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 [email protected], 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

I agree, they are tools. But they're as useful as the material they're trained on... which so far in the west has meant the curated ones spew lib talking pieces, and the fully open ones immediately become Nazis

I was trying to be generous to the fucking things, which can be hard considering what techbros and proselytizers say about them.

No problem, honestly I find it more hilarious than not. By their brainrot, in every space/context/niche, the west is sowing the seeds of its own obsolescence (IMO). Would be better if not, just like it would be better if we all didn't have to live amongst the mess, but at least "evil will not win" or whatever (in contrast to China's ever-increasing triumphs, and the development of other nations of the global south).
