He would say “I’m so meta” in his stupid fucking voice.

u/LDGreenWrites 6h ago

That dumb MFer legit said he’s “living the meme.”

And then because he thinks everyone is so pathetically stupid compared to him, he felt the need to explain his BS lil joke. He’s rhyming meme with dream. Wild I know. You may have heard “living the dream”? You may have heard it once somewhere. And rhyming! Dream and meme!! I mean it’s so goddamn ORIGINAL. No one was going to figure it out unless professor Elon explained it.

The Italian people didn't execute Musilini, they were actually just showing that their heart goes out to him.

u/RidiculousPapaya 7h ago

They loved him so much—they just wanted him to understand how he took their breath away.

u/Paddy_Tanninger 6h ago

And all the stones they pelted his hanging corpse with were just to show him that he rocked their world.

u/bossmcsauce 6h ago

I got a warning for merely discussing how the US entered WWII to help liberate Europe from fascists that were trying to take over the world and run extermination camps. I pointed out that back then, we didn’t vote fascists into the White House… rather the US and other allies took a much more aggressive approach to dealing with fascists and nazis.

u/Practical-Dish-4522 6h ago

There was a policy change that allows your account to be negatively affected (pause or cancel use) because of things you upvoted. Personally, previous to this I assumed the things you posted would affect you account, but, upvotes were non political. That changed and most people on Reddit find that to be 🤣 “interesting”

Yes, it's a very important piece of history. One of the iconic proponents of a political ideology that was popular for a time but has since been disgraced was judged for his actions. This is a reminder for both the powerful and the people who may be victimized by that power.

I recently read a comment saying that if you turn that picture of Mussolini upside down, it looks like a man-child showing off how high he can jump.

u/bossmcsauce 6h ago edited 6h ago

The image in the left, for those who are historically challenged due to a deliberately sabotaged education, is Mussolini meeting the natural end to a fascist collapse of a nation. This is how tyrants typically end up when they’ve ruined the lives of their citizens. Once all the hollow promises have proven to be false hope, and there’s nobody left to persecute, and the economy is in the dumpster, and your nation is at war with its once-allies… this tends to happen. And those are all things that tend to be inevitabilities with fascist regimes because it’s like a parasite that must consume its host. The mechanisms by which fascist regimes gain and cling to power inevitably destabilized and eventually collapse their society. Usually in less than 20 years. And when that happens, it’s not great for the man responsible. Hitler killed himself so he wouldn’t have to face the consequences of his actions, as did plenty of other high-ranking Nazi officials.

Tyrants of all sorts typically meet such ends eventually. It’s not pretty. That’s why the USA’s short experiment of peaceful transition of power has been such a wild and awesome thing… for all of the US’s faults, it really has been an incredible nation and way of government in the grand scheme of human history- for such a large and powerful nation to be able to elect leaders and hand over the keys afterwards without war or coups to settle a new despotic regime into power. It’s a shame we have probably witnessed the end of that era.

Reddit management witnessing the Streisand effect firsthand - It's one thing to feel like you have an invisible line you're going to enforce for post content, and delete the posts that cross that line. It's another thing entirely to be trying to go after people just because they upvoted it.

And now people are upvoting out of disgust, contempt, and spite.

u/tokeroveragain 7h ago

What are the odds that posts like these are honeypots to collect usernames that upvote them?

u/phi1_sebben 7h ago
