When half your feed becomes nothing but trousers and beans and planes, it gets really fatiguing after the umpteenth day of it in a row. It was amusing for a bit, but people have taken that ball too far for my own personal enjoyment.
US political “memes” at a time when the campaign for the next elections there is already informally going, are especially “special” - “this guy is nice”, “this guy is mean”, “vote for our guy” messaging is not at all Satire, it’s Propaganda even when in wannabe-meme form.
Ehh, smaller community, so a little bit slower for trends to fade. I’m ok with it though; I don’t expect nonstop-fresh content here and I like that. People are able to post without bot-mods rejecting every submission… makes people feel included. So you kinda get a slower trend-fade, as people come-up with ideas. I get your point, but no reason to be crass about it. Try and lift each other up and what-not
And that’s absolutely fine. You’re allowed to not enjoy stuff. Lecturing others for enjoying stuff together without hurting anyone, on the other hand, is just petty and authoritarian fun policing in my opinion, though 🤷
I always love how it’s the people advocating for an unregulated shit show calling everyone else facists if we won’t let you destroy something that others enjoy.
If you check my history, you’ll find that I’m very much in favor of common sense regulation where needed and the only people I call fascists are actual fascists like Donald Trump, Vladimir Putin and Benjamin Netanyahu.
Others posting a meme you don’t like anymore isn’t destroying Lemmy. Please stop being an overdramatic wet blanket and just let people enjoy their jemes until they too get tired of them and move on to the next thing.
Don’t know whether to upvote for the comic being funny or downvote for the “you’re not having fun the right way!” lecture…
Ah fuck it, I’ll do the former.

I’ll take jeanposting over political memes 9/10 times.

Whoa, where’d you dig up that gigantic strawman??

I agree that it can get fatiguing after umpteen days, but it’s only been like a day or two.
