Post memes here.
A meme is an idea, behavior, or style that spreads by means of imitation from person to person within a culture and often carries symbolic meaning representing a particular phenomenon or theme.
An Internet meme or meme, is a cultural item that is spread via the Internet, often through social media platforms. The name is by the concept of memes proposed by Richard Dawkins in 1972. Internet memes can take various forms, such as images, videos, GIFs, and various other viral sensations.

- Use NSFW marking accordingly
Laittakaa meemejä tänne.
- Odota ainakin 2 kuukautta ennen meemin postaamista uudelleen
- Ei selkeän poliittista sisältöä (poliitikoista, poliittisista tapahtumista, vaaleista jne) parempi paikka esim. !politicalmemes@lemmy.ca

If it was here on Lemmy, there's a good chance many of the downvotes are the same person on multiple accounts engaging in vote manipulation. Probably true on Reddit, too, but much harder to confirm since none of that stuff is public.
I can't believe that shit is a thing. I mean, don't these ppl know about having a job, a favorite PC-game or at the very least smoking weed?
Touching grass (all interpretations)
(checks notes, statistically analyzing frequency patterns, outsourcing to consulting firm) Apparently not!
Also, downvotes are fun to collect! All of you're grandmother's r poopieheads!
I complained about this downvoting behavior in the past (on a different account), pointing out specific accounts, and the admins and mods don't care. They told me not to complain, instead.
I wouldn't put it past some instance admins to be the ones engaging in the vote manipulation themselves. There's plenty of dickhead admins that spun up their own instances because their views aren't welcome elsewhere and they can more easily control an echo chamber.
If it was on .world no, they don’t care.
The mods were on .world. The accounts were from several different instances.
I figured. They’d rather not rock the boat than do what’s right.
