Israel is an apartheid state with a stupid racist wall, I guess that's why you and Netanyahu are such great snugglebunnies

Silver (HOW?!?)
I will hereby respectJeff Tiedrichand I will NOT talk down on the future first-ballot Hall of Famer.
As far as I can tell, he's basically a random web designer who got traction on Twitter with criticism of Trump. It's kind of impressive how prolific a dude can be out of nowhere.
He was basically one of Trump's reply guys when he was still on Twitter. Whenever Trump posted he was right under there with his take, and it gave off very resistance lib vibes.
This appears to be a political memes community, not a news one, and meme posts are not typically high effort. I’m not really a meme guy, this is likely my only comment on a meme community, but it doesn’t take expertise to see how snarky twitter twitter posts fit in the contemporary form of meme communities.
Weird how prevalent things like this are on the internet. It’s a designated meme place and you’ll still find comments trying to assert superiority over meme people. Lemmy’s too small to have mass upvote bots so clearly people of the community enjoy it, just let them have their posts. Not getting a popular-to-some thing (I will admit I don’t understand this post either) doesn’t make you cooler or better than the community that does understand it. I bet there’s a niche something that one of your communities likes— would you want someone like you dropping in and saying this?
And I get it: meme communities are kind of the lowest common denominator, though I’d argue that doesn’t make meme enjoyers lesser or worthy of ridicule. I’m not sure why I’m defending it either when yours is just one of millions of identical condescending comments, and I could’ve waited until tomorrow for the next guy to say this about a less popular niche that would be easier to speak up for.
Sounds like it was given by people that like Trump? I guess? Had no idea there was a collective nickname for people that hate Trump. Thanks for the links.
