Im guessing some conservative freak out happened over fruit cups?

[–] steal_your_face@lemmy.ml 53 points 2 years ago (1 children)

There was a video on twitter of migrants selling fruit and a conservative woman freaking out. I assume that’s what it’s referring to.

[–] ickplant@lemmy.world 39 points 2 years ago (1 children)

It's so tiring to keep track of what they're outraged about now.

“Fruit cup" = a queer person

I thought that was a pretty common slur?

I thought a fruitcake was a crazy person.

But fruit cups are tasty and nutritious

Controversial opinion but I don't think humans taste good.

[–] FakeGreekGirl@lemmy.blahaj.zone 6 points 2 years ago

Maybe you don't. I'm an absolute snack.

Actually human meat is lacking in key nutrients because it has already used up the nutrients that the human body burns through quickly.

Wut? Too early for me to try and make up context...

[–] Crampon@lemmy.world 49 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Fruit in a plastic shaker is unnecessary waste. Makes sense its a trigger.

What is the meaning of this meme? Im lost.

I think this is supposed to be a joke about MAGAs never eating fruit?

That just begs the question: Why is he skinny?

Also, it appears they accidentally left out the part where it's funny.

[–] Diplomjodler@feddit.de 28 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Why is he skinny?

Meth. The answer is meth.

I worked with a woman who'd just gotten off meth. She swore that she got sick more often while clean because... meth was made out of cold medicine.

[–] TexasDrunk@lemmy.world 9 points 2 years ago

I think you worked with my ex.

[–] IsThisAnAI@lemmy.world 24 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (3 children)

This shit is cringe. True /c/theleftcantmeme shit. No narrative, no point, just meeting fun of a dude for being straight and bats?

[–] CommanderCloon@lemmy.ml 56 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Only a rightoid could see this as a normal straight man and not a masculinist fascist

[–] IsThisAnAI@lemmy.world 9 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (2 children)

Lolol a shitty meme call-out makes me a fascist 👌

[–] momocchi@lemmy.world 33 points 2 years ago (6 children)

They never called you a fascist, unless you are just empathising with the character in the comic that much?

masculinist

What a cromulent word!

All memes are cringe and by participating in the culture you and I are as well

Fruit bats?

[–] chatokun@lemmy.dbzer0.com 16 points 2 years ago (3 children)

Seems to be referencing this tweet which I found on another post. Doesn't seem to be just about fruit, but easiest thing to mock I guess? I agree with mocking them, but seems a little easy to strawman: https://twitter.com/LibsSuckaBigOne/status/1774570717545107602

[–] watersnipje@lemmy.blahaj.zone 18 points 2 years ago (5 children)

Someone’s mad about people selling fruit cups? She can’t just not buy the fruit cups? Or, it’s a racism thing, isn’t it?

[–] chatokun@lemmy.dbzer0.com 11 points 2 years ago (2 children)

She makes a reply calling someone a fucking commie and complains about us voting in politicians that allow "illegals" in. Absolutely racism.

Looks like a fruit bat. But I still don’t get the joke.

[–] FakeGreekGirl@lemmy.blahaj.zone 16 points 2 years ago

Me neither. I can only assume there was some news item about right wingers wetting their pants over fruit cups that I missed.

And honestly, I wouldn't be surprised. They wet their pants about everything.

Is the flying fruit cup a metaphor for the gays? 🤔

[–] EdibleFriend@lemmy.world 7 points 2 years ago

Whenever I'm confused I assume gay has transpired.

[–] spujb@lemmy.cafe 7 points 2 years ago (2 children)

uncommon anti conservative meming L if i need to be convinced to laugh it wasn’t funny :(

They're also scared of falling acorns. Squirrels are braver than them.
