The definition of a "meme" here is intentionally pretty loose. Images, screenshots, and the like are welcome!
But, keep it lighthearted and/or within our server's ideals.

And yet most of the political forces in France are advocating to remove all these rights. Sindicalists are arrested under terrorist laws, as are eco-activists. And maires trying to enforce price ceiling for lawns in cities are considered like Staline.
Sure and that is bad.
What does it have to do with the discussion though? Or is it "west bad" whatever happens?
So as long as the litteral nazis are not in charge genociding people it's fine and there's nothing to worry about? Syndicalistes and ecoactivists being arrested for terrorism is fine already?
So "west bad" it is then.
I mean if the above things are what defines the west then yeah. But I don't think they do, or at least they don't have to - I believe we stand for better things than that - for liberty, for democracy and welfare of all and I believe in progress, not complacency and decay thinly veiled by whataboutism.
