memes

The point is that they've always been 'woke', and it's insane that people think that 'now' they've changed to 'become' woke.

I liked Motörhead but they also became political like 4 songs into their first album

They should have been Rage For The Machine!

Sounds like socialism to me. Are you saying Superman is a Commie?

Babylon 5: Fighting Earth fascists. Hey, wait a damn minute...

I always thought X-Men was about civil rights...

Star wars is also heavily influenced by the Vietnam war. This influenced is alleged to be non deliberate.

Wait, they're not upset about their vacuum cleaner after all? Who knew?

That's the joke I guess?

I'm convinced that that was just something that they decided to tack on to as an afterthought because it doesn't really make sense to view it in that context.

Especially if you include the sequels.

It’s not about trans rights as much as it’s a highly metaphorical film about trans experience. So metaphorical in fact it could be argued it fails (failed) in its messaging. Even after the Wachowski sisters broke the news to everyone, the film still isn’t regarded that way. It’s a nice after note and I’m certainly not trying to rag on trans rights or issues here, it’s just that The Matrix didn’t do much of anything for trans people.

graphics person here - so what you want to get is krita or gimp, krita has better UI, gimp is more versitile. Or photoshop if you feel like uhh, borrowing it from adobe (don't give them money they have enough)

• put them meme into the software or your choosing

• now if you can find a tool that says something like "healing" "spot healing" "patch" or "clone stamp" you can use them to remove the text that's already there, all those tools work a little differently but can get you where you want to be, so play around with them and find your favourite

• alternatively if that sounds too advanced you can brute force it, it won't look as seemless but it will get the job done. make a new layer, select a brush with soft edges and ~80% opacity, and then use the eyedropper tool (usual shortcut should be holding alt and clicking on the colour you want) and remove the text by covering it with the same colour that surrounds it. You'll notice how eventually the colour you sourced doesn't blend in, then what you need to do is grab a new colour that's nearby. Rinse and repeat until fully covered and blended

• add text

• if your text overlaps some parts of the image you don't want it to overlap you might find yourself wanting to erase a bit of it and not being able to. That's because the text is still text, fully editable. To change that you can either convert it to a normal layer (usually done by right clicking on the text layer and looking for something that says "convert") or (and that's the better option if you want to keep the text editable) you can apply a mask onto the text layer (should be a button for it next to "add layer" button), then as you have the mask selected draw with pure black over the elements you don't want the text to cover

i'm basing this mini-tutorial on photoshop so exact names and places of the tools you want might be different, but the process should be the same across most if not all image editing software
