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

Npt ever.perfect but was better for a few decades from post war years to the 70s, when the business round table made a long game to cooperatively take away all of the gains of the new deal and labor movement.

Because of social concessions made to the proletariat in the imperialistic West due to encroaching global revolution. History played out differently.

Yeah that is true. I always preffered huey long myself over roosevelt.

We do not have that fear of workers revolting now that is the problem, only the far right is running as reform with left parties seized by aristocratic conservatives.

Hopefully you guys do not support that, this far right. Doing the world a great disservice if so, and any rationalizations for it will not pan out. Ie accelerationists will not see something better after collapse with our current environment. Seeing the west fall to fascists will see the subjugation of less developed countries to higher degrees, collapses of freedoms and prosperity worldwide, such as they are.
