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 /c/slop

  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

Caring this much about the pope dying for it to become a struggle session is deeply embarrassing for all of us. It's the pope, he isn't that important of a dude, catholics are I guess supposed to do whatever he says but most don't. His suggestions are considered by many, that's about it.

Devout catholics didn’t care what the pope thought. He says look after refugees, don’t discriminate against other religions and challenge capitalsim. The catholics are just like “deus vult lol” but are often too lazy to go full tradcatch. The whole thing feels more like an identity than any sort of genuine belief system.

yeah thats why the struggle sessions happen. Because people thought that communism being anti-religion (as it should) means that communists in the global south should go around and burn down churches and shoot priests or something.

Yeah, I seriously don't get why this didn't just end after one single "the pope is dead" post, what are we even doing here
