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

And the best part is that I have done everything you're supposed to do!

I vote in primaries, I help canvas for local politicians i like, I am even on several of my town's political committees

Nothing has gotten better because the system is fucked and I am so tired of pretending it isn't

It's not though. It's working exactly as designed.

I meant fucked as in awful and deleterious as opposed to fucked up, aka broken

Curse my trenchant fingers

Feeling the same lately. The last bit of the electoralism lib in me was holding onto was at the local level. Even that is just blegh.
