Ah yes, biblical genders: the penetrator and the penetrated.

Just because a priest rapes an alter boy, it doesn't make them an alter girl, it makes them an alter man.

[–] MutilationWave@lemmy.world 1 points 11 months ago

Altered. Altered Beast.

Theres also god who is "both but neither." You know, non binary. Well, he was biologically a man with a giant, oversized novelty penis but came out as non binary to mosses.

Just like in Demon's Souls 🙃

[–] bjornsno@lemm.ee 46 points 11 months ago (2 children)

Come on, this one is funny but why pretend it was ever made by a right wing person in earnest? Everything about it screams classic mocking meme.

[–] Napain@lemmy.ml 88 points 11 months ago (5 children)

well you can never be sure but here are some other posts from the same instagramnpost

and many more here is the source https://www.instagram.com/p/C9kt2-dudag/

The irony detector is doing heavy lifting for me:

[–] Tar_alcaran@sh.itjust.works 16 points 11 months ago (4 children)

Do any of those strike you as not a parody?

[–] zigmus64@lemmy.world 53 points 11 months ago (2 children)

None of them strike me as parody…. Plenty of folks behave as though they believe this stuff heartily. Many of them are in Milwaukee right now.

[–] Tar_alcaran@sh.itjust.works 7 points 11 months ago

I hate how right you are...

[–] some_guy@lemmy.sdf.org 1 points 11 months ago

Nashville, too.

[–] makyo@lemmy.world 14 points 11 months ago

Parody and satire have taken a real beating in the last years so I'd say ¯_(ツ)_/¯

[–] scrubbles@poptalk.scrubbles.tech 9 points 11 months ago

I'll counter and say even if they are... FB and insta morons gobble up parody. They have no idea what it is. You post this over there and I guarantee you'll get 10,000 comments agreeing with it seriously.

[–] Rhynoplaz@lemmy.world 8 points 11 months ago

What a bunch of assholes.

[–] some_guy@lemmy.sdf.org 5 points 11 months ago

Another one on there:

[–] victorz@lemmy.world 4 points 11 months ago

I was also thinking this was already sarcastic/pre-memed.

[–] HawlSera@lemm.ee 32 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Could they have picked a rapier looking Ken for this pic?

[–] Zorsith@lemmy.blahaj.zone 16 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago) (1 children)

It looks like the photoshopped Alan Tudyks face overtop of Ryan Gosling

Kinda looks like a grown up version of Joffrey from GoT.

[–] curiousaur@reddthat.com 3 points 11 months ago

Or maybe just a really good character actor?

[–] MargotRobbie@lemm.ee 27 points 11 months ago

The guy in this meme looks like he's really into the patriarchy and horses for some reason.

I sure do wonder what movie this meme is from and on what platform I can watching it on. Hmmm.

[–] TrickDacy@lemmy.world 11 points 11 months ago (5 children)

I will never understand some memes. Okay so he's sort of making some kind of face. I have literally no clue what emotion is expressed or what anyone thinks is being expressed. He looks maybe slightly frustrated but I can't be sure. That's funny in some manner?

[–] meekah@lemmy.world 19 points 11 months ago (1 children)

I'm not sure what would be funny about this image either. I think he looks predatory more than anything else in this image. Maybe its just supposed to be relatable and the conservative who made this meme thought it would be cool/manly in some messed up way? Idk

[–] frezik@midwest.social 10 points 11 months ago

I think you have it. Complete lack of self-awareness on their part.

[–] Asafum@feddit.nl 14 points 11 months ago

Honestly to me he looks like a predator watching his prey which is almost exactly why they chose "lucky lady"

[–] XeroxCool@lemmy.world 13 points 11 months ago

Without movie context: blonde white man, traditional haircut, general frustration, devout determination

With movie context: he's pissed that Barbie has so many freedoms and superior rights. It's a woman's world. Males are lower class and serve the women. And if you stop the movie 2/3 through, Ken/men take over the world in Barbie's absence and take their revenge to live happily ever after. Conservative men tend to think the world has already been taken from them since they're no longer supposed to catcall women walking, slap their secretaries' asses, and generally blame this generally progressive trend for equal rights/freedoms as the reason they're so unsuccessful in life. They don't blame the economy, capitalism, imperialism, unsustainable growth, misrepresented postwar success, or politicized religious takes; they've been brainwashed to identify women as one of the outgroups taking away their resources in a zero sum game.

[–] Katrisia@lemm.ee 1 points 11 months ago

I don't remember the scene, but the caption and something about it makes it feel like decisiveness, maybe frustration finally made into a plan.

[–] Napain@lemmy.ml 1 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

the original meme was a video that i took a screenshot of for lemmy that's why it's so awkward but to me that makes it funnier

[–] supertrucker@lemmy.ml 4 points 11 months ago

Kinda looks like Leslie Neilsen if an AI program reversed his age to the mid to late 20's
