dank memes

Rules:

  1. All posts must be memes and follow a general meme setup.

  2. No unedited webcomics.

  3. Someone saying something funny or cringe on twitter/tumblr/reddit/etc. is not a meme. Post that stuff in /c/slop

  4. Va*sh posting is haram and will be removed.

  5. Follow the code of conduct.

  6. Tag OC at the end of your title and we'll probably pin it for a while if we see it.

  7. Recent reposts might be removed.

  8. Tagging OC with the hexbear watermark is praxis.

  9. No anti-natalism memes. See: Eco-fascism Primer

Back when memes were funny.

[–] Owl@hexbear.net 26 points 8 months ago

I remember this meme!

I've kept an eye out for an opportunity to work a Brazilian Number Pun into a conversation ever since, to no avail.

[–] Evilsandwichman@hexbear.net 26 points 8 months ago

For comparison, the USSR killed 32 Brazillion people.

I got this image in a birthday card

I thought it was very funny when I was 11

[–] RyanGosling@hexbear.net 6 points 8 months ago

"In 2002, I went to visit Bush and he came with a 40-minute lecture telling me how important it was to end terrorism. He called on Brazil to take part in what he called an extraordinary fight to end terrorism by invading Iraq. I simply said to him: I don't know Saddam Hussein," he said.

According to Lula, during the conversation he said that Iraq was a long way from Brazil and he was already facing another war. "I had another war: hunger. In my country, hunger affected 54 million people. And I was going to win that war," he added.

Bush seemed to have enjoyed a good relation with Lula weirdly enough. He was always calling him to help in diplomacy with Iran, Cuba or Venezuela. Obama tried to do the same thing but Hillary Clinton did everything possible to sabotage the Lula's Iran nuclear deal.

back when people were still naive enough to think anyone in government would be sad about people dying en masse

Huh huh he dumb. So profound!

[–] whatup@hexbear.net 5 points 8 months ago

Most jokes r supposed to be dumb. That’s why they’re funny.

[–] oregoncom@hexbear.net 4 points 8 months ago

Insults don't have to be profound.

[–] oregoncom@hexbear.net 21 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Actually this is very funny.

[–] HexbearGPT@hexbear.net 8 points 8 months ago (2 children)

Huh huh he mispronounces words. He so dumb!

Basically Marx’s Das Kapital innit?

[–] Evilsandwichman@hexbear.net 13 points 8 months ago

he was actually a bloodthirsty ghoul and son of a CIA director who put on a fake folksy accent in order to win over dumb football chuds and then proceeded to plunge america into an incredibly profitable war. And then liberal bozos pretended he was just this dumb folksy yokel being manipulated by darth cheney and not born for this shit.

Hard disagree. Bush supporters were always cringe and the jokes about them were way more hilarious and creative than the post-2016 ones about Trump. Bush Shootout and Legos 9-11 fucking rocked. Michael Moore was my introduction to anti-imperialism, and to my knowledge, he still has good takes on foreign policy.

[–] solitaire@infosec.pub 11 points 8 months ago (1 children)

The image of Bush in front of the mission accomplished banner still cracks me up to this day.

[–] HexbearGPT@hexbear.net 10 points 8 months ago

You were just a lib and so have nostalgic feelings for it. I was an anti-capitalist watching liberals water down the anti-globalization movement and the post-9/11 anti-war movement. They took over what had potential to be radical movements and made everything shallow and awful.

[–] zed_proclaimer@hexbear.net 5 points 8 months ago

I think they aged better than the anti-Trump cringe

[–] M68040@hexbear.net 17 points 8 months ago

I still have a NOS “A village in Texas has lost its idiot” sticker lying around here somewhere

Then an eagle landed on the chalkboard and asked: "is our children learning?"
