Well, the one to the right (probably) isn't a tankie though, but I approve their actions
Political Memes
Welcome to politcal memes!
These are our rules:
Be civil
Jokes are okay, but don’t intentionally harass or disturb any member of our community. Sexism, racism and bigotry are not allowed. Good faith argumentation only. No posts discouraging people to vote or shaming people for voting.
No misinformation
Don’t post any intentional misinformation. When asked by mods, provide sources for any claims you make.
Posts should be memes
Random pictures do not qualify as memes. Relevance to politics is required.
No bots, spam or self-promotion
Follow instance rules, ask for your bot to be allowed on this community.
IIRC, this was posted earlier today on the lemmy.ml instance, and very, very quickly deleted by a mod.
...Which undermines the central claim.
Dude, those cowards over there will remove and ban people just for being liberal. No joke. It’s in the mod logs. Those clowns even put it as the ban reason.
And yet, the minions that flock to those shitholes come to these communities and and whine about bias and how they’re treated unfairly.
I dunno. Have you noticed that the guy is portrayed as a soyjak?
They didn't want anyone getting any funny ideas about tankies. Like that they weren't braindead, authoritarian boot lickers.
Hey, if tankies were gonna vote for Biden to thwart trump, we wouldn’t have a problem. It’s that most that I’ve seen explicitly say they won’t. And they advocate that people shouldn’t. So - i don’t get it.
Lol the post you made this as a response to literally has tankies calling themselves tankies and stating that they will not vote for Biden.
Seethe harder.
Gotta say, I'm confused as to why Dale Earnhardt is in this meme...
Raise hell praise Dale
For Trump supporters it's more like "Organize, Vote, Racist".
When there are people that are still voting, even if it’s not for Biden, I disagree with it, but only politely. It’s still your right as American.
But that isn’t the message going out in so many of these memes. Barely any content encourages any specific candidate, and evokes ridiculous concepts like “A vote for Biden is a vote for genocide” - without putting forward an alt candidate that has a genuine plan to prevent genocide (obviously, Trump is not one).
The reason I’m fine with generally just ensuring people vote, whoever it’s for, is because statistically Democrats win elections that more people vote for. I have faith that genuine, fair popularity contests will go my way.
While true, I can still be pissed off that Dems force me to vote for someone I don’t want instead of offering someone about whom I can be enthused.
You could also look at it as Trump forcing you to do everything you can to protect democracy from collapsing in on itself like a dying star.
I don't know much about US presidential candidates, but maybe all of you can vote for this Brandon person if the other side doesn't like Biden?
"Neoliberal shill" who has achieved more leftist policy goals in three and a half years than all US leftists combined have in the last 30.
I actually love this model:
Biden supporters: "Unite around candidate Biden or prepare to watch Democracy die!"
Biden detractors: "You guys are nuts! That old bastard can barely put 3 sentences together. I will argue we should have a younger more vibrant candidate like Big Gretch who would wipe the floor with Trump all the way until I vote for Biden's senile ass on November 5th!"
Biden supporter: "You dumb fucks, Whitmer herself says she isn't interested and is all-in for Biden! But she'd be a great candidate and I would fully support her if Biden steps down and she was the nominee. But he won't, so pull your heads out of your asses and support him!"
Like, if we gotta argue, let's have fun with it and just vote 100% for dems top to bottom on November 5th.
