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

this is an extremely sloppy map, i can't endorse something this inaccurate even for a silly meme, you'd look foolish reposting it.

nonexistent US bases in afghanistan, the bases in KSA, Kuwait, Jordan, Syria, Turkey, and Pakistan are not evacuated, even the ones in Iraqi kurdistan are still supposed to be occupied there's a threshold for exaggerating the point for propaganda/persuasive purposes and this is all the way up a heap the other side. a texan could find factual errors in this.

There's a US base in Turkmenistan? They barely even let tourists in.
