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

The internet has normalized saying whatever shit comes to mind without any forethought and I can't quite say I'm a fan of this dumbing down of society

It's funny to me because the internet basically did the opposite to me. Now I just look up every thing until I feel like I have a solid understanding and then forget to even make the comment that started the whole thing

Ah but you clearly don't have the audacity and self-assurance that cishet, white, neurotypical men have. That's a key difference. They don't need to fact check everything because they know that even if they're wrong, the world will likely reward them all the same.

Nah, we humans have always done this. The only issue is the internet gives them a platform where one can communicate their brain farts to thousands if not millions in an instant. In the ancient times some caveman would say some beast like garbage nonsense and nobody care because nobody would ever get the opportunity to hear it in the first place.
