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

American's brains literally short-circuit trying to comprehend what should be basic foundational morality

[โ€“] Evilsandwichman@hexbear.net 6 points 14 hours ago

I wish I could disagree but the literal morality I've had to contend with is basically 'Western countries good, non-Western countries bad; Westerners people with rights, non-Westerners barely people with negotiable rights'

Ukraine invasion = bad

Middle East or Africa invasion = good (bumped up to neutral ten years after war begins, and biggest tragedy is the handful of American soldiers killed)

Democracy = citizens deserve human rights

Not a democracy = Kill the innocent!

Basically look at ICE; ICE is doing but a shred of what the troops did in Iraq and yet only ICE gets any hate.
