Isn't this format based off of a racist porn "meme"? Why use it?

To be clear I'm not talking about the characters themselves, they're cool, I'm talking about the format/set up. Surely there's a better way to illustrate the point.

It's 5 people behind a couch where 1 person is sitting, I understand you view it as racist because where the original is from but literally nobody else think of it that way.

It's literally the exact same couch photoshopped into the picture. The porn sites watermark is still in the corner of the image. Whoever made the meme is clearly aware of the original.

I am just not a fan of this format. Or any of the porn based meme formats. Call me a prude if you want, but I don't find them funny.

I'm not saying they're not aware of the original, I am too, I'm saying it doesn't matter and it's weird to be upset about it, I've never seen this happen before

I am just not a fan of this format.

Fair enough

Yeah I know my stance on such things is probably unpopular and maybe considered weird, but I just thought it was worth sharing. Because I find it weird how these meme formats proliferate.

Thank you for engaging and commenting constructively instead of being all mean to me or something lmao.

It's ok and sorry if I did come across as a little mean

Nah you weren't mean or anything, it's all good anarchy-heart
