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

That's the point of socialist realism! Art centering the working classes is core to Marxist culture. Here are some other cool socialist artworks:

I feel the same! Wish there was a comm for just socialist realism, maybe I’ll make one later when I’m feeling less lazy lol

Do it! Or just post a bunch to c/art.

[–] TrippyFocus@lemmy.ml 2 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Posting to arts a good idea! Better to not split comms for no reason lol
