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

the conservative coffee fantasy is rooted in the association of coffee with ruggedness

I agree with this, this is most of it. Another part is the general suspicion of outsiders and external ideas. To them, it’s just rebranded coffee, coffee being a famously cheap thing. They think that a latte is just an overpriced drip coffee, the same way many users here are suspicious of Apple selling overpriced computers. The more breathlessly you explain espresso to them, the more they think you are blowing smoke up their ass.
