How exactly is that a "meme" and not some trash political commentary?
Aren't that what memes are? Or at least mostly used for? He didn't exactly post on c/non-political memes.
no need to be angry
Usually memes follow a certain template; they have an "inside joke" type of vibe. I understand the urge in defending this post because of its message, but note that this is in no way a "meme". It's merely a collage of two unsourced images and portrays no comedic effect (quite the opposite in fact). I find it even hard to classify it as a political meme. At this point it's mere propaganda regardless of wether it is for good or ill. Surely there are more suitable communities for this post than here.
And c/non-political memes shouldn't have been a thing in the first place if this community wasn't being misused.
Your point is solid, and I am at no ability to argue such right now, nor do I want to (kinda lies, I want to be right, but ya can't win them all). So you suggest twisting it with a more humorous tone?
Non-political memes exists for some reason I have no idea, this meme one works just fine, I think they just like posting in the other one. Even the creator of this post has used the nonpolitical community once or twice.
I appreciate your sportsmanship.
So you suggest twisting it with a more humorous tone?
All I'm saying is there should be some effort put into a meme; what OP made here was a low effort political statement and could have found a more suitable place to post it other than here.
Even the creator of this post has used the nonpolitical community
Of course he would, hence asserting that !memes has become a political arena.
very true, have a nice day
If people interacted like this the word would be a better place.
the Ukrainians are honorary Europeans, up until the Europeans get tired of them
What do you mean with "honorary"? Ukraine is literally in Europe.
western europeans are weird like that
