It's a parody of book covers by the imprint Zer0 Books, which published usually left-wing, memetic and somewhat bizarre books on political theory, art, or philosophy. Their classics include "Capitalist Realism" (you've probably heard of the titular term at least) and "Kill All Normies: Online Culture Wars From 4Chan And Tumblr To Trump And The Alt-Right".

Damn, kinda wanna read these now

It took me a long time of thinking “what do these have to do with dbzer0” before realizing…

Fill me in please, I beg of you!

The books are published by "Zer0 Books", and my (OP) profile is on the Divisions by Zero server (lemmy.dbzer0.com). That's what the other guy is referring to, I think - but it wasn't intentional on my part!

You’re entirely correct!

Ohhhhh... ty!

The other person explained this better than I can!

The connection wasn't deliberate, I swear!
