Why can't the left meme?
Why can't the left meme?

I'll bite.
1 They have nothing in common so they can't share iconography, they just consume they can't own or create.
2 They can't have fun, they are indoctrinated to see things as allies or enemies so everything is interpreted as that wich makes them blind to irony or self reflection.
3 Everything is a platform, to them everything should carry a message or be interpreted as a message wich makes the memes ineffective in self propagation as they aren't memes just propaganda, they don't self replicate because their purpose is to spread an idea.
That's why the left can't meme, they have no soul.

>1 They have nothing in common
This is beyond true. If you ask them about their political ideology they will start listing absurd branches of a certain sect.
This is like grouping sunnis and shias.
Kevin Hughes
They are too concerned about not offending the wrong people that they can't make anything that actually has bite to it.
That's why, at best, they can only parody other memes by putting trump hats on them or use something completely non-sensical like that orange plush monster.

You need soul to meme. There are few there who can, but they are minority and eventually understand that "left" is entirely made by merchant and leave.

they can. they just won't. they have the programming within them to rise up, but they won't. they were built a gigantic giant strawman of a fleshlight politically, their entire lifespan. and they're eager to sink their political dicks into it. they claim their opponents won't question anything, but they won't question anything themselves either. especially the things that are painful to question.

thats an anti-liberal meme right? am i dumb?
ok, but the left cant meme cause they are de-coupled from the truth of the world. they live in a world of intellectual artifact.
memes are funny because they're true on some level. often they speak to a truth that that is taboo, which makes them funnier and stickier

Because they're wrong. Satire only works if you have truth to what you're saying.

Noah Rodriguez
oh, well its bad at that imo . it doesn't relate to any boomer memes i've ever seen, it just looks like a mediocre-bad anti-lib meme with a aesthetic thats aping old MDE
Josiah Gutierrez
I'm not seeing how boomers and the joker and liberal hair cuts have anything in common. Seems like it's just random humor. No real deep meaning

For countries that have submitted themselves to mass immigration, it is quite literally trying to group Sunnis and Shias... There's no "like" at all.

The left has memed the concept of "racism" into every white persons skull so hard that it's committing civilization scale suicide.
Stop underestimating the enemy. Hitler bemoaned how the entente BTFO if the Germans in propoganda because the Germans tried to paint their enemies as silly and the Anglos painted Germans as vicious real threats and that worked so much better. Learn from history.
Colton Rodriguez
If it had any real meaning, it would mean it supports a particular idea. The left cannot agree on any ideas other than "Orange man bad", and if you are on the left and don't agree, then you are alt-right, not left. Therefore, the meme must be devoid of any real idea, other than Republicans vaguely bad and dumb in some non-descript way.

Memes reached their peak, it's all about irony posting now, boomer.
Joshua Bell
It's meant to be their parody of how they see right-wing memes mocking them. They think they're being satirical.
Robert Price
That's subversion not memeing.
They deconstructed the values of the west while appealing to them.
They told lies and cried racism because even if it wasn't true the damage was already done.
They cry as they strike you is our meme for that reason as we being a group share that experience.
They cried racist and forced apologies out of fear of being shunned from society.
It's the oldest truck in their book denounce and live apologizing to be an ally or become an outcast by the values you once held.
This is also why the left remains cohesive despite not sharing anything, they fear leaving the mass as they know wrong think will make them a target of the same tactic, it's the equivalent of a cult holding you hostage by your own confessions and why you can't leave them.
They only know how to subvert and propagandize but they lack the basic elements of humanity to create a self replicating concept that spreads through mankind.
