Where's the meme, tho? This is just a screenshot of a depressing headline with no humor added to it.
The mods decided political posts without jokes can fly here.
It sucks, I know, and it's only gonna get worse as the US election draws nearer.
I'm not sure why they allow this, there's plenty of places for political focused content, not sure why it has to swallow up this community as well.
The meme is that the reaction to the shooting of Aysenur Ezgi Eygi got the exact same US response as the shooting of Shireen Abu Akleh
The author of the tweet contrasts the new headline of "it was an accident" with the previous 2022 headline and puts them next to eachother.
