And yet, the alt-right (where this meme stems from) uses something they don't give a shit about but the left does (Russian election interference) to push for something they do give a shit about but the left doesn't (voter ID). It's disingenuous, and similar to the astroturfing of #WalkAway.


It's a troll. And the amount of triggering it's causing is mission accomplished level.

The hypocrisy is that Democrats want to prevent interference from one threat but interference from another whether it's substantiated or not doesn't matter.

Like I said you're taking things way too literalistically. Not sure why you're so triggered by such a simple meme.


If someone is going to make a gotcha meme exposing hypocrisy, there needs to actually be some hypocrisy exposed. Like I said, it's a lame meme appealing to false right-wing narratives.

For something to be a "gotcha" phrase, it'd have to expose some sort of hypocrisy from the other side. This meme doesn't, unless you buy into a bunch of false right-wing narratives.

There's plenty of funny right-wing memes put out... this is not it.


I thought it was funny. Iv seen many "left wing" posters here kick a fuss about voter ID to restrict illegal votes which if an illegal votes it has an impact on election results much like the claimed Russian interference.

I'd say the picture did its job.

People aren't against voter ID because they're worried illegals won't be able to vote. If you make memes about your political opponents, you should maybe understand their viewpoints.

I know why they're actually concerned. Just because this picture ruined your day dosent mean you can't have a chuckle.

Like I said based on your tone I'd say it did its job.

This is my normal tone... I can't help it if it triggers you right-wing snowflakes.

I'd say people had a laugh at a picture while others got riled up.

Are you really this dense?

Many memes are based on irony, half-truths, hyperboles, 'gotcha' and so on. How autistic would someone look trying to critique a meme where Putin and Trump are kissing like you are with this one. "ACHYUALLY, Trump and Putin never kissed herp derp" You are that person right now.
