dank memes

Rules:

  1. All posts must be memes and follow a general meme setup.

  2. No unedited webcomics.

  3. Someone saying something funny or cringe on twitter/tumblr/reddit/etc. is not a meme. Post that stuff in !the_dunk_tank@www.hexbear.net, it's a great comm.

  4. Va*sh posting is haram and will be removed.

  5. Follow the code of conduct.

  6. Tag OC at the end of your title and we'll probably pin it for a while if we see it.

  7. Recent reposts might be removed.

  8. Tagging OC with the hexbear watermark is praxis.

  9. No anti-natalism memes. See: Eco-fascism Primer

Officially, Maduro is a social democrat lol. Why do westerners complain about Venezuela being a communist

In The US, calling anyone who espouses anything which even remotely resembles a left-wing view communist is a time honored tradition. Shit, Breitbart called Micheal Bloomberg Maoist.

Shit's ennervating.

For me it's invigorating. As someone who is so far left leaning that I tilt toward that side of the earth's axis, I love when someone calls me a communist. At last, someone being honest about who I am honestly and happily.

Westerners have never been concerned with the nature of reality beyond what's useful to justifying their position in the economic pyramid
