The right needs to create elaborate theories of victimhood in order to even construct a punch-up joke. Is this why they prefer bullying humour, or is it why they have a persecution fetish?
Hey everyone guess what, I found something less funny than comedy theory: trying to understand unfunny people! 😀
Don’t forget they have to contradict themselves at every turn. “Go woke go broke” vs “cancel culture”, “the 2nd protects the 1st” vs cheering on cops beating up protesters, party of traditional family values vs supporting a dude who’s divorced several times and is in court for misappropriation of campaign funds to pay off a sex worker.
is it why they have a persecution fetish?
They want to persecute others, so they assume others want to persecute them. It’s always projection.
I’m left wing but this is the most auto-felating post I’ve ever seen.
If we don’t, who will?
Comrades, partners, sex-workers? Ego is harder to stimulate than both clitoris and prostate, but it makes it all sweeter. Call 1-800-EGO-STROKERS to find a lefty source of stimulus in your area!
Also, it is the wrong usage of the meme, which is hilariously ironical.
The meme should be “basic version -> fancy version”… Instead, we got opposing points.
I guess the left really can’t meme.

Are we gatekeeping memes now?
Just pointing out something funny
This is pretty cringe. Also not a meme.
But it’s on a generic bad thing/good thing template??? That’s comedy!

This Daniel guy makes memes and also huffs his own farts.
I’m openly left wing but I’m not gonna pretend that the majority of lefty memes are shit like this dude

Right-wing humor is just fear-mongering and prejudice. Left-wing humor is actually funny
but, woman thinking, HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA SO FUCKING FUNNY
That joke is so old they literally made fun of it in a movie about how repressive the 50’s were.
ya, right-wing humor, conservatives aren’t known for their plurality of new ideas
The christofascists really can’t meme, can they?
All political images macros are the first one because they are a terrible method of communication
Where does “pig shitting on its own balls” image macro fall?
Trying to figure out if hexbears are right or far right.

