Post memes here.
A meme is an idea, behavior, or style that spreads by means of imitation from person to person within a culture and often carries symbolic meaning representing a particular phenomenon or theme.
An Internet meme or meme, is a cultural item that is spread via the Internet, often through social media platforms. The name is by the concept of memes proposed by Richard Dawkins in 1972. Internet memes can take various forms, such as images, videos, GIFs, and various other viral sensations.

- No explicitly political content (about political figures, political events, elections and so on), !politicalmemes@lemmy.ca can be better place for that
- Use NSFW marking accordingly
Laittakaa meemejä tänne.
- Odota ainakin 2 kuukautta ennen meemin postaamista uudelleen
- Ei selkeän poliittista sisältöä (poliitikoista, poliittisista tapahtumista, vaaleista jne) parempi paikka esim. !politicalmemes@lemmy.ca
- Merkitse K18-sisältö tarpeen mukaan

I've just been browsing. You're the one who keeps putting it into my feed just because you know I don't like it. And yeah, I get angry when I'm triggered. It's called a fight or flight response for a reason, and any veteran can tell you what that reason is. Now you want to fakeclaim a mental illness? You're just like every other She-Ra fan who claims to like the show because it portrays trauma sympathetically, and then goes on to attack mentally ill people.
You can't expect the world to accommodate for everything you struggle with. These memes are doing nothing unreasonable to the average person, people seem to be enjoying them. If you are getting triggered this badly by something so benign then you're going to have to solve it yourself. If we would block every meme that triggers somebody on the world, I'm afraid there wouldn't be many left.
OP has been triggering me on purpose. Not being an asshole on purpose isn't an unreasonable accommodation.
How so? Most of these memes seem to be just She-Ra images with some funny text. Does OP personally know you? Or do the images/text somehow refer to you in some way?
They said they were posting to upset me here: https://kbin.social/m/memes@sopuli.xyz/t/272967/-/comment/1242402
Putting it in your feed? They don't have control over what's shows up in your feed, you do by being allowed to block users and communities you don't want to see and if you're at risk of seeing things that might trigger your PTSD then the communities you subscribe to should be curated and you're the only one who can do that.
The content they're posting follows the community's rules, you can't ask them to stop posting it.
My criticisms of the "dictatorships are great" show also follow the rules
It's not as if it was constructive criticism or the place to complain about the origin of the image in the meme.
