Don’t even talk to me until I’ve had my “nineteen of the same joke back to back” in the morning
Just having 8 of them being spammed on the page at once. I'll say they were funny, and I'm american. But it quickly became spammy. At least spread them out over a few days
Honestly I found them especially funny because there were so many very different ones in a row xD
It's funny when it's different people organically and creatively jumping on the trend. Not so much when it's the same meme over top of different pictures, posted by the same person
Thanks for asking. The legitimacy of our rule of law is crumbling under the violent malfeasance of cops and the open lawlessness of the rich, our schools are becoming a lesser imitation of our world-beating prison industrial complex, and our social fabric has long since been torn to bits by culture wars and fear mongering corporate media, to name only a few matters that trouble the hearts of my countrymen on a daily basis. Things are very obviously too serious for satire, and yet protesting seems as likely to ruin or end your life as it is to get a lukewarm empty gesture from our leaders at best. The most fortunate of us, which I gratefully count myself and my family among, have the means to simply leave. Absent a general strike and a series of sweeping and well considered social, political, and economic reforms, that is the best most of us can hope for.
That is all to say that many Americans are in no position to find comfort in the balm of humour. They have my pity, and I think of them as I pour out a cup of crude oil, in memory of my fallen homies.
There's someone who posted like 5 america-bad based oil memes in the span of a few hours today.
Edit: I just scrolled further and there are even more now from the same person. Who hurt you, NOT_RICHARD?
a single guy can raid several communities in a few hours just fueled with his hate and love for his cause. I love lemmyverse ❤
lookit me ahhn an amearicayn ahh drave mah ram truck araaand wid nothin insaide it to burn up that gasoleeeen
oh no wait were back to oil jokes again
Imagine how tired we are of america fucking the world over and over. A meme is the least they should expect.
If its got an interesting turn I don't mind it. But sure, reposts are annoying.
Funny thing is other Americans already picked up the talking point ^^^
Similar to the butthurt posts from Europeans who must continue their America bad fetish and feed their superiority complex.
Haha lul clueless americans thinks loving your imperialistic homeland is normal.
Germany is a fckin shithole, but at least I don't pretend it is not.
Loving a country is different than loving the government itself. Also, most countries have been "imperialistic" at some point in their history. Europe is a perfect example of some of the most vile imperialism that has occurred.
Europe has been the worst, us is currently the worst. That's exactly my point.
With Imperialism and colonialism on this scale, everything is interwoven with the ideology.
What to love about the country? The cultural tradition with its slavery and natives abuse?
The present state with mass homelessness, that CIA who breaks every human right I'm the book? The propaganda, war and regime changes?
You can't decouple something in the country from the rest.
Maybe you like Meaningless feel good pop songs, but they exist and are popular because of the above. Maybe you like some food, but you can't divide that from the fact that Americans die from obesity while in the rest of the world people starve.
Imperialism has swallowed everything and integrated it into the system, that's how it works.
Loving a national state can't be pure, because national Staates cant be pure
Or, you know, block the single user posting what seems to be bothering you so much, and get on with your life?
Seriously, imagine feeling the need to, and then taking the time to make a meme about another random user on the internet whose content you don't like, and thinking you somehow have any high ground in this pathetic scenario.. 🤯🤦♀️😂
Let's be specific, NOT_RICHARD is that user.
Funny enough, even though the memes are pretty stupid, the discussion on them are interesting.
Me too. And despite all the pearl clutchers, it's still getting views so jokes on them.
If only Americans cared about America being bad as much as they care about memes calling America bad. 😂
People are bad for their motivations and actions being bad, not for being born in a specific country
America bad is not a joke just facts lol. But yeah, oil jokes are too easy to be funny.
