Am I missing something? Is this saying there is similarity between an innocent victim of a genocide with someone who is creating a new genocide on another group of people?

[–] [email protected] 16 points 14 hours ago* (last edited 14 hours ago) (2 children)

The meme is being misused since the situation in the show is 180 degrees from its use in memes. In the show, Pam pranks a dude by giving him two identical pictures and then admits that it's the same picture.

In memes, people thought that Pam was the one that was given the assignment. So in this meme, Pam is US / US government. And to the US there is no difference between pictures when given the assignment of distinguishing between a victim of Holocaust and the current head of Israeli government that is actively comitting genocide.

I dont think it is a misuse when labeling the Pam character differently. It doesnt match the show, but the meme works bothfor things you think are the same and ofr things someone else thinks are the same that is really different.

On the other hand, see how many people are confused.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 12 hours ago

Thank you very much

[–] [email protected] 3 points 15 hours ago

By default the open source/decentralized social media movement was galvanized by idealistic and political groups who were unsatisfied with corporate social media — mainly being the libertarian-flavored, pro-free speech free software types that flourished in the early software industry, the right wing activists that proliferated in the mid 00s/early 2010s, and left-wing factions of many types fighting capitalism.

Lemmy in particular was started by developers in the communist space, and has since attracted other segments of the left and center to seed its culture.

Many segments of popular communities here are liberal or even centrist now, but the background, core user base of Lemmy retains at least a socially progressive, anti-or-critical-capitalist lens, if not further left.

It's probably state and political organizations trying to influence the election by implicitly trashing the democrats, there are farms of memers from conservative countries and organizations trying to imply that the democrats are the authoritarian party to rattle the cages of voters.

it happened in 2016 and 2020, and every American intelligence agency has been publicly cautioning voters for years that electoral manipulation through indirect methods like memes and social media posts are definitely being perpetrated by unfriendly countries and is only increasing.

It's a pretty interesting story that not many people talk about, but a lot of political memes on the internet are supplied by foreign state actors willfully trying to influence American elections, and in the case of 2016, successfully affected the outcome of the American election for the conservatives according to intelligence agencies.

Jeez I'm just some rando reminding yanks they are genociders for free. How stupid is this? I'm just appaled by war crimes and you guys threat to invade the haag.

But now I'm learning I could get paid to insult yanks? Sounds like a great job. Would you have the address of a recruiter or something? I need a side-hussle.

The McCarthidiots are really out there saying all criticism of america's action must come from some siberian call centers lmao

This is not trashing democrats, and republicans would be worse. This is trashing all the ignorant peopel who don't understand the difference.

[–] [email protected] -1 points 8 hours ago (5 children)

Bro, u don't need foreign authors to do that. The very same person that did and does that there, teach Bolsonaro and his MFs to do the same in Brazil. USA problem is not foreign authors, but inside job, even when them (Trump and his followers, backed by Steve Bannon and tons of money from people like Musk) hire external actors to do so.

One of the biggest problems of USA lies in the fact that united stadians (sorry, I refuse to call them Americans and prefer to create a name) always think that their country is being attacked, harassed and assaulted by evil external actors that wants the end of USA when these actors are, mainly, internal. And most of the externals, also hired by internal actors.

But, I admit that it is being nice to see the end of USA as an empire (even though they will die shooting and killing millions, like we are seeing in Ukraine, Gaza, Lebanon, Siria, Libia and many others)

Don't see the link between this meme and the US election. I bet this is a widely shared understanding of the situation outside the US.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 16 hours ago (4 children)

I'm gonna agree with varik here. I've noticed a deliberate contingent of "pro-Palestinian" who are clearly siphoning votes from Harris. They seem to be targeting naive leftists and Midwest Muslims, and they always intentionally obfuscate just how much more brutal and awful Trump would be.

Everything is political. You just have an easier time noticing politics on Lemmy because it's more honest here.

NSFW because it is 18+ to show whores like Netanyahu and USA

[–] [email protected] 47 points 20 hours ago (2 children)

Whores deserve a lot more respect than that

[–] [email protected] 8 points 16 hours ago

Indeed, you're totally right. Sorry, whores, btw.

[–] [email protected] 25 points 20 hours ago (1 children)

Whores also let you fuck them and have a good time, those two rape you and charge you for it

[–] [email protected] 4 points 16 hours ago

And in the end make the whole world think YOU are the rapist

Americans think Israel is like the Jewish victims of the Holocaust. But Israel is an apartheid colonization project founded on violence. Anne Frank is not the same as Benjamin Netanyahu.

Oh, ok, I did actually understand it, I just didn't understand it. Thanks friend! Very helpful.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 16 hours ago (1 children)

I think you do, and you want someone to spend too much time typing an explanation of the obvious.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 hours ago

I actually didn't but someone else did explain it. Thank you though!

[–] [email protected] -2 points 11 hours ago (1 children)

This is a very clever use of this meme. Good work OP!
