Is this referencing obscure history or am I looking too far into it
It's the meme where the guy wants to be a streamer after the revolution but has to go dig coal (or alternately, dude loves coal mining but has to write poetry), combined with the new one about a factory making circles and triangles.
the more recent meme
both of these workers are paid the same
hexbear really actually beats the cliquishness allegations with how eager we are to earnestly explain things
This is me after the revolution
I've seen these comics or what it's satirising on facebook. They make fun of how dumb jobs are.
alright so the composition is borrowed from an anticommunist? antibolshevik? comic panel about how the pursuits of a caricatured supporter of "The Revolution" would be shunned and they'd be forced to do manual labor
the factory line context is from this going pretty hot now, i've saved a few good ones, it's a very potent vehicle to talk about work and how we interface with it
My personal favorite (which I made)
fucking gold lmfao
Also this one
that went so hard, all time thread. it sucks when the joke requires the context of the post so you have to save screenies of the whole thing to preserve it (of course i did that tho)
Honestly there's just something so funny about this meme to me. I think it's the soldier yelling that does it
I'm partial to this one myself
I love your commentary on this. So what is the circle about, then? Is there any connection to Hamas at all, or am I reading too much into the red triangles?
Pythagoras was an ancient Greek dude who was really into triangles
a BASTARD dude who HATED BEANS
the orientation is reverse and its gotten a ton of traction in lib spaces so i don't think it's related, but i cannot speak to the positions of the OP. it has been appropriated to unambiguously support the resistance tho
Ok, I don't watch TV and didn't know what all the red triangles were at first when they started showing up in memes a while back; I wasn't sure if they switched to using blue circles or what.
