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

Wasn't there a quote from an Ansarallah leader who said he feels bad every time he sees one of these drones because he knows that it was millions of dollars that could have gone to poor people in America, instead of a useless machine of death?

The Houthis found out why Americans don’t have free healthcare

what you name your drone when you're definitely not the bad guys

[–] EmoThugInMyPhase@hexbear.net 46 points 5 months ago (1 children)

The AC-130 is nicknamed “angel of death” lol

makes me nostalgic for the just baseline ghoulish naming convention of appropriating the names of vanquished indigenous tribes

[–] dannoffs@hexbear.net 54 points 5 months ago (1 children)

The Houthies learned why we don't have healthcare, and the reason is incompetence.

[–] Adkml@hexbear.net 34 points 5 months ago (2 children)

Yup we spend more on Healthcare than countries with Healthcare.

The reason we don't have it is it all goes to overpaid managers

Same with the MIC

Serious question though how tf did they bring it down without it crashing harder

[–] SacredExcrement@hexbear.net 17 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago)

My guess is it was probably flying low and slow, with the (mistaken) belief that they wouldn't be able to bring it down

The thing is so large that if it were already flying level, it could just glide in if it lost power or if it was damaged enough

a tweet I saw earlier on IbnRaid's feed was talking about how a SAM with a proximity fuse went off close enough to disable it but left it relatively intact. if I find it I'll edit the link in

"Damn habibi, this is why you don't have healthcare?"

[–] FourteenEyes@hexbear.net 39 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Think of all the children who won't be exploded now
