    I dont know for fact, but I treat any political meme like it might.

    I don’t really think this is a rational or particularly healthy stance to take on political memes. I can maybe understand if your stance was just “keep the worldnews posts serious”, though I’d disagree with that too. But saying that you’re trying to avoid Russian influence by avoiding memes is… idk. Doesn’t really make sense to me. Political memes aren’t inherently Russian.

    You also have to consider Russia’s like, motives here. I don’t really see a reason for them to want to make pudding jokes about DeSantis.

        you totally might be, but the bare fact that you had to say this to someone today should probably prompt you to reflect a bit about all this friend

          They’re mentally healthy for a westerner

          Which is so rabidly racist and xenophobic that they’re calling out random memes for being Russian as an insult

          I’m gonna push back on this fam. It’s peak reddit-logo libshittery to internet diagnose someone with mental health problems as a way to “critique” their positions. We’re not about that shit.
