordBigRedDog@hexbear.net 16 points 2 months ago

This is me after the revolution

[–] ICEMAN@hexbear.net 15 points 2 months ago

I've seen these comics or what it's satirising on facebook. They make fun of how dumb jobs are.

[–] Dolores@hexbear.net 14 points 2 months ago (3 children)

alright so the composition is borrowed from an anticommunist? antibolshevik? comic panel about how the pursuits of a caricatured supporter of "The Revolution" would be shunned and they'd be forced to do manual labor

the factory line context is from this going pretty hot now, i've saved a few good ones, it's a very potent vehicle to talk about work and how we interface with it

My personal favorite (which I made)

that went so hard, all time thread. it sucks when the joke requires the context of the post so you have to save screenies of the whole thing to preserve it (of course i did that tho)

[–] PM_ME_YOUR_FOUCAULTS@hexbear.net 4 points 2 months ago

Honestly there's just something so funny about this meme to me. I think it's the soldier yelling that does it

I love your commentary on this. So what is the circle about, then? Is there any connection to Hamas at all, or am I reading too much into the red triangles?

[–] GalaxyBrain@hexbear.net 7 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Pythagoras was an ancient Greek dude who was really into triangles

[–] Dolores@hexbear.net 8 points 2 months ago

a BASTARD dude who HATED BEANS

[–] Dolores@hexbear.net 2 points 2 months ago (1 children)

the orientation is reverse and its gotten a ton of traction in lib spaces so i don't think it's related, but i cannot speak to the positions of the OP. it has been appropriated to unambiguously support the resistance tho

[–] propter_hog@hexbear.net 2 points 2 months ago

Ok, I don't watch TV and didn't know what all the red triangles were at first when they started showing up in memes a while back; I wasn't sure if they switched to using blue circles or what.

[–] Dolores@hexbear.net 15 points 2 months ago (1 children)

fucking pythagoreans i'm going to force them to make circles, i'm going to force them to eat the fucking beans, i'm going to chase them across the companga messogiornese

spongebob-i-fucking-love I FUCKING HATE PYTHAGORAS

[–] infuziSporg@hexbear.net 5 points 2 months ago

Sounds like a genus of plants that grows in open places
