So… the majority of people in the South of the USA are racists, fascists, Magaheads. Should we consider that the Norm?
No?
So we cannot use the tiny sample of Lemmings as a norm. Just saying.
There are a million memes. I can’t know about all of them.
As regards to my reply — I was more concerned that you somehow think I’m defending Bush. It’s super weird. Are you okay?
Are you ready to view one in which the body of Mathew Shepard is shown dangling from the fence with the words: me at the end of a very hard week
your move here should have been:
This is just the Murderer Bush learning that the second plane struck. There was no body count at this point.
And that’s true.
Look. Bush is a murder, psychopath and incompetent.
This whole conversation has simply been about the tastelessness that someone who uses this moment as a format takes.
It’s as tasteless as using an image of a raping a woman and having the text be: Me winning the lottery.
Evidence:
The vast majority of memes are related to niche personalities or even non-famous people or animals…
And even those that are related to someone recognizable… it’s never someone learning about the deaths of 3000 people …
Yeah… okay.
Let’s just move on?

It’s funny that you being up logic.
It would have mean that you were following the thread.
My claim: The Bush meme template is tasteless.
That’s all I’ve been suggesting.
Reason: living relatives of the thousands of victims find it painful.
Evidence: personal experience
That’s it.
But just to suggest that a meme template that might be offensive to others
Imagine an image of a man raping a woman and he had a joyful smile on his face. The tagline: When I get my final in at 11:59pm and the assignment closes at midnight
Pretty sure some people would find that offensive?
I lost my parents in 9/11 and not a single person here had an ounce of sympathy. It was sociopathic.
It’s a very bizarre rabbit hole.
The Saudiee surely funded Binladen if we are to believe any of the official story.
And it’s regrettable that Bush allowed them to get off the hook.
And later some Saudi prince murdered Jamal Khashoggi.
All shit from beginning to end.
I’m bored as fuck of this conversation.
Use the template or not.
I’m not going to because it’s distasteful to the relatives of the Americans murdered in the attack. You won’t see me using any templates of smart bombs murdering innocent people in Afghanistan or the Middle East because that too would be tasteless.
I’m glad I got under all these little babies skin though. I’m one person with 300 downvotes for a single comment.
What I learned from this is the Lemmy is filled with a bunch brittle fucking crybabies.
I’ve already said this elsewhere but memes are not associated with the person, they are associated with the moment, concept, idea.
Fuck George Bush — he’s a fucking mass murderer.
In other words: murdering 3000 people should surely not have consequences.
If you can’t understand that it does, you’ll be an actual grown up.
And that’s pretty much the ancient schoolyard taunt, “I know you are but what am I?” Pretty sure we’re done here.
Wait… no trigger warnings ever? Awesome.
You’re like a snake enjoying a dessert of its own tail.
Welcome to your truth free world. Hope that works out for ya.
When truths are taken for insults, it’s time to find a mirror.
Double down all you like. It’s the moment. Enjoy being wrong, brittle, little, sis, white male.
It’s a meme because it’s an iconic moment.
It’s not a person. That’s the whole point of memes.
Sorry to school you in this, but one again, you are wrong.
Tastelessness is wrong. Trust me.
