I was scrolling through top/day, and all the memes are criticizing America. Oil memes and stuff like that. Why is that (not the memes in themselves, but the near unanimousness of the themes)?
Seems like the guy has dug up his USA bad folder
It’s a bunch of different users.
It’s really not that hard to create multiple accounts on Lemmy.
I’ve seen only NOT_RICHARD@lemmy.today post them. A two day account as well
Because haha america bad. Everyone knows that this is equivalent to breathing air on the internet
It’s definitely not the best
The “america bad” people have a point. The “america bad, Europe good” people are delusional. The US would have to last another 3000 years to even come close to the atrocities committed by Europeans.
That most countries did like centuries ago?
Nice whataboutism though, comrade.
I thought someone might go that route, so I came prepared. Even if we ignore Russia (located in Asia but absolutely culturally European) europeans have been responsible for no less than 6 genocides in the last hundred years.
Europe isn’t a country. Its like 50! So my point still stands.
I don’t really know, but I enjoy the topical rants we go on, whether it’s beans, stroganoff or whatever - it’s fun.
The oil shit has mostly been on point though
…election cycle :(
I think it’s just about the USA, not America as a whole
Fair point, should have thought of that.
It’s nearly election season. Meme machine go burr. Ask Russia, they’ll know.
I thought most of them were from the same guy. One or two were mildly funny, but posting basically the same joke a dozen times in a row is arguably not how to make it shine. Also, a couple people might have heard the ol’ “DAE le USA le oil eggs dee” before.
When I first noticed the memes, I looked at the account making them and it was less than a day old. I just figured they had an axe to grind or it was an election season bot and blocked the account, lol.
It’s probably that one nazbol guy who spams crappy “left” memes who I blocked awhile ago because i’m not seeing anything like that.
EDIT: I also have LW and HB instance blocked (as i’m banned from both) which probably has a lot to do with it as well.
Just today? There are a lot of hardcore people here that are pro China and pro Russia.
USA does bad things
Some people make memes about it
People in the USA:
Let’s make our country accountable for bad thing it doesWhat’s happening? My fee fees are hurt.
Or the most popular:
We don’t even think about your country
Then they call others snowflakes. ㄟ(ツ)ㄏ
