Just had to out this somewhere and this is probably the most safe space for it.

I am an ultra left anarchist so i support any progress shift in us political polls and i do get it.

I dont and wont ask people to stop using effective political memes. But whenever i see a top comment labeled these bad people as weird, i feel like i too would not be accepted, even if i know thats not what its about.

Sorry.

    !remind me 8 years.

    This will have the consequence of weird, once again, only being negative.

    I predict it will become like the word gay and will need to be redeemed/reclaimed in the same way in the future

      I doubt it. Trends, be they catch-phrases, or be they memes- just don’t have the shelf-life they used to. We consume and forget. That’s our culture.

      Now had this happened in the 70’s? Forget about it. We’d STILL be going by that paradigm now.