To be fair, you need a very high IQ to understand lefty memes. The humor is extremely subtle, and without a solid grasp of dialectical materialism most of the jokes will go over a typical user’s head. There’s also the intersectionalist perspective, which is deftly woven into online communities - the horniness draws directly from the old r/196, for instance. The fans understand this stuff; they have the intellectual capacity to truly appreciate the depths of these jokes, to realize that they’re not just funny- they say something deep about CAPITALISM. As a consequence people who dislike lefty memes truly ARE idiots- of course they wouldn’t appreciate, for instance, the humour in the popular characterization of the bourgeoisie as friggin’ piggies, which itself is a cryptic reference to 19th century propaganda. I’m smirking right now just imagining one of those addlepated simpletons scratching their heads in confusion as HappyRoadKill’s genius unfolds itself on their phones’ screens. What fools… how I pity them. 😂 And yes by the way, I DO have a Karl Marx’s tattoo. And no, you cannot see it. It’s for the femboys’ eyes only- And even they have to demonstrate that they’re within 5 points of class consciousness coefficient of my own (preferably lower) beforehand.
sploosh
Both sides can have ultra cringe meme’s. Both sides can have great meme’s. Both sides make up meme’s the other side never made to make the other side look worse.
Lol, the leftist memes I see look just as much kneejerk propaganda reinforcement.
More a case of,
When I look at my side’s meme, it’s humorous relief at the horror of the other side’s madness.
When I look at the other side’s meme, it’s dumb echo chamber and propaganda.
When they look at their meme, they’re dumb and reinforcing their dumb biases with no thought.
When they look at my meme, it challenges them to think and they don’t like that.
it’s humorous relief at the horror of the other side’s madness.
Yeah… imagine the madness of us not being in league with Nazis. The horror.
OK sure 🙄. Also, why do you care whether or not those you disagree with can meme?
Because there all dumb so i must call them dumb
No. They have different values than you. You can call their values cruel and perhaps call them cruel for having them, I may agree with you. But it is absolutely wrong to call these people dumb.
nah. they’re dumb. sorry.
People don’t get that riled up over wrong opinions. It’s differing values and fundamental conflicts of interest.
Wrong to call ALL of them dumb? Sure. Some are just ignorant and misinformed. But plenty of them are simply dumb.
Begging your pardon, I mean the attitude of the meme® is “people dumb therefore I must call dumb”.
P.S. some do seem to be pretty dumb though
Also a picture of somebody being a nuisance with a pickup with a caption about how tough they are for doing it isn’t exactly what I’d qualify as a good meme.
Can we all agree to stop using terms like political left and political right in such wide context? There are a lot of complicated issues considered to be political, and using aforementioned terms is just oversimplification. There is no need for all of this, it just helps dishonest people. There is even scientific study showing impact of labeling of different proportions es left or right.
Can we all agree to stop using terms like political left and political right
No.
This is exactly the kind of nuance that the meme is referencing!!!
I think it’s valid to talk about left and right (in addition to other labels with more detail) as long as we have a two-party system. But I also agree that the tenancy to oversimplify everything only helps the religions fascists and the capitalists that manipulate them.
as long as we have a two-party system.
So, like most of the liberals on here, you don’t actually understand why we even have such concepts like “left” and “right.”
That’s quite a statement, stranger. Amazing how you know so much about me from that one comment.
That’s quite a statement, stranger.
No. It isn’t. It’s a pretty damn mundane one.
The only way you can see anything left in the right-wing racketeering “two-party system” is if you don’t have the foggiest idea what left and right actually means.
I take it this is the first time you’ve been informed of this?
You have been extremely condescending and rude, making sweeping assumptions about me based on a few sentences. I took a look at your comment history, and it seems that this is basically all you do here, attacking others to presumably make yourself feel better.
I’m fine with disagreement, but I have better things to do than help you compensate for whatever inadequacies you think you have.
You have been extremely condescending and rude,
Perhaps if the liberal hive-mind was less immunized against reality the “condescending and rude” behavior wouldn’t be required.
making sweeping assumptions about me based
This you?
I think it’s valid to talk about left and right (in addition to other labels with more detail) as long as we have a two-party system.
So I was wrong about you being completely uninformed (at best) or grossly misinformed (at worst) about the subject matter at hand?
I’m fine with disagreement,
We haven’t disagreed on anything. In order for us to actually disagree, both of us needs to at least have a working knowledge of what it is we are talking about, don’t we?
One of us knows what the terms “left” and “right” actually means in a political context - the other doesn’t.
Nuance is not something to hide behind.
I am allergic to nuance can you please rephrase this into terms of marvel superheroes?
Lol sorry no, I’m out of the loop in regards to marvel.
Honestly people who make memes about either political side are stupid. Personally the left and right label is out-datedIMO and just hurting further evolution of society. Almost like they want us fighting over stupid memes instead of actually facing the real problem.
Oh, look… a centrist.
Yawn.
Lol thats an even worse label IMO. I have extreme ideas lol but I’m not with this whole left vs right ideaology it doesnt help fuck all
I’m not with this whole left vs right ideaology
said like everyone who has strong views but no real understanding
Lol I understand it perfectly its just dumb and needs to change. I will participate in the system but I strongly disagree with everything and will continue to voice my anger and disagreement with the fucking world. I vote, I strike, I volunteer, I go to city planning meetings for god sake. I know what im talking about, I’m trying to make a change dude.
This constant squabbling over things that really dont matter in the end is fucking insane. We all see the politicians promise the world and deliver nothing yet we continue to play the game. The amount of times they have proved corruption is part and parcel of the system should be enough to tell you what they really want. I am just trying to point out there is another way. We dont have to play the game they dictate.
What is ignorant and sadly very human is assuming this is it.
Don’t worry about convincing them. Use their assumptions and knee-jerk left/right/whatever reactions to reign them in and point them somewhere useful.
If they fight you, they’ll have to get to know themselves to fight back effectively.
I strike
Where do you strike that is ambivalent to the left/right divide.
With the indigenous people of my country we dont see the government as end all like you
then you do not understand what a government is, what is does, nor the power it holds
No Winston you have to pick a side. Haven’t you heard?
What is the real problem? Lizard-people?
Lol fuck I wish naw it’s more complicated its us we are the fucking problem dude. More specifically politics in general is broken and doesnt work anymore maybe it used to but hasn’t lately and getting worse
Edit: for the record I do believe in all that crazy alien shit but I dont blame any of humanity’s failings on anyone but ourselves and as well with our ahievements are all our own. we are the masters of our own destiny no matter what the fuck is out there
What do you think politics should be?
To be honest im not sure exactly More transparent to start, maybe restraints on corporate lobbying, more involvement with the people like public volunteer panels to discuss policies and other stuff. Thats just off the top of my head but I sure there are thousands of ways we could improve the system but we should at least try something else because I think we can all agree its shit
Those sound like left policies tbh! The right does NOT want restraints on corporate lobbying nor do they want more democracy. I think these are good ideas but I also think maybe you are way too hopeful about how open the political right is to these seemingly basic democratic measures.
The left/right seem basically the same if you just look at Dems/Republicans because they basically are the same, but true left politics aligns a lot more with what you’re saying than you may realize.
Just because my ideas align with “left politics” doesnt mean I believe in the system sure some have good ideas but usually it involves capitalism and that shit is a sickness. I also believe nationalism and patriotism have become a sickness. Once were useful but weve outgrown that. I want a better world for everyone even the fucking assholes that dont want a better world (capitalists you have to hurt people to get more) maybe we need to stop being so inclusive and cull some assholes no trials. Personally I want some variant of socialism.
But I’m not Naive and know things happen slowly and in steps so I will work with what I have to strive for what I want. In the end humanity is so immature as a species we really need to grow more consciencely to grown as a society IMO

dude read a single thing about what leftism and socialism even are, I beg you
Leftists are anti-capitalist. Leftists are also socialist.
Lol that’s literally left wing policies you nonce
I can agree with left policies but also hate the left dude its not black and white and also governments are bs
Change “left” and “right” to “altruism” and “egoism” and you’ll understand a little better both sides.
I do agree with you but I can’t do that with the people here or I’ll get even more down voted lol
Thank you ❤️
