We live during a critical point in history, and I am determined to laugh at it

[–] rynzcycle@kbin.social 54 points 2 years ago (1 children)

You can laugh or you can cry. Personally, I choose both.

It's called horrormirth, and it's a Discordian tradition.

Political memes -> memes complaining about political memes -> memes complaining about memes complaining about political memes

Can we go deeper?

[–] Grayox@lemmy.ml 39 points 2 years ago (1 children)

We must

Please post more political memes particularly about non-US politics.

For me it’s not even about that. I do not care about US politics, I just want to see some funny memes

[–] Son_of_dad@lemmy.world 14 points 2 years ago (3 children)

I dunno where you're from but as a Canadian I'm dismayed when Canadians say they don't care about u.s politics. Considering u.s politics influence our every day life just as much as the politics of our own Parliament. Anyone who has been to a major Canadian city and has seen Canadian idiots with the same Maga mentality, will tell you that u.s politics is a huge part of our life

I don't mind political memes, we're adults and politics plays an important part of our lives, satire on politics is a welcome part of life, BUT... why must they all be foreign memes from the Americas?

We should have a mix of political memes from all around the globe! Gods knows, Sunak or Braverman are deserving of memery.... :-P

I'm not smort enough to make memes :-(

[–] BolexForSoup@kbin.social 31 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (3 children)

Because y’all aren’t making other memes lol

Well except the Germans. I see a lot of German memes on Kbin lol

[–] flicker@kbin.social 12 points 2 years ago (3 children)

Honestly the Germans have been killing it with content creation.

[–] ekky43@lemmy.dbzer0.com 15 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

Considering that the Germans still upload the memes using fax, it's impressive that they are the biggest and loudest meme creators here in Europe.

[–] BarrelAgedBoredom@lemm.ee 8 points 2 years ago

I have half a mind to learn German just so I can more easily understand the memes lol

We have the best memes. We are a meme force to be reckoned with.

Also, we're desperate for some mirth to lighten the burden of how horrible some of our politicians are.

Americans must be better posters than EUers. Step up your game Europe

I'll never understand people who say this stuff. Like, make your own? Ask other Europeans to make them? What are we supposed to do, NOT post, because the minority of users don't feel like their relevant?

Exactly. We complainers aren't saying they can't post about politics, just requesting they post their political memes in the designated political meme space.

EDIT: A message to people from Hexbear

Thank you for your input, but I stopped responding to arguments here at least 24 hours ago because I can't juggle that many conversations at once. I would ask that you respect that and not continue to argue with me about what is and isn't political, because I'm just going to ignore it anyways. Thank you.

STOP POSTING ABOUT POLITICS. I'M TIRED OF SEEING IT. MY FRIENDS ON LEMMY SEND ME MEMES. ON KBIN IT'S FUCKIN' MEMES. I WAS ON AN INSTANCE, RIGHT, AND AAAAAAALLLL OF THE COMMUNITIES ARE JUST POLITICS STUFF. I- I SHOWED MY CHAMPION UNDERWEAR TO MY GIRLFRIEND, AND THE LOGO, I LOOKED AT IT, AND I SAID, "HEY BABE, WHEN THE COMMODITY IS FETISHIZED" [ding-ding-dings to the tune of The Internationale] I FUCKIN' LOOKED AT A TRASH CAN, I SAID, "UNDER CAPITALISM, WASTE PLAYS A VITAL ROLE IN THE ARTIFICIAL SCARCITY THAT UNDERPINS THE ENTIRE SOCIO-ECONOMIC SYSTEM". I LOOK AT MY PENIS, I THINK OF THE OMNIPRESENT PHALLOCENTRISM IN OUR PATRIARCHAL SOCIETY, AND I GO, "POLITICS? MORE LIKE POLY-DICKS!"

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

Are we supposed to read every post and every comment even if we don't like it ?

That seems so unfair ! We should have a right not to read posts and comments if we find them about a subject we don't want to interact with right then.

[–] moosetwin@lemmy.dbzer0.com 15 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I don't care which side is saying it I'm just tired of it (for the same reason I am tired of advertising)

Nah but this is all Lemmy is at this point. That sucks. We need more than this.

It's ok that this has a place here. But we need more than this.

Want some hard truths? Blinders off, reddit is still a much better place for content than Lemmy.

Honestly I'm getting tired of it.

Edit - I feel the need to say that there is actually one consistent thing on Lemmy that is fantastic - rpgmemes, specifically the ongoing series about a goblin high priestess playing dnd.
