The vast majority of people do not see problems like this in an internet joke because they acknowledge it as such. I'm not here to "be a dick" or "discriminate/generalize based on gender/sex"; I saw a funny meme and posted it here. If anything the women in the meme are acting like normal people, the same way most people would while the men are busy being stupid. You claim that this mocks women while the boys are the punchline.

The users above, as far as I can tell, thought that the meme format was sexist and not me. I said "not everything has to be political" as a way of mentioning that this isn't the sort of response that I expected and that I didn't intend for it to be interpreted in this way. I do concede that the phrase "political statement" was not the most accurate one to use. Really I should have said that calling something sexist is a pretty harsh criticism to throw at a meme like this and left it there.

I'm also going to ignore your ad-hominem pseudo-psychological analysis of me where you imply that I posted this meme because of I supposedly lack close relationships with women.

As far as I can tell, there isn't a place where the total number of points that you have as a user is displayed. This takes some value away from simply mindlessly pursuing points as points would be attributed more to the individual post rather than the user.

That's unfortunate, at least we still have smaller instances. Things seem to be better there.

Or were all just enjoying it and you're the one trying to be a party pooper

P-please, anything but sitting alone with my thoughts for a while. I just wanna scroll man. That's all. I don't have a problem. This is normal. It's fine. I'm fine. I'm just a lurker man, it doesn't matter if the content isn't good. I just wanna scroll.

That's probably a good thing. You don't need to be stimulated constantly with crappy memes and the worst political takes you have ever seen. Smaller platforms usually lead to more meaningful interactions with other users.

I don't see how your analogy is relevant here. When you search the word "sexism" on most search engines you are taken to the wikipedia article for sexism which talks extensively about women's rights movements as well as issues that feminists are concerned with in the today. It can therefore be said that the word has political connotations. By calling something sexist, you accuse it of discrimination using a word with political connotations. This is a conjecture that is political in nature and can therefore be considered a political statement. The word stupid does not have these connotations and thus would not be considered a political statement.
